Missing teeth can be replaced with permanent, natural-looking dental implants. Our team handles the full process, including the initial consultation and the final restoration.
Root canal treatments help relieve pain and save the natural tooth. We prioritize patient comfort and provide clear information throughout the procedure.
Professional cleanings remove plaque and tartar buildup to keep gums healthy and leave your smile feeling fresh.
Our clinic is equipped for a range of oral surgery procedures, including wisdom tooth removal and more complex treatments.
Custom-fitted dentures help restore the function and appearance of your smile. We provide both full and partial options for a natural look and comfortable fit.
A fluoride treatment coats the teeth with a concentrated mineral that strengthens enamel and helps prevent cavities. It takes only a few minutes at the end of a cleaning and works well for children and adults at higher risk of decay.
Scaling removes hardened plaque and tartar from the tooth surface and along the gumline, including spots a regular brush cannot reach. It is a core part of treating and preventing gum disease and is usually done during a routine hygiene visit.
A custom mouthguard is a fitted plastic guard made from a mould of your teeth. It protects against damage during sports or grinding at night and fits far better than the versions sold at the pharmacy.
Wisdom teeth often come in at an angle or stay partly trapped under the gum. This can lead to pain, crowding or infection. Removal is a routine procedure done under local anesthetic, and most people recover within a few days.

Every family has different dental needs. Some members need regular cleanings and early cavity detection, others may be looking to restore a damaged tooth or refresh their smile with cosmetic treatments. At Pape Dental Centre, we cover it all: children’s first checkups and preventive care, restorative procedures like implants and crowns, cosmetic treatments like whitening and veneers, and full family dentistry for all ages. One office and one team for your whole family, with the services you need in one place.

I was really nervous having a molar removed today. Dr Shahrbandi speaks so calmly which helps me relax. He talks you through the procedure while making sure you feel no pain, and before I knew it, it was over. I couldn’t believe how quick it and painless it was, I laughed in disbelief while asking if it was really over. He’s very caring. So happy he’s my dentist.![]()

I can't say enough good things about this dental clinic! Ildi is my favourite hygienist! She is so gentle, empathetic, and truly caring. I used to never want to go for cleanings until I went to her. When she would inadvertently hit a sensitive spot (causing me to jump or tense up), she would stop and gently stroke my cheek. Super soothing. Then she would move on to next tooth, instead of acting as though I was being silly. Then there's Dr Sima. Such a gentle dentist! And so good at taking care of me and my teeth. Then there's dr Sasan. He has performed 2 extractions for me, and both times, upon completion, I was saying "what? That's it???" The needles for freezing are painless, for the most part (I'm extremely sensitive, if you haven't guessed), and extraction? Pulling teeth? Seriously 30 mins from freezing needle to out the door! And no pain! And the healing is so quick! I want to tell everyone to go t this dental clinic, while wanting to keep them all to myself. Because they are so excellent![]()

Just had fillings done and this is the first time I could walk out of my appointment feeling like I didn’t have a procedure! Dr Sasan was so gentle and made me feel calm all the way through. Accompanied by excellent and friendly staff Laura helped me feel relaxed and like I was in safe hands (I get extremely nervous at the dentist) - and I was! Side note: Ildiko is an awesome hygienist! Thank you team!![]()

Dr. Shahrbandi was amazing. Two very difficult teeth had to be removed, and he did successfully with no pain! Absolutely no pain, and he was very kind and compassionate. If you need dental work he is the best choice. You will be happy! 😃![]()

I had a wisdom tooth extraction, and I can’t thank my dentist ( Dr. Sasan ) enough for how smoothly everything went. The tooth was in bad shape and difficult to remove, but Dr. Sasan was incredibly skilled, calm, and patient throughout the entire procedure. He made sure I was comfortable at every step and constantly checked to ensure I wasn’t feeling any pain. His gentle and reassuring approach made a stressful situation so much easier. I really appreciated how professional yet kind he was the whole time. If you’re nervous about dental procedure, I highly recommend this clinic and Dr.Sasan . You’ll be in very capable and caring hands! I also had a great experience with my dental hygienists ( Rose and also Hengameh) . They were both kind, calm, and very gentle, which made the whole appointments comfortable and stress-free. They were also highly professional and attentive. I truly appreciated their care.
