Alta Vista Dental got a new dental hygienist (can't remember her name, sorry) - she started on Jan 4th. I have NEVER - EVER had my teeth cleaned better by anyone else. Great job and thank you!

Highly recommend the clinic. Had to get tongue/lip tie release for my 3 weeks old daughter. Dr.Marina did it with the laser, very professional and quick. She made the process as easy as possible with a newborn baby. Her assistant Mireille was also great in explaining all the steps and the post surgery care, attentive to her patients. I recommend the procedure, such a great change after with my daughter, would do it again if i had to.

Trust, professionlism, amazing work and a great understanding of when to joke around, and when not to are what make this team of dentistes unique. I wouldn't trust my mouth as much anywhere else. No pain, industry leading practices, and innovation through strong leadership and eager apprenticing make this place great. Fully recommend.

I highly recommend Dr. Marina Polnsky. This is my third extraction/implant and it went as smoothly as the previous ones with no pain at all afterwards.

I looked for a Dentist in California who were advertised as the best, I looked
in the Toronto area had appointments in both locations, they were tooth
salesmen, they wanted $52,000.00 U.S. IN CALIFORNIA,, $32,000.00 IN THE
TORONTO AREA, Marina Polonsky said you need 3 implants that's all you need to replace 3 teeth that cannot be save at the average price of an
implant, best dentist I have ever encountered, you won't find anyone better so my advise STOP looking,, give this dentist a call.
