Who We Are

I have been a patient of Eastgate Dental for over 10 years. Their location and hours are very convenient especially for people who work office hours. My husband... read more and I go every 6 months and see the same hygienist (Kelly) every time because we love her so much. Dr. Gelmen is a fantastic dentist. He is very gentle and has a great bedside manner. All of the staff are pleasant and very helpful. Highly recommend.

I was referred to Dr. Tonogai regarding the feasibility of implants. I am a very nervous dental patient! From the first visit I was part of the team! All of... read more my questions were answered so that I could actively participate in decisions around my care. The written information was clear and reinforced what I had heard. During the procedures I received input letting me know what was happening and what to expect. I was fully aware of what was expected of me for post procedure care and why. Everyone decreased my stress level as much as they could! Dr. Tonogai also shared his knowledge with a "learner" who was shadowing him during my procedure. He exemplifies attention to both the art and science of his practice. I would recommend Dr. Tonogai and his team and will be returning for future care.

My hygienist Ferdose is amazing!!! She noticed an abnormality on my tongue and insisted I get it checked out. It turned out to be a tumour that would’ve gone unnoticed... read more had she not pointed it out and encouraged a biopsy. Her oral surgery experience should be valued by any of her patients!!!
