Services
My profession gives me the means to connect with my patients and help them achieve optimal health. Gaining patients' trust and making them feel comfortable during treatment is my ultimate goal, and seeing their smile as an expression of satisfaction with my performance is my ultimate reward. I am honored to have the privilege to care for my patients and to contribute to their good health and well-being.
CEREC is a technology for restoring damaged teeth, and this restoration can be completed in a single visit to the doctor's office. It makes your teeth stronger and more beautiful, all while keeping your teeth looking natural. The restoration is metal-free, and the high-grade ceramic material is compatible with the natural tissue found in your mouth.
Research shows that 75% of the population suffers from some form of periodontal disease. Dental hygiene cleanings alone will not eliminate harmful, infectious oral bacteria. If you have other risk factors such as diabetes, heart disease, poor nutrition, taking medications, moderate to high stress, or you are a smoker, these increase the potential for disease to progress quickly.
Consider Invisalign treatment to get the beautiful straight teeth you've always wanted - without braces. A consultation with our doctors can determine if Invisalign clear aligners are right for you. Invisalign treatment uses a series of virtually invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that allow you to smile more during treatment as well as after.
Noticeable results, no surgery, and no recovery time - discover the benefits of Botox(R) at our practice. There are many different reasons that patients choose to receive Botox treatment, from wanting to remove fine lines and wrinkles to treating more severe conditions such as TMJ and chronic migraines.

100% would recommend Gilmour Dental Centre. I use their services for normal dental appts, but i also just completed an Invisalign journey with Dr. Amzar and her staff. She listened to all my concerns and we ended up minimizing the duration of my orthodontic work by 6 months. I cannot express my happiness enough at the very short duration and working with Dr. Amzar and her staff.
The reception staff are also super friendly and always pleasant and made me feel comfortable even during COVID.

Very professional and incredibly skilled Dr and team. I completed an invisalign treatment here and I am so pleased with the results. It went faster than originally planned and every appointment I had with Dr Amzar and her assistants was enjoyable. The team kept me well informed throughout and provided an incredible level of care. Making them my permanent dental office was a no brainer after that :) Thanks again, keep up the good work!

Do not think twice, book an appointment here. I have been going to this clinic for decades and it has consistently been a better than great experience regardless of ownership. My most recent experience was getting Invisalign, which honestly I dragged my heels all the way through. If I knew the result was going to be as outstanding as it was/is I would have been more relaxed. The time they took with me, care and knowledge of the staff, especially Dr. Amzar is truly exceptional. Do yourself a favour and be a client of this truly incredible team of professionals.

This is the first time I leave a review online. This should say something. I have recently had orthodontic treatment done by Dr. Amzar and her team, Diane, Jennifer and Yim. The experience was as good as it gets. I am very happy with the result and the timespan of the treatment was exactly what they had told me before starting it. Everyone at Gilmour Dental Centre is friendly and professional. They actually make your dentist appointments pleasant.

I have been going to this dental office for over 34 years, my family has been using them for over 4 generations. They are true professionals at this office, they are caring, genuine and want the best for their clients. They office staff are so friendly and make you feel important when you arrive. I completed my braces during COVID and they make the experience and process very good. I highly recommend them, they take pride in their business and it shows. My children enjoy going to the dentist because they feel right at home with the staff.

This is an amazing place to go if you need your teeth done. Not only were the entire team amazing, but they also made you feel very comfortable. Dr. Amzar was an amazing dentist. She would brief you in on the process and truly cares about her client's satisfaction!

I finished my Invisalign treatment with Dr. Amzar yesterday and could not be more thrilled with my smile! Throughout the process, Dr. Amzar and her assistant Diane were incredibly thorough, ensuring that the result would be perfect, and even managed to continue my progress through the pandemic while their offices were closed. She is not only incredibly brilliant at dentistry but also very kind and fun-spirited, making the process better than I could have imagined. Diane and Dr. Amzar make a great team with their banter and skill. Their entire staff is very professional and infectiously bubbly!

Dr Earle became my dentist just over 40 years ago. Very happy that the new owners of his practice are as wonderful as he was. Dr Birsila is one of the best and the entire staff are also very professional and just nice people. On Thursday I had a new crown installed - in/out in less than 2 hours (with 45 minutes of downtime waiting for the crown to be built ) and left with a new permanent crown...and No Pain beyond a normal jaw ache that day, fine today … Highly recommend this Dental Centre

Dr Amzar is a wonderful, skillful, knowledgeable partitioner. Her demeanour is outstanding. She is a caring individual who is highly patient-driven. She is supported by her partner Dr. Birsila and an incredible staff of assistants, hygienists, and administrative staff - with special mention for Jennifer, at the front office, who is also a caring, delightful person who makes time for everyone. The office runs highly efficient with no real waiting time for your appointments. Emergencies are handled equally efficient. I do not know if Gilmour Dental is taking new patients but if they are, I would
