I've had my fair share of dental problems, and when first coming in to see Dr. Mah I had a whole new set to deal with. However this go-around, I felt the most at-ease than with any dentist I'd ever seen before. The level of professionalism from Dr. Mah is really unlike any I've experienced before. He really takes the time to explain everything to you from start to finish in a way that really makes you feel comfortable about every decision made. I was particularly impressed with the face-to-face introduction I had with him as well as the presentation he gave after my first exam so we could go over the "game plan" for getting my teeth as good as new. He fixed up my mouth SO well! He even fixed botched fillings that plagued me for so long I thought I was stuck feeling that way forever. What a relief that was! He's now my husband's dentist as well, and the both of us couldn't be happier with both him and his staff. We feel we're in very good hands here!

I'm a new patient of Dr. Mah's and thus far, I feel he's great. Through his consultative approach,…read morewe were able to identify potential areas that could be improved upon that I hadn't though of before. He was able to provide me several solutions when possible and helped me weigh the benefits and pitfalls of all of them. I feel like Dr. Mah is a partner with a shared goal of ensuring my dental health is optimal and also assisting me with to improve the overall aesthetics of my mouth/ teeth. I couldn't be more appreciative of Dr Mah and his team :)

In short, I had an excellent experience with Dr. Low…read more I had two cavities in molars with fillings that needed replacement, both of which were large. One of the fillings had been done by another dentist, which had bothered me and left a big gap between teeth since it had been done. Dr. Low did a very thorough and careful job, lessening the gap and I've had no problems since. There were a few things that stood out during my visit. I have always experienced quite a lot of discomfort/pain when being shot with local anesthetic, but Dr. Low had a very good technique which lessened the discomfort considerably. I also found it ingenious that there were sunglasses provided while he was doing the work, so the bright light and splashes weren't noticeable. He informed me what he was doing each step of the way, unlike most of the dentists I've been to in the past, and this really put me at ease. I will definitely be returning to him in the future and highly recommend Dr. Low if you are looking for a thorough, competent, and courteous dentist.

Dr. Kaveh is an excellent dentist. His technical skills surpasses all the other dentists I've…read morevisited over the years. There is so much he can do himself without having to refer you to another specialist. I had a root canal done with him and is in the process of getting an implant now. I'm more confident at going to a dentist now because of Dr. Kaveh because he's made all my visits much less painful since I'm not good at managing pain and is terrified of dentists. His pricing is reasonable and he's a really kind person who is very dedicated to his field. Thank you Dr. Kaveh M LIM

Dental is important to me. Ever since I was a child, careful tooth brushing and dental care has…read morebeen a priority, despite being a Brit - where everyone assumes we don't care about oral hygiene. A close and trusted friend recommended their dentist of 15 years - Dr Newitt - earlier this year when I didn't trust my other family dentist in Kitsilano anymore. Set above Chapters, this little dentist has a middle-of-the-road kinda look and feel, but it's Dr Newitt's professionalism, focus and no-nonsense approach that gets 5-stars. He doesn't chitter chatter whilst doing his work (which means he's focusing our your teeth! read: no errors!). He has his space observatory style magnification system, laser system and goodness knows whatever appropriately named dentistwizardry. I asked for more pain relief (I get nervous) and he obliged. He's a gentleman. My husband and I have been many times now for filling replacements, crown fitting/replacement, hygienist, mouth guard consultation - and each time I was delighted with the service. Dr Newitt will refer you to the best people in their field for larger more specialist jobs (braces, retainers, bone grafts). Why delighted? Whenever I had fillings elsewhere, there would be errors - they'd mess up and would have to keep going back (read: pay more). So far, Dr Newitt focuses on the job, and gets it done perfectly - first time. And that's the most important thing to me. And I hope to have a very long dental relationship with his practice, despite the 40 minute drive from Burnaby each time :)

Dr. Newitt and his team are amazing. My last Vancouver dentist experience was nothing short of…read moreabysmal. I had a pretty grim outlook on vancouver's dentistry practices before visiting Dr. Newitt's office. Tammy is the office's administrative superwoman and she is incredible. Her great jokes and friendly demeanor instantly put me at ease. Dr. Newitt himself is funny, professional and also has a great sense of humour and is interesting to talk to. It's really nice to have a group of people that genuinely seem to have an interest in what they do and the well-being of their clients/patients. Thanks for the great experience.

I was referred here by a colleague of mine when I moved to Vancouver and needed to go to the…read moredentist. They are awesome! (Awesome enough to make me want to write a yelp review!) On your first visit to the office, you don't sit down in the dentist chair right away - instead Dr. Marshall takes you into his office and has a little "teeth chat" - he goes over any problems you've had in the past, worries/concerns you have, or hopes for the future. Yes, hopes for your teeth. Then you're ushered into the light and airy dental chair areas and get the inspections done by fantastic hygienists (Mel is awesome!) while getting a view of the North Shore mountains. They also have blankets for you if you ever feel chilly! They are very thorough - whenever you need work done, the dentists explain exactly what has happened, and the various courses of action that they can take to fix it. I've often sat in the chair with a hand mirror, while the dentist shows me something on my teeth or gums. Fascinating - these guys really love teeth. They are excellent dentists too - very precise with their work, and I've never had pain when they're working on my mouth! The only downside is that apparently they are on the expensive end of dentistry, but it's totally worth it for me to know that I have experts working on my teeth! However, if money's tight for you, ask them to do an insurance proposal for anything they plan on doing - so you know what you're getting into. The office is always happy to do that, and abide by my wishes! I have referred three of my friends to the Drs Marshall office and everyone has been happy with them too!

My husband and I have been going to see Dr. Bruce Marshall since we moved to Vancouver. He was…read morereferred to us by our neighbor, a Professor of Dentistry from UBC, so we considered that a very credible endorsement. Bruce, his assistant Ting and his hygienist Mel are outstanding. My first visit with Dr. Marshall involved a sit-down in his office with a discussion about my dental health and my goals for my teeth. I had never previously experienced that level of concern over my chompers and it wasn't until then that I realized my teeth had been under-achievers! Dr. Marshall is a fabulous technician but what sets him apart from his peers are his excellent communication skills and his focus on making your dental experience as pleasant as one could have in a dental chair. From the second that you sit down you are told that you are the boss and if something isn't working for you, changes will be made until it does work for you to get the desired result. What other dentist calls you to check how you are doing after a procedure and gives you their personal cell phone number to call if there are any problems once so ever? Other than dentist drills sounding like they are noises being emitted from the final circle of hell (unavoidable), Dr. Marshall has created an environment that even the most fearful dental patient would have to admit is actually quite pleasant. My husband and I have recommended him to friends and colleagues and we would not hesitate to do so again in the future.

I was experiencing a lot of pain with my right wisdom teeth and the very nice ladies at reception quickly book me in to see Dr. Han. The extraction was quick and painless; Dr Han and her assistant walked me through the entire process before and during the extraction and gave me clear directions on how to take care of my wound after. Update: The administrative team is very friendly and works with you and your budget to plan your treatments.

I recently saw Dr. Derek Okamura as a new patient on the recommendation of a friend, and I'm so…read moreglad I did! I had previously been bouncing around dentists after mine retired, and ended up having an unpleasant experience at a corporate dental clinic so I really wanted to find someone non-corporate. To start with, the receptionists were friendly and helpful when I was booking my appointment, and provided reminders as the appointment approached. When I arrived, I was happy to see that they have great COVID protocols in place. They seem to be well organized, and I didn't have to wait for my appointment. Dr. Okamura was wonderful. He's friendly, personable, knowledgeable and very kind. It is obvious that his patients' well being is his utmost concern. He is patient, and takes the time to explain things carefully. He also didn't try to up sell me on all of the things the corporate dental clinic was trying to tell me I needed. His approach is more conservative and careful, which I really appreciated. He shared his plan with me, and was upfront and honest about the issues I have with my teeth. He did a very thorough initial exam, even measuring my jaw and noting issues with how it opens and closes through various tests (I've never had a dentist do this before). I have had a problem with one of my teeth for almost a year now, which several dentists have tried to fix, but Dr. Okamura referred me to a specialist to take a look before we do anything, and I really appreciated that as well. All-in-all it was a great first appointment, and I feel reassured that I have found the right dentist for me!

A childhood trauma with an ahole dentist still makes me nervous, but Dr. Mehio and the team were so kind and so knowledgeable, I can hardly wait to go back. For YEARS my top teeth have been bothering me as they have been getting cramped and crowded with age. My missing teeth and amount of crowns have left me feeling like I don't take care of my teeth - but I DO I SWEAR! For YEARS I've woken up tired, headachey. Dr. Mehio put all this together into a holistic viewpoint, giving a preliminary diagnosis of everything being caused by a misaligned bite. Who knew I had nothing to be ashamed of? That my headaches and sleepless nights could be related! And related to my broken teeth! And painful, sensitive teeth! Dr. Mehio's thoroughness, along with his method of looking at how everything is connected vs isolated symptoms, is result amazing and unfortunately rather unique. Go see him, it's definitely worth the wait.
