About Your BC Perio Dental Clinic
Dr. Bobby Birdi, with the help of his colleagues, founded the BC Perio Dental Health and Implant Centre with a very specific goal in mind: to help patients regain the ability to smile, chew and speak comfortably, either through providing the highest quality of dental implant, periodontal, or prosthetic treatment possible, or through enabling fellow dentists through focused, practical education to perform a variety of dental procedures.
We have placed over 30,000+ dental implants in over 30+ years with great success!
Our goal is to make you feel calm and comfortable
The doctors at BC Perio Dental Health and Implant Centre specialize in all facets of periodontal and surgical therapy, with a strong focus on dental implant treatments that can replace single, multiple, or all missing teeth. In addition, the clinic provides minimally invasive nonsurgical and surgical treatment using the newest cutting-edge technology such as microscopes, lasers, and computer-guided surgery. We look forward to helping you with your oral health!
Dr. Birdi and his colleagues believe that your right to choose a dentist is an important freedom. We work closely with your dentist, but a referral by a dentist is not required to visit our office. We also welcome referrals from patients and friends of the practice.
We are here to listen to your questions and to provide solutions to your oral health concerns.
Our Office Philosophy :
- To provide the highest quality of care possible, while listening to each individual patient’s needs.
- To provide the most up-to-date and proven treatments, through the use of cutting-edge technology.
- To provide a friendly and professional environment for our patients and their families.
- To ensure that we always offer the best treatment possible, by keeping up with new treatments/current literature and pursuing continuing education courses.
- To continue to be leaders in our field by critically evaluating our treatment results.
- To impart our knowledge to our colleagues through teaching on a local, national, and international level
We Are Committed to Your Dental Work
Our Guarantee
Rarely, a dental clinic will have a written policy or offer a guarantee on it’s work. We do it because we believe you are making the choice of a reputable clinic that will guarantee our work. We want you to feel our treatment is worth what you are investing.
Patients often ask how long their dental implants will last. After all, they are making an investment in replacing their missing teeth, and the long-term success of their treatment is an important part of their decision. When implants are placed by experienced surgeons and restored properly by restorative dentists, our experiences and dental literature reflect success rates of over 98%. But, just how long do they last? The answer is a very long time – potentially a lifetime. In fact, we offer a lifetime warranty on all of our dental implant parts.
The longevity of dental implants is truly multi-faceted and depends on the quality of the surgery and restorative treatment, the quality of the patient’s bone, the quality of the materials used, the patient’s health, individual healing physiology, oral hygiene, and regular professional care. While certain health conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes, can alter a person’s immune system and impair the success of implants, most other factors are within our control. With careful attention to every detail during treatment and long-term support and care, we have achieved a success rate of over 99% with our implant treatments over the many years of experience.
We have designed a unique implant treatment program, along with our lifetime warranty, which helps our patients to eat better, smile more, live healthier, and now have peace of mind about their investment.
