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.

I contacted them on Monday after the weekend and they had me in the same Monday at 12pm. Not to look it...they actually did the work. I was there for around 90 minutes getting a filling and new night guard fitted. I've been going to Dr. Ray and Fairview for over 20 years. There is no better dental office. Dr. Dylan actually did the filling yesterday...he is fantastic too. They are true professionals - care about the client first...contentious; provide great communication and are always concerned about what it will cost the patient. I couldn't recommend them more.

About a year and a half ago I moved to the Fairview area and was in need a dentist. To add to…read morethings, I was going to need an understanding dentist, since for 3 years I didn't have extended health coverage and couldn't really afford to see a dentist routinely. This all changed a few months ago when I finally got a real job. Not only did I find an understanding dentist with Dr. Leung, but I also found a dentist who is personable, efficient but thorough, and has a great team. I have always thought I had good dentists while growing up. My childhood, adolescent and twenties-self had dentists that were, all-in-all, pretty good. However, after going to Fairview Dental, my thoughts of what a dentist office can be have been raised. The equipment and techniques used at Fairview Dental are all state-of-the-art. Cameras that can take pictures and videos of your teeth and be displayed on a giant monitor beside you, digital X-rays that take less than a second, fluoride treatments that actually taste good and take less than 30 seconds, and actual comfy dentist chairs are all things used at Fairview Dental. If you have the environment in mind, you'll be pleased to know that the Fairview Dental Centre uses all biodegradable sterilants and cleaners. To add comfort/enjoyment to the visit, there are tvs installed in the ceiling above that you can watch while being worked on. If you want to try and ignore the fact that you're at the dentist, they can provide noise cancelling headphones and the tv remote to change to any of the several channels of tv or music. Although they offer this luxury, I have never chosen to block out all the things going on, since as limited as it is, I've always had a good time having some conversation or listening to the neat facts given by the dentist and hygienists. One thing that I thought was great was that you can provide your email and phone numbers when you book an appointment. A few days before the appointment, depending on the method you chose, they will either call you or send you an email with a reply button that will let them know that you will be there or need to reschedule. For a person on the go and can forget things, I found the use of an electronic reminder and check in a great thing! To add to everything, the pricing and efficiency of the staff is amazing. I needed some extensive dental work lately which included a scaling, polish, filling, discing, and routine checkup. In an hour and a half all was done, and was cheaper than it has ever cost anyone I've known for a "touch up " on a filling. As a nice service, if you're a regular client and are getting married, Fairview Dental will set up an appointment for you to come in for a polishing a week before the wedding for a free polish so you look all good for your photos. Very cool! I cannot express enough how impressed I am with the friendly and efficient staff, modern techniques, and great pricing the Fairview Dental Centre offers. This is a great dental clinic that I will go to for years to come, even if/when I move out of the Fairview area, since it's just that good.

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 :)

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.

Totally inappropriate and dishonest care that resulted in FOUR months of unnecessary pain and…read moresuffering. Who fills ONE cavity on a cracked tooth with TWO cavities in it [which should have been immediately extracted, as I requested], then does a PARTIAL "root canal" and doesn't inform you that it's incomplete, allowing you to discover - upon seeing a reputable dentist - that there's a needle or a file left behind in the tooth in which the partial root canal was done? Who notes that you have a mouth infection but doesn't prescribe antibiotics, allowing you to suffer over an entire weekend with swelling and extreme pain? Who ignores your questions as to the inappropriate/inadequate work he did on your mouth? Dr. Goswami does. That's the START of my review. Much could be added. His office staff seem inept, incapable of getting appointment times and cancellations correct. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY. GO TO A REAL DENTIST WHO WILL DO REAL DENTAL WORK FOR YOU.

I'm really glad my family in Vancouver has a dentist they trust. This time while I was visiting, I…read morehad a dental emergency. I chewed gum (whoops!) and my temporary tooth cap popped off! I didn't know what to do so my family contacted their dentist Dr. Hou. Thankfully he squeezed me into his schedule the following day when my cousin's kids were already scheduled. He took care of my issue so easily and reassured me that I'll be ok! He could have taken the opportunity to do dental work on me, but he definitely had my best interest in mind and assured me that I already had a good follow-up plan back in the US. I then got to witness how kind and patient Dr. Hou and his team were with teeth cleaning (and attempted teeth cleaning!) for my 2- and 4-year-old nephew and niece. I was impressed how gentle, cajoling, yet non-forceful they were. It's not easy to clean kids' teeth! If I had one, or some, I would definitely send my kid(s) to Dr. Hou. His office is pretty swanky too! Asides from cute yet stylish decorations, there was a TV monitor embedded in the ceiling! I've never seen that before. I almost wished I had more dental issues or Dr. Hou was a little less ethical so that I could have the experience of  watching TV while getting dental work!

I explained that I do not have any insurance and cannot afford to pay for my cleaning but would call back to book when I could afford to or was reinsured. She laughed and clearly pulled the phone away so I couldn't hear, but I did. I don't think that is is funny to laugh at others misfortune and will not return after this humiliating experience.

I started using Kerrisdale Dental about 20 years ago, the story of why I drive to Vancouver for my dental work is not important, but I have been very happy with their work and it continues to be worth it for me to drive there. (Besides, Vancouver is very beautiful, and sometimes I stay over for a night). I started seeing Dr Kassam 20 years ago, and was always totally satisfied with his excellent service, but have not seen him lately. I believe he has an office in downtown Vancouver and is not in the Kerrisdale office as much. My first encounter with Dr Tejani was much appreciated. I had a terrible toothache, and he came into the office on his day off to do a root canal, and it was a tough root canal. I was so impressed. I have been seeing Dr Tejani since, and continue to be impressed. He has "saved" a couple of teeth that were on the verge of being pulled. I had two crowns replaced there recently, and everything is doing well. Then the whole staff is the office is friendly, helpful, fun. I commend not only the doctors, but Sharon, Elaine, and Erin for their good work. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone. With gratitude, Sandy Staples-Hector
