I can't believe my dentist is actually on Yelp, lol. Anyway, I really like my dentist. I have been going to him for over 25 years. I followed him from his original practice at Bathurst and Bloor to his current practice at Wilson and Jane. I've lived in Ottawa for over a decade and believe it or not, I make the trek to Toronto twice a year to see Dr. Tran (I make a mini vacation out of it, of course, but I refuse to switch dentists to someone more local).
I have a lot of hardware in my mouth. Sure, my smile is nice now but it's a result of a lot of orthodontic manpower, and pain and tears on my part in the past. I have permanent retainers bonded to the back of my teeth, so cleaning my teeth requires a lot of patience and skill as not to break the hardware. I know a lot of people who have had their retainers broken by dental cleanings (done by people other than my dentist).
My dentist does my cleaning himself. He's very skilled and cleanings are painless. He has never broken my retainer.
He's open on the weekends - even Sundays (but closes Mondays and Tuesdays) to accommodate people who work on weekdays.
He's very nice and friendly.
The location is a bit out of the way from downtown, but it's in a strip mall so there's lots of free parking. It's also easily accessible by TTC.
There's the North York Sheridan Mall across the street, which is where I poke around if I arrive too early.
He's a long way from it, but I don't know what I'll do when he retires. I try not to think about it, lol. read more
