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.

I have been going to Eastgate Dental for quite a few years now and have always had a great experience there. Mary is "the best" hygienist EVER.

They were amazing in getting her in... read more so quickly same day, very much appreciated by us! We were seen by Dr. Bhika who was very warm and friendly.

I love love love my new dentist! I feel safe going into this office because of their protocols. Also, Dr. Bhandari and the staff are a dream. The level of... read more care I receive here is phenomenal. I usually hate going to the dentist, after a traumatizing 5 years of braces back in my teen years.

I just had a root canal last week and was laughing throughout a lot of it (never would have thought I'd ever say that!), because of all the jokes and stories Tara and Dr. Bhandari were telling--they apparently moonlight as comedians ;P Highly recommend this place!
