Brett Hansen-Dent (born July 2, 1972) is a former professional tennis player from the United States.
Hansen-Dent is a step-son of Australian Davis Cup player Phil Dent and step-brother of former tennis professional Taylor Dent. When he was 10, the family moved to Australia, where they lived for four years, before returning to California. He went to school at Newport Harbor High.
Hansen-Dent was a mixed doubles goal medalist at the 1991 Summer Universiade in Sheffield, partnering Susan Gilchrist. He was also a member of the American squad which competed at the Pan American Games that year, in Havana, Cuba.
In 1991 and 1992, Hansen-Dent played collegiate tennis for the University of California, Irvine, then spent a year away touring.
