Enjoyable visits


Few people enjoy a visit to a dentist, but I always enjoy my visits. It's true. I enjoy going to Summerhill Gardens Dental -- for three reasons.

The first reason is Dr. Marika herself, who is a most attractive and personable woman, intelligent, informed, professional, concerned, dedicated, skilled, and lively. As well, she maintains her connection with the School of Dentistry at the University of Toronto as an instructor. This association is quite important -- she knows "what is going on" in dental theory and practice.


The second reason is the personal and professional calibre of her assistants, notably Roxy and Jennifer and Christina, who are top-notch and very friendly.

The third reason is the sense that I have that a group of people are dedicated to doing their best to make sure my "bite" is just right. And it is .... thanks to Dr. Marika and Summerhill Gardens Dental!

Relief and repair


Visits to the dentist are happy occasions for me. This may be unusual for many people, but going to the dentist for me means relief and repair!

Dr. Marika has been endlessly kind and patient, as I go through adjustments to my dental work.

For reasons of professional skill and personal concern, I would recommend Dr. Marika to all those people who have known what it is to dread going to the dentist. You will be happy with Dr. Marika!

    After many years of being very self-conscious of the way my smile looked I finally decided to treat my spaced teeth. Following a consultation with Dr. Marika Dekanoidze, she suggested I try Invisalign and it has been the best decision I have ever made. My teeth look great and I have the confidence I always wanted to flash that big smile. Summerhill Gardens Dental and its staff are very inviting and always make me feel at home. Thank you for the smiles and the care!

    The team at Summerhill Gardens Dental is exceptional all up and down the chain. I feel cared for, respected and, most importantly, I feel like a human being, not just a patient or a number. Dr. Dekanoidze and her staff care about what I do and ask about my family. In other words, they care about the whole person, not just a mouth full of teeth. Bravo.
