Excellent and professional hygienists and dentists. While I was having my cleaning done I listened to some soothing meditation-type music coming from the TV in the hygienist's room. I haven't had regular dental care in quite some time and was very pleased that I was x-rayed and photographed from every conceivable angle and was also given a thorough cancer screening by the dentist, Dr. Mohammed. As a result of the x-rays, I discovered I have periodontal disease and am now taking fastidious care of my teeth and gums; I'm using a gum detoxifying toothpaste that the hygienist gave me a sample of, a mouthwash that she recommended and flossing properly as she showed me. The only negative for me is that I think the reception staff could be less perfunctory...be a little more welcoming when patients arrive which would help alleviate nervousness (about both the visit and the bill). read more

Have you ever had the type of thing that was beyond your control but was terribly uncomfortable, to the point of embarrassing? Something that you were aware of everyday, when you eat, when you smile , even when you breath? Or a fear that the cure could be worse than the ailment? I have, and Dr. Rival and Staff at East Gate Dental Centre put my pain and mind at ease, resulting in a beautiful smile and a healthy happy relationship with my Dental health team! I was so apprehensive about going to the dentist after a series of health events which resulted in unhealthy teeth and gums. Let's face it, I was down right scared. That was until I got to know the staff at East Gate Dental Centre. They all took the time to explain things to me and listen to my concerns. I actually felt like I was part of the process of reconstructing my new found dental health. At East Gate Dental Centre, from reception all the way through, everyone is so friendly, professional, gentle, understanding and knowledgeable. Dr. Rival, the Dental Surgeon, is amazing! I am honoured to say that he has worked on, and continues to work on my teeth. His chair side manor is beyond comforting. Dr. Rival takes the time to explain what needs to be done, explains options and makes sure you understand what is happening and why, which is exactly how it should be. My teeth went from being an embarrassment to being one of my features I show off all of the time. I could not be happier!! Thank you East Gate Dental Centre! Thank you, thank you, thank you, Dr Rival for giving me back my smile. After all, the most attractive curve on a woman is her smile. read more

What a wonderful dental clinic. Dr. Mohammad is my dentist who replaced a dentist I saw for 56 years. She understood my fear of seeing a new dentist and put those fears aside. Fabulous bed-side manner - explains everything as she goes along and makes sure that I in no way feel any pain. She is so patient and nice. I am so happy I decided to go there. The hours are so accommodating. I never have to worry about my dental appointments interfering with my work schedule. Open Sundays too! I would recommend Eastgate Dental to everyone! Oh and one more thing which is so awesome is that sometimes I get nervous and she lets my husband come in with me and sit there - holding my hand. I'm a chicken unfortunately but I've never been in pain so I don't know why I do this. Again, thank you Dr. Mohammed! read more

Worst attitude by the Dr. Gave up trying to fix my tooth when it wouldn't freeze. Left me worse off before I came in.
