Figtree Family Dental - Dr. Nitin Dhanani: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Wow is maybe the best way to describe this dental practice. From the first minute I walked in I knew I was in the best hands . Dr Nitin Dhanani reassured me he could do everything I wanted. Then Virginia Salas - Oral Hygienist just amazing. I look forward to my dental appointments . I travel 3 hours just to see them and always walk out with a smile on my face. Also a shout out to the girls that also work there. You are all just so welcoming from the moment I walked in . Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone
Fantastic experience: TL;DR: This place is awesome and I'm will cure any dental anxiety. This is literally the best dental practice I've been to in 40 years of orthodontic care. The whole staff are welcoming, warm and genuine, and Dr Dhanani is pretty much a miracle worker. I've been told my whole life that my particular orthodontic situation would cost around $50k and require multiple surgeries and Dr Dhanani managed to fix it for about $7k surgery free.

Negative experience: I came here over 3 different appointments for my fillings and a clean. The first 2 appointments were done by a very kind and gentle doctor, I don’t know her name but I was really put to ease by her. For my last appointment however, I had Dr Nitin Dhanai. He was rough and could see that I was anxious and in pain and he did nothing about it. He did 2 fillings and I complained about the pain a few times an he kept saying “I don’t know why it’s hurting so much” and I said I had the other ones done by the lady doctor and didn’t feel and thing. He kept saying, “I don’t know how you didn’t feel her doing but you are in pain with me doing it.” The only other words he said to be during the procedure was conversation with one of the nurses about their weekend. I felt so shocked and distraught afterwards. I am now scared to return back Incase there is a chance I get seen by Dr Dhanai again. The 2 stars on my review are purely for the staff and female doctor I saw.
Fantastic experience: My family and I have been seeing Dr Nitin Dhanani for many years, and we honestly couldn’t ask for a better dentist. He is incredibly thorough, gentle, and genuinely cares about his patients. Whether it’s a routine check-up or more complex work, he always takes the time to explain everything and makes sure you’re comfortable. We’ve also had the pleasure of seeing Virginia Salas, the oral hygienist, who is equally wonderful. The whole team at the practice is friendly, professional, and welcoming. I’ve recommended Dr Dhanani to friends and family, and everyone has had the same excellent experience. If you’re looking for a dentist you can trust long-term, I highly recommend Dr Dhanani and his team!
Fantastic experience: Dr Dhanani made my wisdom tooth extraction a surprisingly smooth and stress-free experience. He explained everything clearly beforehand, and the procedure was quick and well-handled. Recovery was easier than I expected thanks to his care and guidance. Highly recommend for dental extractions!
Thanks Kiara, we look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: I’m so happy with my cosmetic veneers done by Dr Dhanani! The entire experience was professional and comfortable, and the results have truly boosted my confidence. Dr Dhanani has a great eye for detail and made sure everything looked natural and suited me perfectly. Highly recommend for anyone considering cosmetic dental work!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience with Dr Dhanani for my aligner treatment. The process was smooth, and the results were fantastic. Dr Dhanani was thorough, professional, and always took the time to explain each step clearly. Highly recommend for anyone considering aligners!
Fantastic experience: Great practice. Dr Nitin Dhanani is an excellent dentist always providing the best treatments and services. I've found the staff and hygienist are friendly and accommodating
Thank you Lesley for highly recommending us, we greatly appreciate it and we hope to see you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Very friendly and efficient staff ,beautiful practice abd Dr Dhanani always looking after me
Fantastic experience: Always a pleasure, always comforting and warm, our family travel from Sydney here because we trust you and can do not rely on the best, thank you for always being here for us.
Negative experience: I went in for a second attempt at removing an infected tooth—after another dentists had already tried and failed—only to endure one of the worst experiences of my life: - He administered seven separate anaesthetic shots, yet I still felt every tug and twist. He told me it was my anxiety that was causing me pain .. - Despite the numbing attempts, the procedure was agonising, far beyond any pain I’ve ever known. - I explicitly told him the tooth had been stubborn for other professionals, but he brushed off my concerns, insisting he could “do it better.” His massive ego and arrogance drove him to push on—seemingly to avoid referring me to an oral surgeon and to collect extra fees. - After all that, he still couldn’t extract the tooth. I ended up in hospital with my face severely swollen and in distress. I'm still traumatised. They're lucky I'm not taking them to court.
Negative experience: WORST DENTIST EVER

Fantastic experience: I simply cannot express enough gratitude for the high level of service delivery received. Virginia (oral hygienist) has the most compassionate and grounded bedside manner. I never once thought that I would be saying I look forward to my dentist appointment but I sincerely do. I did my research before engaging this team to treat my gums and teeth and it’s paid off. I and forever grateful
Fantastic experience: The dental hygienist here is so gentle, patient and efficient! Today's six month clean was pain-free, which is extraordinary when you have sensitive teeth. All of our children see Dr Nitin for orthodontic work - one has a plate, one has invisaline, and one has braces. We are very happy with Dr Nitin's work & glad to have found Figtree Family Dental
Fantastic experience: Spark Invisalign gave me amazing results with minimal pain and troubles. My teeth moved so much for 6 months only. Thank you very much.
Negative experience: I don’t know what’s happened to Dr Dhanani and his dental surgery….. where do I start. First of all I’m stunned by the way Dr Dhanani and his team have changed since moving from Dapto to Figtree. When the team was operating in the Dapto clinic, they were all super friendly, caring, understanding and respectful. Now since moving to Figtree Dr Dhanani especially has become very rude, egotistical and straight up disrespectful. First he shamed me for going to another dentist when I needed an urgent appointment that day because of the pain I was in. He then quoted me thousands and thousands of dollars for a few fillings. He then went to pointed out, in a very belittling way that I needed a lot more work done to my teeth when my previous dentist said my teeth were fine. I think he’s turned into a money scammer.. watch out
Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We are genuinely sorry to hear about your recent experience with Dr. Dhanani and the team at our Figtree clinic. We take patient concerns seriously, and we’re disheartened to learn that you did not feel respected or valued during your visit.
At our practice, we always strive to provide a high standard of care and ensure that all patients feel heard and well-informed about their treatment options. We understand that dental care can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially when urgent treatment is needed, and we regret that you felt discomforted. Please know that it is never our intention to make our patients feel disrespected or pressured, and we truly regret if that was your perception.
Regarding the treatment and pricing you mentioned, we would like to clarify that it’s unlikely you were quoted the extensive amount mentioned for fillings, as our treatment costs typically do not reach such figures for basic procedures. It seems there may have been some misunderstanding, and we would be happy to review the details of your treatment plan to clear this up. We are unsure of who you are but would like to resolve your complaint.
We would love the opportunity to discuss your concerns further and work with you toward a resolution. Please feel free to contact us directly at 02 4288 2515 or [email protected], as we value your satisfaction and trust. Your feedback helps us continue to improve, and we are committed to ensuring the highest quality of care for all of our patients.
Thank you again for sharing your experience with us.
Fantastic experience: Dr Chintan was absolutely amazing yesterday. He went above and beyond to ensure my Dental emergency was dealt with, with care and minimal to no pain. I needed a tooth extracted and 24hrs later and I am still pain free. Thankyou so much Dr Chintan & Sophie I am so happy and grateful
Fantastic experience: I cannot believe how comfortable, how welcoming, how efficient and how reasonably priced this dentist is. I will never go any where else again!
Fantastic experience: What a great service, very professional, very friendly and fun to attend. I had a chipped tooth and I could not get in to see my own dentist so I randomly rang this provider and the friendly receptionist was very helpful and arranged an appointment that same day. The staff were very friendly and fun. It seemed they were glad to be there and fun loving. This made me feel very welcome, seeing that I suffer from being extremely anxious with dental issues. I fully recommend this practice to anyone who needs dental intervention and so comfortable attending.
Fantastic experience: I can not recommend this dental surgery enough! From the minute you walk through the door, you feel welcome and at ease. I have avoided wisdom tooth removal for close to twenty years and today, had them out, in the chair within minutes with absolutely zero pain. I also had a deep clean and found the entire process to be so easy. The hygienist and assistant were so amazing! If you have a fear of the dentist, don't hesitate to give this place a go, you won't regret it.
Fantastic experience: I am so grateful and glad to have had the pleasure of being treated by the amazing team who work in sync to deliver the most comprehensive, caring, exeptionally skilled dental care. From the moment you set foot in the practice the ultra kind and professional conduct of every single staff member is exceptional and second to none. They can handle the most distressing dental issues with incredible compassion and patient education guiding me through in a way that gave me hope and confidence in the management of my condition. Extra special thanks to Virginia the very dedicated and expert dental hygenist who took extra valuable time on the phone even before I met her, to walk me through so many vital details pertaining to my treatment protocol and what she can work with me to achieve. EVERYONE must see a hygenist at some point. Try it and be blown away by what you will discover. I can be very apprehensive and fearful at times but I felt like I was in the most capable hands and this practice deserves way more praise than just 5 stars. Thankyou a million stars. See to it that you book your dental care here as soon as possible. You will not regret it, I promise you that !!
Fantastic experience: They do an excellent job! I went in thinking I might need dentures but they were able to save all my teeth. Highly recommended!
Fantastic experience: Very professional, welcoming, and friendly team. The Orthodontist, Nittin, is a very charming and funny gentleman. The mouthguard they moulded me fit perfectly and needed no adjustments, compared to other mouthguards it is top tier!!!
Fantastic experience: Dr Dhanani and staff are honest,kind, patient, knowledgeable in all areas of dental work + orthodontic work. Understanding of children with asd/ other conditions. **Fantastic **
Thank you Prudence, we appreciate you taking time to recommend us to others. It's always a pleasure to see you and your lovely family.
We look forward to seeing you all again.
Fantastic experience: I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional care and compassion I received from Dr. Nitin Dhanani and the entire Figtree Family Dental team during one of the most challenging periods of my life. A few months before my wedding, I had a gnarly bike accident that left me with major injuries in my teeth and body. The ER couldn't do much on a Sunday night, so I was sent home where I spent the night in pain and panic. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted by a warm and understanding receptionist. Despite a busy schedule, Dr. Nitin Dhanani and his team showed incredible kindness by accommodating me immediately. Even in my state of distress, they treated me with care and respect, addressing both my physical and emotional pain. I was immediately treated with laser therapy that brought relief to my facial and bodily injuries, and by the early afternoon, I had temporary teeth that allowed me to eat and speak again. Throughout the week that followed, the team continued to treat me with laser therapy, which significantly improved my healing process. The severity of my injuries required two implants and several fillings, which I was devastated about. I told Dr. Dhanani about my fear of not having a beautiful smile for my wedding. He ensured that I would have beautiful temporary teeth and that my facial injuries would be healed by then. This promised was kept and despite having temporary teeth during my special day, they looked stunning. All my friends and family mentioned how they could not even tell they were not my real teeth. Several months later I had made a full recovery and had my beautiful new implants installed. The visits were not always easy for me as I was so traumatised by the accident. Sometimes I would experience tremors and tear up in the chair. Despite all my emotional setbacks Dr Dhanani showed me patience and kindness and would talk to me about my fears, which had significantly positive impact on how I was able handle my visits. Figtree Family Dental not only restored my physical well-being but also supported me emotionally during a harrowing time. Their dedication to patient care goes above and beyond, and I am forever grateful for the beautiful smile they helped me regain. I wholeheartedly recommend Figtree Family Dental to anyone seeking exceptional dental care coupled with genuine compassion.
Wow, Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us Arlena. It means the world to the team.

Thankyou Kim for leaving us this review and mentioning both the assistant and dentists.We are so glad you find your dental experience with us to be pleasant and informative. We look forward to seeing you at your next appointment.
Fantastic experience: I cannot speak highly enough of this wonderful dental clinic, after nearly 20 years of being loyal to another dental clinic in Wollongong who failed after 7 years of complaining of a very painful tooth which required a root canal they instead referred me to a very expensive dental specialist who had me waiting for 3 months for an appointment. Unfortunately 2 weeks shy of that appointment I couldn't stand the pain any longer and phoned Dr Dhanani who fitted me in immediately and did a root canal. I always had a fear of block injections after previous experiences but Dr Dhanani has put that fear to bed as I have had severa l now with him and never felt a thing. It's so good to be out of pain now. Dr Dhanani would have to be the best dentist on the planet he is so good at what he does, no pain felt, puts you at ease and has a very friendly reassuring demeanour. Very impressed with the technology he uses it's amazing. I can't thank you enough Dr Dhanani for everything you have done for me. Thankyou also to your wonderful team of staff they are fantastic. If anyone has a fear of dentists please do not hesitate and contacting this clinic they are the very best and you won't be sorry you took my recommendation. Thanks again.
Wow, thank you so much Lynette, we were all so happy to read your lovely review, it made our day! And thank you for taking the time to write it we are highly appreciative! We are so glad that we have made such a positive impact. It makes coming to work easy when we have such great patients! We look forward to seeing you and looking after you at your next appointment!
Fantastic experience: I am highly satisfied with my dental care plan so far from Figtree Family Dental. They are indeed very friendly and available for you, no hiding costs, everything is well explained and fair. I really appreciate the professionalism of Virginia, her courtesy and reassurance at every steps of the way. Dr. Dhanani is also very kind and friendly and he surely knows what he's doing. The staff around are all very polite and make you feel welcome and considerated. Overall I couldn't recommend enough this cabinet, try it for yourself, you won't be disappointed that you chose them!
Thankyou Thomas for the kind words, the team here at Figtree Family Dental really appreciate it, We are pleased to know that we put your mind at ease throughout your appointment and look forward to seeing you at your next visit!

Fantastic experience: I can't express enough how grateful my sisters and I are for the incredible orthodontic care we received from Dr. Dhanani and his exceptional team. Our journey with his clinic has been nothing short of amazing, and we have achieved the best possible results, thanks to their expertise and unwavering commitment to our well-being. From the moment we walked into the clinic, we were greeted with warmth and professionalism. The entire staff is a testament to the high standards set by Dr. Dhanani. They are not only incredibly kind and welcoming but also impressively organized and time-conscious. It's evident that they truly care about their patients and their experiences. One remarkable aspect of our experience was Dr. Dhanani's willingness to put our needs first. Not once did he press us for upfront payment or make us feel rushed into any decisions. This level of trust and respect is a rarity in the world of healthcare, and it left a lasting impression on us. Even when I, regrettably, paid my bill later than expected, Dr. Dhanani remained understanding and gracious. His patience and compassion in handling the situation showcased his genuine dedication to patient care. But beyond the exceptional service, it's the results that truly speak volumes about Dr. Dhanani's expertise. My sisters and I are ecstatic with the transformation of our smiles. The precision and attention to detail in our orthodontic treatment have left us feeling more confident and grateful than ever. In an industry where compassion, skill, and integrity can be hard to find, Dr. Dhanani and his team shine brightly. They've not only given us beautiful smiles but also an unforgettable experience. We highly recommend this clinic to anyone in need of cosmetic and orthodontic care. Dr. Dhanani and his team are more than dentists; they're true professionals who go above and beyond for their patients. Thank you, Dr. Dhanani, for your exceptional work and for making our orthodontic journey so positive and memorable. Warm regards, Nafiah Zafar Monibah Zafar Noor Zafar
Thank you so much Nafiah ! We appreciate the kind words, and are so happy that you and your sisters had a great experience with us. It has and always will be a pleasure looking after you and your sisters. We look forward to seeing you all again in your next dental appointment.

Thankyou Emma for kind review and trusting us with your new implants and we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: A life long fear of dentists and suffering a sudden cracked tooth and abscess Dr Dhanani and his team managed to fit me and put my mind at rest. In 20 minutes I was out of pain. Both he and his team were very caring, professional and reassuring. I will not go anywhere else from now on. thank you again.

Fantastic experience: Upon entering the Figtree Family Dental Practice I immediately felt at ease with the reception I received. The staff were welcoming and friendly and the clinicians professional, skilled and attentive. The procedures that I had included teeth cleaning and root canal. I also consulted Dr Dhanani to have braces fitted and although it’s a work in progress I am extremely pleased with the results so far and the treatment I have received. I highly recommend this practice for all dental procedures.
Thank you Sandra, we really appreciate you taking the time to recommend us to others with these kind words, we look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! I went to see Nitin wanting vanners as I had bad teeth and a horrible smile. Nitin is great to deal with. He took the time to check my teeth multiple times to ensure he was able to offer me the best smile possible. NO grinding or shaving my teeth down was involved. With no preparation to any of my teeth, he was able to give me too 10 porcelain vaneers. They look natural and do not feel bulky or unnatural giving me a smile that I am proud about. Thanks to nitin I feel comfortable and confident everyday to smile and overall rate the whole experience a 10/10.
Thank you so much ! We appreciate the kind words, and are so happy that you all had a great experience with us and most importantly happy with your smile. It is a pleasure looking after you and we look forward to seeing you at your next appointment!

I cannot recommend this dental clinic enough, the staff are incredibly professional, knowledgeable and attentive. Shout out to especially Dr. Nitin Dhanani, his work is outstanding and he took time to listen to my concerns or any questions I had regrading my treatment and responded accordingly. Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking dental care!
Thank you Krupa for such a wonderful review of our practice. We really appreciate when our patients are feeling the care that we put in. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: I have taken my 2 sons to Dr Nitin for orthodontist work. He has all the latest updates and techniques for treatment. 2 other orthodontists suggested they would have to pull 4-6 teeth out and Dr Nitin suggested no teeth would need to be pulled out using up to date techniques. My eldest son has the straightest teeth after only having braces on for 12 months. My youngest son might not have to have braces due to using an expander. I would recommend Dr Nitin to all parents
Thank you Frank, we appreciate you taking time to recommend us to others. It's always a pleasure to see you and your lovely family. We are so happy we could help with both of your sons orthodontic treatment.
We look forward to seeing you all again.
Fantastic experience: I've recently used Figtree family dental and had my teeth cleaned, teeth fillings removed and new fillings installed. Niton who did my works has a great honest and friendly team, No time wasted and gets the job done a fair price and you don't fill like you have been ripped off or had something done not needed. As said gives me great pleasure in doing this review and when needed, I hope not soon to get my teeth sorted.

Fantastic experience: I’m sooo happy I have now found a new dentist…Dr. Dhanani. My old dentist quoted me $3000 for a root canal procedure, when my tooth was in a saveable condition. Dr Dhanani examined it and ultimately saved my tooth. This practice takes pride in looking after their clients and the overall experience was pleasant. I’m so thankful I discovered this amazing practice!

Fantastic experience: In July 2021 I embarked on my journey of getting a full top set of dental implants.This included extracting my own teeth and replacing them. I can't stress enough the absolute professionalism and friendliness of Dr Nitin Dhanani and his staff, all of whom deserve a mention. Taylor, Georgia, Nicki, Amber, Yung and the two lovely ladies manning the phones, Carissa and Paige. All of these people helped me through my experience. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. Dr Dhanani explained what was going on every step of the way and always with a smile on his dial, made sure I was feeling comfortable. I can now eat anything again which is great because sometimes I really put my new choppers to the test, and it's all thanks to Dr Nitin Dhanani and his staff at Figtree Family Dental. Would I recommend Figtree Family Dental as the place to go for Dental Implants, or for that matter, any dental treatment. Yes I would 100%.

Fantastic experience: This practice is terrific. Dr. Yi Si Si Zhou combines expertise and a willingness to listen. I immediately felt at ease – and felt confident in my receiving expert medical care from her. Also, the staff is very friendly and helpful. I’m very impressed with the overall experience. HIGHLY recommend!
Thank you Kevin for the fantastic review ! We are so glad you had such a great experience with us and we hope to see you soon.
Positive experience: I went there for the first time checkup. Having no health fund to pay for my dental care i called prior and confirmed my checkup and they told they will charge me 200$ for cleaning and checkup including consultation. But i had some issues with my oral health and ended up just with check up but no cleaning. They did not tell me if they were doing anything extra. They charged me 180$ and stated it included discount. Staffs were very friendly but i am disappointed to be charged that way. And it all went out of my pocket.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Figtree Family Dental. They truly care about their patients. Very professional and friendly staff. Our family see them for all our dental needs, including braces for myself. They are excellent.

Fantastic experience: The team at Figtree Family Dental are the best! They are all very friendly and helpful. Dr Nitin Dhanani is an experienced dentist who provides an excellent service and has an enthusiastic passion and vision for all dentistry needs. He has been our family dentist for many years and has always shown the utmost care and kindness. I also value the oral hygiene services of Mrs Yung Starling. She is very professional and gentle in providing the highest level of care for optimal oral health. I am happy to recommend this practice to everyone I know.
Thanks Rosina, we look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: I suffer from severe anxiety when it comes to dental procedures and usually cry in the chair which is highly embarrassing, in the past dentists have made it very clear how inconvenient this is for them further exacerbating my reactions to attending the dentist. I was recommended Dr Dhanani by a friend and gave it a go, he is so honestly caring and understanding, I had wisdom teeth pulled with zero bruising and nothing but patience and compassion. Pricing was amazing, as I do not have dental cover and pay upfront I really appreciate that aspect also. After delaying dental procedures for over a decade im so glad I have finally found somebody I can trust and wish I had found him earlier.
Thank you Lisa, so glad we could help you and we really do appreciate you taking the time to let others know that you recommend our services.
Fantastic experience: Highly recommended! Dr. Nitin Dhanani is an amazing dentist. I was initially recommended Dr Nitin after having issues with an infected tooth. He could see I was in much discomfort however put me at ease with his gentle and caring nature. I have since had further implant work done which was completed seamlessly as Dr Nitin uses the most current technology which takes the guess work out of the process. A truly professional and experienced dentist that has a real passion for his work. I could not be happier with Dr Nitin and his team.
Thank you Mark, we are always so glad to hear our patients are happy with our care. Look forward to seeing you again
Fantastic experience: I could not be happier with the excellent attention I received with what I was told was a huge problem for me and great expense. It did not turn out to be....I highly recommend the Clinic A.
Thank you Nett, we are always so glad to hear from a happy customer. We always look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: I was a new patient in urgent need of two major fillings. Dr Dhanani treated me on a Saturday morning relieving the pain and discomfort with a very professional, caring and pain-free treatment. I highly recommend Dr Dhanani for the best dental experience I have been fortunate to receive. Staff are friendly and the surgery is new, well equipped and provides off-street parking.
Thank you Rodney, so glad we could help you and we really do appreciate you taking the time to let others know that you recommend our services.
Fantastic experience: I am so greatful to have been referred to see Dr Nitin Dhanani and the hygienist Mrs Yung at Figtree Family Dental. After some disappointing treatments with other dentists I was so lucky to be able to meet Mrs Yung at such a pivitol time for my teeth and gums. Mrs Yung was able to successfully treat my gums for periodontal disease and I am so greatful for her precise work, professionalism, compassion and guidance. Dr Dhanani saved my smile when other dentists gave me nothing but dire options. Thanks to their state of the art equipment and sugery, and to the clinical excellence of the team at Figtree Family Dental, I am so happy to have my healthy and strong smile back! I highly recommend a consultation, especially if you are feeling vulnerable about any dental issues!

Fantastic experience: Dr Nitin Dhanani has got to be the best dentists and ortho out there. Having had a long break between visits over the years and suffering anxiety and panic attacks, Nitian has been calm and sensitive to my fears. He and the team go above and beyond to make sure I understand what needs to happen and the best way to achieve a good outcome. The practice has lots of natural light which is also really welcoming. I would never go anywhere else and always tell people where I go. Dr Yung Starling also goes above and beyond. She understood my fears and understood I hadn't been to a dentist in years and she was patient and kind. The best team!
Thank you so much Ashleigh for these kind words, we are so glad you've had a comfortable experience with us, we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: Best dentist around. I hadn’t been to a dentist in 3 years, and unfortunately found out there were quite a few fillings needed. I found the initial clean fantastic and the rest of the procedures really good and professional and also appreciated that they worked with my finances. Couldn’t recommend more.
Thank you so much Rebecca for these kind words, we are so glad you've had a comfortable experience with us, we look forward to seeing you again soon.
Fantastic experience: I couldnt be happier to recommend this Dentist. He did a wonderful job, with a very complex issue.i have 5 implants in the upper jaw, and a partial denture on the bottom. I was quoted twice as much by other dentists, who bearly understood what was required. He made my Christmas, and am actually looking forward to going back for a checkup.
Thank you Garry, so wonderful to hear this positive feedback from one our valued patients. Look forward to seeing you again soon.
