Since regularly seeing Dr. Shiff, I no longer fear the dentist. The staff are warm and friendly and make sure that the patient is comfortable. Dr. Shiff is down to earth. Examinations and cleanings DON'T hurt. In fact, I was so comfortable the last time that I almost fell asleep...asleep with tools in my mouth. Like a regular day at the spa. Dr. Shiff is also excellent at finding other oral or facial problems (skin, jaw, etc). The only negative aspect, is that it's difficult to become a new patient. You'll have to wait for cancellations. Sure that may be nagtive, but it's always a good sign. I'm looking forward to my next appointment!

Everyone in the office is so friendly yet professional, and they all seem to legitimately love their job. So my regular dentist is actually in Toronto (my hometown) even though I moved away over a decade ago. I still made my twice a year trip to see him, because my whole family and I have been seeing him since I was a child, and he is great. However, sometimes emergencies happen and you need to see a dentist in a more timely manner than is possible with a dentist in a different city. This is how I met Dr. Dan. A while back (pre-pandemic) I was struck in the face during one of my martial arts classes (my reaction time was a bit too slow, I guess) and immediately had pain in one of my teeth. There was no bleeding and it didn't seem loose, but I wanted to see a dentist ASAP. Dr. Dan is actually my husband's dentist, so he e-mailed Dr Dan, since it was after hours, explaining the situation. Dr. Dan responded almost immediately, suggesting that I take some Ibuprofen to minimize inflammation and his office will call me in the morning with an appointment time. As promised, Shane called me in the morning and I saw Dr. Dan later that afternoon. Dr. Dan was excellent, explaining everything he was doing along the way. He was even sympathetic to my situation, lol. He examined me and determined that I had no permanent damage to my tooth. Never did he pressure me to become one of his regular patients, and he was very understanding as to why I still trekked to Toronto to see my dentist. He said he was happy to be there for me for emergencies. I ended up also getting a customized mouth guard through Dr. Dan after the incident. The price was very reasonable and the fit is so much better than those generic "boil and bite" ones that you get at sports stores. I was seen by the dental hygienists for the mouth guard and they were great too. Fast forward to one year into the Covid-19 Pandemic (and 13 months since my last dental cleaning), it didn't make sense to travel to Toronto for a dental appointment, so I called Westboro Dental Station. Dr. Dan wasn't available, but Dr. Emma Wong was, so I became one of her patients. She was also great. Very thorough and patient. As much as I like my dentist in Toronto, the convenience of being able to walk to my dental appointments can't be beat. I'm hoping my Toronto dentist understands. Westboro Dental Station is, you guessed it, in Westboro, so the parking situation is not great. There is street parking if you can find it or a paid parking lot nearby. Luckily for me, I don't need to worry about parking.

I've always been leery about finding a dentist since you really get the impression that some of them don't really care and are just there to "extract" (Get it? HA!) as much money from at each visit. I settled on Westboro Station Dental after doing some research and finding very good reviews about the clinic and Dr. Dan. I went in as a new patient and Dr. Dan and his staff did a great job. They did a thorough examination and Dr. Dan also took the time to explain and show me exactly the state of my teeth and what needed to be done to correct some sensitivity I was having with one tooth. I also had a cleaning during this initial visit and was very pleased: very thorough and no discomfort. Definitely recommended.

Dr Walters had a simple modern appliance for my teeth grinding, my previous dentists wanted to sell me a complicated 'old' style appliance.

I suppose this fact alone speaks volumes about the quality of care. I honestly love the team at Metropolitan Dental. From my perspective, there are three elements that set them apart. Chairside manner. I have always felt safe, comfortable and included in what was happening to me. The hygenists and Dr. Walters himself always explains what they are doing and why. I have always felt like a participant in what was happening rather than simply an open mouth having things done to it. Gentle Hands. Not sure how else to term it but Dr. Walters and each of the hygenists I had the pleasure to have work on my teeth, were exceptionally gentle with how they handled the various instruments both in and around my mouth. Not once do I recall having winced or experienced so much as a twinge of pain. Warm Familiar Welcome. This one applies to all - from Grace and the rest of the team in office management and adminstration, the hygenists, right to Dr. Walters (Dr. B) himself. I have always felt warmly welcomed. I have always felt recognized. And it astonishes me to no end how the team at Metropolitan Dental remembers details about my life discussed during a prior visit. I have never understood why so many of my friends hated going to the dentist - that is until I had to see a new dentist in TO recently. The experience was eye opening....as in painful and rough!! That one visit made me realize how amazing the quality of care is at Metropolitan Dental and how easily I had taken it for granted.

They've always dealt with my insurance well too, if I owe anything they usually just give me a call, rather than having me pay upfront too. I like this, this is convenient for me. They have a program here too, each referral will earn you a gift card of sorts. I referred a friend, and they issued me a $25 Mastercard gift card! Amazing! My only complaint about this dental clinic is the high turn over in staff. It seems I have a new hygienist and dentist every time I visit...

PLEASE READ IT COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE especially if you are a MALE!!!…read moreI want to echo the professionalism and kindness of all the staff at the Conroy Dental Centre (CDC) echoed by other reviews, especially the always polite and super competent receptionists. I want to share my story in hope that it might save someone's life. The import of proper dental care cannot be overstated! For instance, the early detection of ORAL CANCER and reduction of plaque that can lead to cardiovascular disease. The staff at the CDC have probably saved my life or at least given me more time as I have just been diagnosed and treated for early stage oral cancer. This was first detected by Joanne my dental hygienist (by the way I am the sixth person that she helped to detect Oral Caner) and then Dr Carris examined me and said it could be precancer and I should get it looked at. The biopsy came back as strong suspicion for Carcinoma. Imaging results confirmed that it is more likely precancer. Regardless, the key to survival or at least a longer life is early detection. If caught early, the survival rate after 5 years(key stat) is 90% or so.I have scoured peer reviewed journals and publications from the likes of New England Journal of medicine, The Mayo Clinic and the National Cancer Institute. Even my ear, nose and throat specialist said that oral cancer is usually painful. This is not always the case.. At least with respect to HPV related cancer. Most sexually active people will have been exposed to it and the are over 100 strains. Some more deadly than others. No pain is what is so deadly about this cancer. If one does not go for regular dental check-ups you run the risk of a late diagnosis and your prognosis is not nearly as good. That being said, HPV related cancer responds better to treatment modalities than other forms of oral cancer. Regardless if mine is from smoking (ex smoker) or HPV or some other cause, early detection is the key. My small lesion looked white and had no pain at all. It looked like I had just drank something too hot. In terms of risk factors the usual suspects like smoking, alcohol and being over 50 years of age. However, a couple really caught me by surprise. Over six sexual partners and get this being a MALE!! Vaccinations for HPV now include boys and not just females as was customary when I was a young man. Here is another shocking stat I came across in one of these American publications. HPV related cancer is killing more men, than it kills women with cervical cancer. This cancer is almost exclusively caused by HPV. It's something like 7.2 deaths per one hundred thousand vs 7.4 per hundred thousand for men. Finally, although there is not a definitive causal link for the rapid rise of oral cancer among men, but a leading theory attributes it to Oral Sex. The CDC is warm and inviting. The technology they have is world class. For example the technology that shows you exactly what is going on inside your mouth from the comfort of your dental chair. The bottom line, what sets this clinic ahead of others, is their people!! From the always polite receptionists, the incredible hygienists and of course the very skilled Dentists. My hygienist Joanne, is scary smart. She suspected that I needed a root canal but just looking in my mouth. She also picked up on my precancer again by looking inside my mouth. She is a great story teller, while she multi-tasks during my cleanings. How lucky and fortunate I am that I have regular dental screenings by this incredible group of professionals at the Conroy Dental Centre (CDC). Dr. Caris routinely spends more than her allocated time with me whether it's filling a cavity or completing a root canal. For example, after a recent cavity she spent 20 minutes educating me how to avoid hairline fractures in my teeth. Now when I am stressed I stop clinching my teeth. She makes you feel special and I just know I am in very good hands with her. I am not that brave and fear needles in a big way. Every Other Dentist I have seen I need Nitro or a pill to relax my nerves before hand. Not anymore, even for my very first root my canal procedure, I am so proud, no drugs of any kind. Dr Caris is as friendly as she is gentle!! Trust me you will sense that she really, really cares about her patients. She will take the time to deal with you as a person, not just another client! I have great benefits and I have gone to many other great dental clinics but CDC stands head and shoulders above the rest. Go and find out for yourself, this dental clinic is world class. You will receive excellent dental care and for a very small group of people 7 or so per 100, 000 and growing, it may save your life!!
