Philosophy & History

Atlantis Dental Centre was established in December 1997 to serve the dental needs of the newly developed Concord Pacific community in Yaletown, downtown Vancouver's most dynamic and fastest growing neighborhood. Being the first dental office on Pacific Blvd., the office has grown steadily and is now serving over 2000 patients with all facets of general and cosmetic dentistry. Our Philosophy is simple: Deliver leading edge, yet proven techniques and technologies in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere.
