Originally from Cairo-Egypt, Dr Atteya has had over 25 years of experience as a dentist. He moved to Australia in 2010, and he now calls Melbourne home.

Dr Atteya is a mentor and a clinical lecturer and an examiner for the final year dental students at the University of Melbourne. He was also appointed as an adjunct lecturer at La Trobe University where he was focusing on treatment planning in General Dentistry for dentists and oral health therapists. He also lectures on Clear Aligner Therapy, Dental implants, and Dental Career/Business Development.
As a clinician, Dr Atteya has worked in multiple private practices in Melbourne where he gained an extensive valuable experience and still enjoys all aspects of dentistry, with particular interest in Periodontics, Implant Dentistry as well as Oral Surgery.
