My mother and I both come here. We are horrible patients - we experience so much fear that we avoid…read moredental procedures, so when we finally get things fixed they're painful and complicated. Now, you'd think we would prefer the hand-holding type of dentist in this situation, and in the past that's what we've sought. Well, that hasn't always worked out. Now that we've both had some terrible issues (including problems caused by previous dentists) fixed by Dr Polonsky we both agree she's a godsend. Dr Polonsky is honest and direct without being patronising or judgmental. She is 100% focused on her work, and I trust her - which has resulted in my mother and I becoming so much more confident in addressing dental issues. Dr Polonsky is sympathetic and understanding, but when it's time to get the work done she's focused on getting things done right. Her assistant (Mimi) takes care of the bedside manner/comforting part of the treatment which works GREAT. So far, this clinic has provided me with the only dental experience I've ever had that wasn't followed by complications.

I'll start with a little info about me, I hate going to the dentist and avoided going at all costs, in fact I hadn't been in over 7 years, continually putting it off for fear of being judged! I guess you could call me a dental delinquent! Thanks to some not so gentle encouragement from my fiancee I finally agreed to go to her dentist after she explained how non-judgy they are here and she was 100% correct! I have seen both Dr. Bhargava and Dr. Telang here and they are both incredibly friendly (and non-judgmental) about your teeth! Dr. Telang explained in great detail all of the stats she was discussing with the hygenist as well as explaining in easy terms what you need to do. The hygenists here are also very friendly and gentle, despite needing to use many of the little hooks I had very little discomfort or pain! One final bonus is that they will deal directly with insurance if you have it, eliminating the hassle of having to deal with insurance companies yourself!

I went there for a wisdom teeth removal. It went well but the dentist drilled into the side of my…read moremouth by accident leaving a canker sore. It has been almost a year and it has not gone away. When going back to visit, I was referred to an oral surgeon but the centre did not want to pay for it as they had "just given me a free consultation". Well that consultation was only to investigate the complications of their surgery; a proper response would have been to pay for the repairs. Bottom line: complications happen, but good businesses take responsibility for them.

In addition to outstanding basic dental care, I've had wonderful work done to replace missing teeth. A bridge Dr. Carys designed a few years ago is holding strong, and a recent dental implant (done by Dr. Carys in coordination with Argyle and Associates) is indistinguishable from my natural teeth. A big thank you to Dr. Carys for refusing to settle for "good enough" and recommending a custom colour appointment to get the crown colour exactly right. This team is also extremely attentive to COVID-19 protocols. I've felt very safe and protected at every visit.

My dentist has told me so much more about my teeth than any other ones I've had. You really get the sense that they want to help, which isn't always the case.

Other dentists have been a disaster. Dr. Walters had solutions to all of my problems and the training and technology to make it happen. When I needed to get cavities replaced he knew to shrink the nerve first before putting on a permanent filling. My previous dentist did not and I ended up with a root canal. Dr Walters had a simple modern appliance for my teeth grinding, my previous dentists wanted to sell me a complicated 'old' style appliance. As a result of all of my experience with Dr. Walters, he's the only dentist I've ever trusted 100%.

I highly recommend Upper Hunt Club Dental Centre.
