Your Yonge Eglinton Periodontics Team

As a board certified periodontist, I specialize in the treatment of gum disease and the placement of dental implants. I received my specialty training and completed a Master of Science at the University of Toronto as part of the Graduate Periodontal Program. Prior to studying periodontology, I received my dental degree from the University of Toronto and completed a General Practice Residency at Tufts University School of Dental Medicine in Boston, Massachusetts.

During my dental education, I received numerous awards and recognitions, including the Dean’s Gold Medal. I also completed clinical research examining the potential benefits of resveratrol, an anti-oxidant, in the treatment of chronic gum disease. I am currently a fellow of the Royal College of Dentists of Canada and a member of the Ontario Dental Association, Ontario Society of Periodontists, and Alpha Omega Dental Fraternity.

Teaching the next generation of dentists the importance of good clinical skills, along with compassion and a focus on individualized patient care is very important to me and I remain involved with the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Dentistry by teaching as a clinical Periodontology instructor. I also serve on staff in the Department of Dentistry at Mount Sinai Hospital.

In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, and traveling. I look forward to working with your dentist to provide honest, caring, and personalized treatment, using the most up to date periodontal and implant techniques available.

I have a background in Psychology from my undergraduate studies at the University of Toronto and in Education from my graduate studies at the University of Ottawa.

I truly enjoy the daily interactions with the familiar faces of long-term patients, as well as getting to know the fresh faces that continually come through our doors. It is wonderful to get to know a little bit about each person and help them through their periodontal treatment.

I have been in the dental field since 1995 and started working as a front desk receptionist in 2003. I get satisfaction in assisting and helping with the administrative aspect of our patients’ dental treatment in order for them to focus on their dental health/needs and leave the necessary paperwork in our hands. It is with great pride to be a part of Dr. Kay’s team because we all work together to give our patients nothing but stellar service.

My family and I enjoy mountain biking, hiking, camping, binge watching tv series and traveling.

I have been in the dental field since 2012 and I am thrilled to be working with such a passionate team at YEP with the utmost work ethic to make sure all patients are cared for properly from start to finish. I am dedicated to helping patients with their inquiries & concerns about their treatment coordination. Ever since I worked at YEP, I finally had the life-work balance I have been looking for, and thus greatly improved my growth both professionally and personally.

Outside of work, I love working out, camping, hiking with my family and 3 dogs and hanging out with friends.

After graduating from the Dental Hygiene Program at George Brown College in 1998, I continued to expand my experience working at periodontal and general dentistry practices. My experience also includes working as a clinical instructor at the Faculty of Dentistry program at the University of Toronto.

I have been part of an amazing team at Dr. Kay’s periodontal clinic since 2005. I enjoy helping patients achieve optimal oral health and educating them about continuously evolving dental treatments available. It is important to me that they feel comfortable during treatment and leave satisfied after each appointment.

I began my profession in the dental industry in 2003. where I discovered my passion for providing the highest quality of hygiene care, I am privileged to have to opportunity to work alongside Dr. Kay.

I take pride in attaining my patient’s trust and ensuring each of my patients leaves the office with a smile. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling and spending time with friends and family.

As a 1991 graduate of the Dental Hygiene program, it has been my joy to meet new people and be involved in their oral and total health care plan.

My dental hygiene journey began with general practice but continued with periodontal specialty practice from 1993. This is complemented with clinical instruction at University of Toronto for third year dental students.

In our spare time, my family and I love watching movies, playing cards and traveling.

I’ve been privileged to work with Dr. Kay since 2006. I trained in Dental Hygiene and Restorative Dental Hygiene at George Brown College and have worked in the field since 1998. What I enjoy most about what I do is earning my patients’ trust and educating and equipping them to better manage their oral health. I also appreciate working with a great dental team.

In my spare time I enjoy the company of family and friends, travel, outdoor activities and food!

I have worked at Yonge Eglinton

Periodontics as a dental hygienist since 2004 and have been in the dental profession since the late 1990s. I spend most of my time working in education as a clinical instructor at George Brown College, Durham College and University of Toronto, Faculty of Dentistry.

My goal is to provide quality hygiene care while creating a connection with my patients. In my spare time, I'm working on my adult education degree. I also enjoy travelling, yoga and spending time with family.

I always knew I would work in health care, and I decided to pursue dental hygiene because I wanted the opportunity to build relationships with my patients. I relate to our patients a lot and putting them at ease comes naturally to me. Being able to chat with patients is meaningful to me. I love hearing about their latest milestones, travel plans, and anything else they want to share with me.

To me, health care is about caring for the whole person. Everyone on this team is not only a fantastic person, but they’re also very competent and skilled in their work. Between our amazing team and incredible patients, we always seem to maintain positive energy here.

Your oral health is a big part of your overall health, and our patients deserve access to the care they need. I love watching patients walk away from their appointments feeling confident, and being a part of this positive moment makes me feel accomplished in my work.

I know a dental hygiene visit isn’t at the top of people’s desired to-do list, but our patients are pretty excited when leaving with clean, healthy teeth.

What I enjoy most about being a dental assistant is being chairside and helping with procedures. I get a lot of satisfaction from helping people get their smiles back and regain their confidence.

I love the way patients show their appreciation when they leave – some even give us a hug! This lets me know they’re happy with their treatment, which is so important to me.

When not at the office, I like spending time with my family, going for bike rides, camping, fishing and doing photography.

I have been in the dental field for more than 20 years and has been truly happy to be involved in the overall dental health of our patients. It is very satisfying to be able to assist patients on how they can further take care of their oral health. I also look forward to seeing our long-term patients and sharing updates on our life stories.

In my spare time, I love travelling, spending time with friends and family, eating, cooking and just taking it easy.

I have been a dental assistant since 1992 years and have worked with Dr. Kay since 2008. I love working in a specialty practice because it enables me to learn so much more about the field and see such a wonderful change in patients from the time they come in for the initial consultation to the final outcome when the treatment is completed.

In my spare time I enjoy rock climbing, baseball, skiing, exercising, and most of all spending time with my family and friends.

I have been in the dental field since 2019. It makes me happy to be able to help patients in any way I can-- may it be to make their appointments less nerve-racking by answering their queries to the best of my knowledge or simply to put a smile on their face. Seamless patient flow throughout the day is very important to us and I, together with the other staff, ensure that patients don’t wait more than they have to upon arriving in the office.

Outside work, I love reading books, dancing, playing badminton and spending time with friends and family.
