    2023 Update: had my cavities replaced last week and I’m so happy with the results! My molars look brand new! 😻 November 22: Dr Jelali is the best! I love my new front teeth!! ❀️ October 2022: My daughter is getting some fillings and they are so nice and professional I’m overjoyed that I found this Dentist office!! July 2022: I got my stitches out today in the kids room. It’s really cute! ……. 1st UPDATE June 2022 I’ve now had my implant screws inserted with caps and maybe a dozen stitches. Dr Jelali is an excellent Dentist. I had literally no pain now 2 days after the operation. Swelling is going down with the medication prescribed to me. I had bone graphs done so I have to wait 6 months before getting my final crowns and I’m going back in 3 weeks to get my stitches removed. Dr Jelali gave me his personal cell number and the assistant texted me the next day to check on me. This is the best dentist I have ever seen. My photo is the morning after my dental surgery that lasted 1.5 hours. …….. May 2022 I came here today for a free consultation about Invisalign. I had X-rays done and found out that I need a few implants. Dr Jalali was very nice and explained everything to me. The receptionists are so nice and helped me feel at ease also made this decision easier.

    I had the pleasure of being treated by Abby yesterday, and she was fabulous! Normally, I am tense, the cleaning is painful and my gums hurt for a day after a cleaning. Abby was so gentle, quick and efficient and her wonderful nature made the whole appointment a breeze (plus my teeth look and feel great)! Since the office was purchased in the last few years, I have seen some great changes to the practice! The only suggestion I would have is to have the video screens on for the adults as well as the kids.:)

    We took my son for treatment at this clinic and had a very good experience with Dr. Karami. I knew her for a long time. She has been pediatric dentist and professor at the pediatric dentistry department of one of the best universities in her back home country.she is amazing in terms of knowledge, experience and attitude. I am sure your kids will love her.

    I had an abscess that appeared every once in a while. My previous dentist could not find the cause and she referred me to another specialist dentist, I decided to consult with another dentist, luckily Dr. Jalali found the cause of the abscess in the very first session. He treated and restored teeth. Dr. Jalali is recommended. Thank you to the clinic team.

    Amazing clinic. Both doctors that we dealt with are amazing. We take both of our kids and our entire family there. They are in downtown, but they give you FREE underground parking. Their work is absolutely amazing and Dr.Maryam is amazing with little kids. Highly recommend them.

    As a concerned parent, it's always a daunting experience to witness my child's anxiety levels skyrocket before a dentist appointment. However, our recent visit to The Downtown Dental Clinic turned out to be a very positive and transformative experience for both my child and me, thanks to Dr. Karami's exceptional care and understanding of my stressed child, leaving us amazed and grateful. Dr. Karami's approach during the examination and treatment was truly impressive. Her gentle and soothing demeanor calmed my child, making the experience far less distressing than we had anticipated. It was evident that she knew how to handle young patients with care and sensitivity, which put both of us at ease throughout the entire process.

    I'm super happy I found this clinic. My daughter had an abscessed tooth that had to be removed. In other clinic, they estimated 3000 cad for the extraction which is crazy expensive for us. Moreover, they planned to perform the procedure under general anesthesia. However, Dr. Maryam Karami was able to extract the tooth using laughing gas and local anesthesia, with no pain and no tears at all! It went so smoothly, and I'm so relieved we had it done. I am deeply grateful to the doctor for her expertise and highly recommend her services.

    I recently visited download dental clinic with my son for his extraction, infact , that was last week and I must say the entire experience was exceptional. I was initially apprehensive about the procedure, but the dental team did an incredible job of calming my nerves and making me feel at ease throughout the process. The procedure itself was seamless, and I was impressed by the expertise and professionalism of the dental staff. They were thorough in explaining the steps involved in the extraction, and their gentle approach made my son feel comfortable and relaxed. They took the time to answer all my questions, which helped alleviate any concerns I had. What stood out the most was the clinic's child-friendly atmosphere. The place was designed with kids in mind and also for adults, and they truly know how to make children feel comfortable and at ease. The doctors were playful and interacted with my son in such a way that he was not scared at all. They even provided toys and distractions to keep him entertained while undergoing the extraction. I highly recommend this dental clinic, especially for parents with young children. The caring and compassionate approach of the dental team, combined with their child-friendly environment, make it an ideal choice for kids' dental care. I can confidently say that this clinic made our visit stress-free and enjoyable, and we will definitely be returning for our future dental needs. Thank you for taking such good care of us! This is from Hanniel.

    I do my fillings and my dental hygiene and I did my night guard in the same clinic, everything run smooth, from punctuality to hygiene to satisfaction, I appreciate everyone there and I recommend it to new clients. I follow up with Dr. Jalali, he is experienced confident and I am happy with his treatments he gives me all the time and the best advice needed.

    I have this weird habit of getting anxious when people stick sharp cutting tools in my mouth while I'm nearly upside down, but Dr. Karami was awesome at understanding my need to take a break here and there. I hardly have any pain the next day thanks to her amazing scalpel wielding prowess. Also, the front stuff are excellent at making you feel like a funny dude by laughing at your SUPER lame jokes. 10/10 would come back for a good teeth pullin`.

    Downtown Dental Clinic was a wonderful experience for me. Dr. Jalali fixed several teeth for me, and I am extremely satisfied with the results. In spite of the fact that a few of my teeth were in extremely bad shape, he was able to save them with his best efforts. He explained everything very well and gave me a clear understanding of the problem as well as a helpful solution. I usually feel stressed when I go to the dentist, but he is friendly and kind and will make you feel comfortable. When the filling was complete, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference between the filling and your own tooth. Additionally, Smile Dental provided us with a 20 percent student discount, which was a big help to us.

    I recently went to this dental clinic and did cleaning and root canal and I had a great experience there. The clinic is really clean. The staff are very friendly. The cleaning was really good. Dr. Jalali did a fantastic job (root canal). I was very satisfied. He explains every step that is going to do, he took two X-rays during my root canal to make sure everything is perfect. I did not have any pain. My tooth looks very good and natural and I did not have any pain.

    We had an amazing experience for first time dentist visit with Dr. Karami. She was so patient and kind and made my 2 and 5 year old feel so at ease and comfortable. She gave us great tips on how to maintain their dental hygiene. She made this first experience so smooth and fun that there is no fear associated now with dentist visits. Thanks so much to Dr. Karami and her staff. So happy to have found a great dentist for our kids!

    Got a cleaning done and then my gum graft + check ups etc. Great experience all over, everyone at the clinic was super nice, and Anna did a great job on my gum graft. Definitely recommend! I was also worried about COVID when I got my graft done, and they explained to me all their safety procedures in a very nice way and even asked if my mom (who was extra worried) wanted to come visit the clinic.

    100% recommending this place. Dr. Anna placed 2 implants for me in the upper-jaw in one day. The x-ray taken afterwards shown an impeccable work. The whole operation taken less than an hour. It was a painless and smooth experience. Both Dr Anna and the dental assistant were Professional and compassionate. Also the front-desk staff were very friendly. This dental office cares about quality beyond other things.

    My 5 year old son had a great experience here, after a scary experience at different dentists office, it was a relief to get his work done. The office is so friendly and colorful he loved it. He left feeling super special and proud of himself and even got a prize. Great dentist for kids.

  • 1/5 Mir J. 4 months ago on Google β€’ 4 reviews
    I recently had an appointment at the Downtown Dental Clinic where I was examined by Dr. Jalali. My overall experience at this clinic left me feeling deeply unsatisfied and unfairly treated. My initial purpose for the visit was a straightforward teeth cleaning. However, I found myself billed for a range of additional services. These services, which included more than the basic cleaning I anticipated, were added to my bill without my explicit consent or prior knowledge of the costs involved. Moreover, the cleaning service was incomplete, with a follow-up appointment required, incurring additional fees. This practice is not only unusual compared to my experiences with other dental clinics but also seems to exploit my limited knowledge of dental procedures. The final bill presented to me was unexpected and not aligned with the purpose of my visit. I have raised these concerns with the clinic, seeking a detailed report of a diagnosis made during my visit and requesting a review of these unexpected charges. However, my attempts to resolve this amicably have been met with silence, adding to my frustration. I advise you to be wary of additional services being added without explicit consent and ensure you have a clear understanding of all charges before proceeding with any treatment. This experience has left me feeling taken advantage of and stresses the importance of transparent communication and ethical billing practices in healthcare services.

    I searched high and low to find a new dentist for my daughter, as we had horrible experiences with her previous one. I cannot recommend Dr. Karami enough. She is professional, patient, kind and GREAT with children. She thoroughly explained the procedures/next steps and made sure my child felt comfortable. My 5 year old is no longer scared of going to the dentist! Thank you Dr. Karami

    I can't emphasize enough how much I recommend Dr. Karami's kids' dental practice!. Dr. Karami is incredibly friendly, patient, and nurturing, making every visit a positive experience. Dr. Karami has a magical way of explaining procedures to children, alleviating any fears they might have. The treatment rooms are designed to be comforting and fun, distracting the kids with vibrant decor and even a TV on the ceiling. The expertise and gentle approach of Dr. Karami and the dental team truly make trips to the dentist an enjoyable adventure for my kids. My children are now excited for their dental check-ups, and as a parent, that's priceless peace of mind. Thank you, Dr. Karami, for taking such great care of my little ones

  • 1/5 steph c. 1 year ago on Google
    The appointment was for 10 we didn't get in until 1025. My daughter was fasting and starving. Once in the room the dentist asked me what I would like for her to do as if she didn't book the appointment and have a plan for the appointment. Which in turn made me feel anxious. She failed to explain to my daughter what to do if she was not feeling well or needed a break. She did not explain to me anything about the nitrous and failed to send the instructions via email. Overall it was a terrible experience. She kept turning up the nitrous and then back down. My daughter told me she felt like she was spinning. Would not recommend taking your children here!

  • 1/5 Rajah D R. 1 year ago on Google
    It was extremely terrible service, Dr.Karimi is not look like a professional. My kid is only 9 years old she had a small cavity it can be filled, but the lady Doctor said these teeth need to be removed and replant silver teeth. And she removed 2 teeth and put 3 injections for this small kid. And charged a huge amount it is very bad experience for the small kid. I find another Doctor in Baseline Road, he is so kind and he did not put any injection at this time, he just freeze with a special device and fill the other teeth and charged very minimum reasonable charge for the service. He is very professional, very kind, and very good knowledgeable good heart personal.

    Not professional dentist, you do have to care about the money as you will get them when you do your job. I had appointment for my daughter this morning, she was referred from another clinic and I do not have health insurance except health smile the except her but when we met the dentist she said I have to pay $600 as the government have a new program support teeth treatment. I told her why you did not tell me that before I came to the appointment. She said it is new program and you have to pay and you will get your money after 5 days. I said I do not want to pay, I just want to go with the health smile she said we will finish the $600 and then come back to the health smile. I said then no after that she said if you do nit want to pay the she will not do anything to her teeth after I said ok I will leave she then said I will apply some protection to her teeth I think she did that just because she will charge health smile for the visit. I understand people love money but not like that. My visit was very bad I don't recommended this clinic. When she makes you feel money is her first important thing. You will get your money but why you do that. That is not professional

  • 1/5 Diana K. 1 year ago on Google
    I originally had an appointment at 7:30 a.m. this morning (i.e. Friday, Sept. 9th, 2022). However, although I arrived 5 minutes earlier and waited until 7:33 a.m., I wasn't called into the examination room. Instead, a man who was a walk-in patient was called into the examination room at 7:30 a.m. I had a work meeting at 9 a.m., so I had to reschedule. I couldn't wait any longer, because I thought I wouldn't have to wait if I booked for the very first appointment of the day. What's the point of making an appointment, if walk-ins are called in earlier than those who officially made an appointment? The receptionist for today was sensible not to charge me for last-minute rescheduling. I don't feel bad for the dental hygienist, because my time wasn't respected, and I wasn't treated properly.

    I had to hop on here to review my wisdom teeth removal surgery. This clinic is my normal dentist and they’re nice, but Dr Jalali knocked it out of the park with this one. I was really nervous about the surgery but I ended up having almost no pain, just low-level aches. I also had no bruising and no swelling. He is definitely good at his job and my recovery was as smooth as it could possibly be!

    Discovering this clinic has truly been a blessing, akin to finding a second family. The genuine care and concern shown by everyone, especially Dr. Jalali, for the well-being of patients has left a lasting impression on me. Dr. Jalali's expertise and teaching have proven invaluable, and Dr. Karami's nurturing approach with children is truly admirable. Dr. Saman Javan's remarkable talents, coupled with the friendliness of health workers like Dr. Anna, a specialist in the perio department, create an environment that I genuinely cherish. The entire staff not only embodies politeness but also friendliness, making each visit an unequivocally positive experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this clinic for the exceptional care and profound sense of community they consistently provide.
