  • Invisalign Clear Aligners
    Invisalign clear aligners use a custom set of smooth, nearly invisible trays to gently move your teeth into place. No brackets or wires needed! Because they’re removable, you can still enjoy your favourite foods and easily brush and floss. Plus, their sleek, metal-free design keeps your treatment discreet and comfortable from start to finish

  • Two Phase Treatment
    Two-Phase orthodontic treatment starts early to guide your child’s growing teeth and jaw. Phase One, typically between ages 6–8, uses expanders or partial braces to create space and correct early bite issues. After a resting period for adult teeth to emerge, Phase Two completes the process with full braces, often shortening treatment time and improving overall results.

My overall experience here was very positive. During the initial consultation, Dr. Mark took the time to thoroughly answer all of my questions and concerns, which I truly appreciated. Their email responses are also very prompt, which is reassuring—especially when something feels off with your teeth and you’re looking for quick guidance or peace of mind.

I had my braces from here 2 years ago, and I love the results, originally I was supposed to be in treatment for 3 years but to my surprise it finished in a year and half, which I am so happy about. The front staff to the cda’s and the orthodontist were all super friendly and I felt so welcomed every time I went in.

The service they’ve given our two kids has forced me to write a review today. They’re just fabulous, super kind, deeply understanding and extremely helpful. It’s that human touch that makes us feel this way at a dental clinic. Sandy, you’re the reason we write this. Ravneet – thank you! Keep rocking, keep spreading goodness.
