Terry Fox Dental Centre
When you visit our office, you will discover something unusually familiar, and comforting: family style care. We are a family-run practice, and we aspire to provide you, your children and your loved ones with the highest quality of dental care, within a warm and caring environment. It is our belief that quality dental care is not only determined by sophisticated and innovative dental technology, but also by sincere and wise decision making.

Our mission is that you become an informed and collaborative member in you and your kids' own dental care. If you feel as though your needs are not being met at another dental office, or if you're just new to the neighbourhood, we promise to treat you, your children and loved ones like one of our own family members, and in return, we ask you to be completely at ease with communicating your desires and dental concerns with us.
Services
Since 2008, Firas, Susan, and their three young children have called Ottawa their home. Their practice, the Terry Fox Dental Centre, is designed as a family-centered clinic, where every effort has been made to combine the latest in dental care technologies with the soothing comforts of home. The practice is also regularly used as a venue for supporting community initiatives.
Payment is due when services are rendered. We accept cash, debit, Visa and Mastercard. Our staff will be happy to assist you with your dental insurance by electronically submitting claims to your insurance company on your behalf, or we will help you fill out the necessary paperwork if your insurance company does not accept electronic claims.
If you're one of the many patients who prefer mercury-free amalgam fillings, you'll be happy to know that Terry Fox Dental can accommodate your request. Terry Fox Dental can improve your oral health and your smile by repairing or replacing your natural teeth with amalgam-free materials. Amalgam-free options are available for many dental procedures, including fillings and crowns.
Gone are the days when tooth trauma and cavities could only be treated with unsightly metal fillings. Today, modern, tooth-colored fillings made of durable resin can be bonded to your teeth for a stronger, more natural-looking effect. Composite fillings are virtually undetectable and require only a single appointment to apply.
Are you suffering from missing teeth, or becoming frustrated because you're having trouble chewing, speaking or even biting food? If so, a bridge may be right for you. Bridges fill in the gaps between your natural teeth with natural-looking artificial teeth.

Semi-permanent and comfortable, Terry Fox Dental can fit you for a bridge that will help improve the appearance of your smile and while at the same time offering strength and support to your natural teeth.

I am so grateful to be a patient of Dr. Daftary aka "Dr.D". She is so incredibly talented. I've also seen Dr. Khalili for an emergency visit and he was amazing! I've always been so frightened to go to the dentist. That is no longer the case...I look forward to it now!!! Dr. Daftary's dentistry is outstanding and painless. Liz did a super job with my teeth cleaning and I can't say enough about Stephanie and the rest of the Terry Fox Dental Centre staff. They are terrific. As I mentioned, I'm very grateful to be a patient here!

Dr. Daftary and Dr. Khalili are both great dentists. They are very knowledgeable and compassionate. I have a filling, crown, root canal emergency extraction done on different teeth. They were done professionally and I would highly recommend them. The office staff is friendly and welcoming and the x-ray techs/dental assistants and hygienists are thorough and gentle!

So here's a million dollar question...who actually looks forward going to the dentist? Not a whole lot of people, but I always do! It's all because of Dr. K, Dr. D, the team of hygienists and the office staff. Everyone is always so kind, and so gentle (when it comes to the cleaning). When Dr. K comes to see you, it's like catching up with a friend you haven't seen in forever. Always so genuine and fun! I've been a patient for several years here and have never had better treatment - I'd recommend this team and great group of people anytime. Keep up the amazing work, everyone!

Dr.Susan Daftary has provided me with expert dental care for over 11 years. I have never been looked after so well in my entire life. Her care and devotion to my dental health has been exemplary. I will always remain ever grateful to her and her wonderful staff.

Dr. K and his team are incredible. Consistent 5 star service from beginning to end. Dr. K is truly an honest, kind and caring professional. A special 'Thank You' to Tia and Dr. K for always taking care of me. My family and I have been patients here for many years and we will never go anywhere else. Highly recommend this clinic!

I couldn't recommend Terry Fox Dental more! I've been coming here for quite some time now and have nothing but amazing things to say about everyone here. Dr. Al Khalili is always all smiles and makes you feel so at home. The team of receptionists, hygienists, and dentists work together to deliver some of the best service I've had the pleasure of receiving, hands down.

I never thought I'd give a dental office a five star review but the whole experience was so professional and very caring. Talking to Dr. Khalili is honestly like talking to a good friend. I had somewhat of a complicated procedure but he took the time to explain things to me in a way that I could really understand, and made me feel that he had my best interest at heart. The service was amazing, as was the follow-up. Thank you again.

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Khalili for nearly 10 years. I'm typically nervous when it comes to getting work done on my teeth; however, Dr. K always makes me feel at ease with his jokes. His staff are very friendly and accommodating when it comes to scheduling an appointment. I highly recommend choosing Terry Fox Dental Centre!

Dr. K has been amazing! I hadn’t been to a dentist in many years as I didn’t have coverage nor money to pay for any dental services. I was pretty embarrassed going in after many years but Dr. K and his staff were extremely welcoming and didn’t make me feel bad at all. They made a treatment plan and we’ve been working on it for a while. Now I’m getting married next year and Dr. K has just recently fixed my smile!!! We did four crowns on my front teeth and I couldn’t be happier. The process wasn’t painless nor easy but he did his best to keep me at ease and the final product is outstanding

Recently I went on a hunt to look for a good dentist in Ottawa and I happen to luck out since its close to my work and the best one I've ever had (out of 4).

I am of course speaking off Susan Daftary and her amazing staff, at the Terry Fox Dental Centre. I was having sharp pain in one of my tooth so I walked into the clinic and I got an examination the same day. Two days later Dr Daftary was playing tug o' war with my wisdom tooth and well the tooth lost.

Dr Daftary is very polite and takes her time to explain everything to the patient. As far as skill goes, she is absolutely amazing
