Enlighten is great with communication. Appointment confirmation and reminders are clear. I filled out a form in advance which made check-in easy and efficient. Jason completed my cleaning and was warm, welcoming, and thorough. Great experience overall for a first visit - excited to have a great dental team in Vancouver.

Dr Sam, Dr Anthony, hygiene and all of the support staff are absolutely amazing. My son had his wisdom teeth extracted - he was cared for and comforted through his fears. I had my teeth cleaned and all my concerns addressed and options explained.

I had to go to Enlighten Dental for an emergency procedure. They were able to fit me in to their busy schedule. The staff was friendly and professional and the procedure was 100% pain free. I highly recommend this clinic.

I would like to thank to all who took care of me at Enlighten Dental. They are all amazing and very professional. I have a dentist phobia and getting Dr. Anthony Huang to do my dental work was perfect. I am very hyper and with my phobia, it can become difficult to deal with me, however, Dr. Huang was patient and thorough and highly sensitive to my fears. I also got a cleaning from Oliana who was fantastic and patient and explained everything in detail. In general, everyone was friendly and professional. I am very satisfied with my experience and would recommend Enlighten Dental, Dr. Anthony Huang

I am so grateful for this clinic. After watching Root Cause Documentary and doing my own research I began to look for a Biological Dentist. I am so glad I found Enlightened Dental. I am also happy that I got rid of my root canal and this clinic took care of my problem. I would totally recommend them and I am not going back to my old dentist and I will be coming to this Dental along with my family.

My daughter had an extremely traumatic dentist experience prior to Enlighten Dental. We travelled all the way from Salt Spring for this appointment as Enlighten Dental was highly recommended to me by a fellow local mama. Dr. Anthony and team were so wonderful! They answered all my daughter's questions and reassured her every step of the way. They restored her faith in dentists.

I was recommended this place because the owner, Sam, is a friend of a friend. But I was given Dr. Huang, (only 27 years old, fresh out of school) who was very inexperienced and immature. He would not address my issues, nor listen to my concerns. He actually said "Be quiet and let me do the talking."
Then he proceeded to give me the WRONG treatment, even though I was explaining his mistake. When he finally realized he was wrong, he got so embarrassed that the threatened to end the appointment! So unprofessional.
They ended up charging me $1150 for a simple whole tooth extraction, as they
