Went to see dr. Shamji yesterday for a very complicated upper molar extraction. The tooth was causing me so much pain and discomfort and when I went to a different dental office than the one I was normally going to, the lady there said she wasn’t comfortable doing the extraction herself and she referred me to dr. Shamji. The roots were very long and impacted (curved/bent) and were less than 3mm away from my sinus. Had it been done by the wrong hands it could have been a lifelong disaster.Searched up the dentist who would be doing the extraction and he had really good reviews so I thought screw it, we’ll see how it goes. I’ve been scarred by less-than-ethical and/or unskilled dentists in the past so I was very weary. But let me tell you…this guy is a superstar. Got that bad boy out without even breaking it (I’m still in shock at how he pulled it out) and even the dental assistant in the room with him commented “I’ve never seen a tooth so impacted come out like that”. There was a little bit of sinus exposure which is pretty unavoidable in situations like mine but by the next morning it’s healing up very well and I couldn’t have asked for a better result. I can’t say I’ve come across a more skilled oral surgeon and if you’re in his hands, you’re in good hands for sure. 10/10

As a foreigner here from Canada visiting my wife’s family I couldn’t explain to you how friendly and welcoming Dr. Ashish Bhalerao and the rest of the staff were to me. They fixed my tooth problem and after 35 years I can finally smile with confidence. I highly recommend this Dental Clinic and again thank you Dr. Ashish and the rest of the staff for all you have done for me. I am forever grateful 🙏- Damien-

I was very happy and pleased with Nimmy she made me feel extremely comfortable and constantly checked on my well-being and Dr.Shamji was amazing and pulled 5 teeth in about 5 minutes or so completely pain free and kept asking me how I was doing if I felt any pain what to do in response to such pain. They both conversed with me and it was very nice and made me feel comfortable. Due to the excellent experience for the second time now and both of which were done flawlessly and I will be keeping this practice as my permanent go to.

Needed an urgent appointment and they fit me in the same evening! Sylvia and Dr Satinder Kalher helped me, explained everything they needed to do, and were very friendly all along. The front desk was kind, friendly and welcoming, and they billed directly to my insurance!Highly recommend! This will be my new go-to place for orthodontic issues.

I recently had a minor oral procedure here, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. The staff was friendly, especially Doctor Shamji. They were informative throughout the process and while answering all of my questions.

Hello, my name is ARYANKUMAR PATEL,This was my very first dental visit in Canada, and I chose Trillium Dental Care based on their excellent Google reviews. I was a little nervous since I had never visited a dentist in Canada before, but my experience exceeded all expectations.From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed warmly and professionally by the receptionist, which immediately put me at ease. Nimmy then guided me through the entire process. She took all of my X-rays with great care and professionalism, and I truly appreciated how patient and attentive she was. She took the time to listen to all of my concerns and made me feel comfortable throughout the appointment.Dr. Shamji was equally outstanding. He was kind, honest, professional, and exceptionally knowledgeable. His expertise and genuine care were evident from the moment we spoke. I honestly don't have enough words to express how impressed I was with him. He made me feel confident about my dental health and completely changed what could have been a stressful experience into a very positive one.Thank you to the entire team at Trillium Dental Care for providing such excellent care and making my first dental visit in Canada such a pleasant experience. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone looking for compassionate and professional dental care.

Well I used to love this place but after a few bad experiences. I won't go back. Had some work done on what was described as a must be done procedure. Went under the gum to complete. Ended up with a serious infection on vacation called the off ice and did get so.e antibiodics that did t work. Ended up at kincarden hospital and lost the tooth anyways. They put a crown on a tooth that had a pin thru it. This lasted about a year and a bit. Got a terible infection and lost the tooth. No warranty work. It's like oh well thanks for the 2000. But the best is that they decided to drill into another crown without consulting me. They tried to put a filling in it. This lasted about an hour. Just in for a checkup and they had the balls to tell me. I have a cavity in my crown. One of the dentists gave me a needle in my mouth I've never been in so much agony in my life. No need for a person to be kicking in the chair. So here I am missing teeth. They will not come good for either crown and I basically got thrown out of the office when I told him that he's a barbarian with the needle. Lots of dentists around not going back here for any reason

I recently visited Trillium Dental Centre as a new patient, and I had a truly excellent experience. The entire team was professional, attentive, and welcoming.During my first visit, Kristina helped scan my teeth for my Invisalign treatment. She was extremely careful and thorough, making detailed notes and ensuring that my dentist received all the necessary scan data.On my second visit, Jack provided an amazing dental cleaning. He was very professional, and the whole process was comfortable—I didn’t feel any discomfort at all. After the cleaning, I could clearly see in the mirror how much brighter and cleaner my teeth looked. He also took the time to explain helpful dental care tips, which I really appreciated.I found everyone at the clinic to be professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Trillium Dental Centre to anyone looking for high-quality dental care.

Trillium Dental Centre has the best and awesome Dentist, as well as all the staffs and hygienist, they’re all friendly. I would highly recommend Dr. Rifaan Lalji and Dr. Hussein to all the people I know. I thought Root canal is scary and painful, but they just prove me wrong. It was smooth and pain less when they’ve done to me. Your teeth will definitely in goods hands with them, based on my experience. 👌

2026-03-01T04:02:38.003Z

I had my 4 wisdom teeth removed by Dr. Rifaan Lalji, I was very nervous for my appointment but the Dr. kept me extremely calm. The whole time Dr. Rifaan would check on me and explain what he was doing at each point of the procedure, helping me remain calm. If you’re contemplating getting your wisdom teeth removed highly recommend Trillium and Dr. Lalji!

I’ve been going here for years and I honestly love it. All of the dentists are super friendly, easy to talk to, and they genuinely care about their patients. They always make sure you feel comfortable, and they want you to come back if you ever have any issues. I’ve had past dentists who were less friendly or harder to communicate with, but that has never been the case here. These guys are fantastic, and I highly recommend them.

Just had my appointment today cancelled by Lily, due to Dr Shamji is away from the office. Another doctor was booked for a 1pm appointment, but he cancelled. God forbid Dr Shamji goes on vacation. The whole place falls apart!!
