Additional Information

Typically a general cleaning will last around 60 minutes while one of our qualified hygienists gently cleans the surfaces of your teeth. The process rids your teeth of any built up tartar, plaque, and stains by using an ultrasonic water scaler and various manual scalers. The hygienist will then carefully examine your mouth for any existing or potential problems such as decay or periodontal disease.

“My family and I have been patients of Dr. Aliakbari for over two decades, and we couldn’t be happier with the care we’ve received. I have a lot of dental anxiety, but he is always incredibly gentle, patient, and reassuring, making every visit stress-free. He takes the time to explain everything and ensures I’m comfortable throughout the appointment. The secretary is also very accommodating and makes scheduling a breeze. If you're looking for a skilled and compassionate dentist, I highly recommend Dr. Aliakbari!”

“I’ve never had bad experience at Granville Station dental. I’ve been patient since 2012, all staffs and doctors always have been nice. I’ve seen Dr.Alghabi for annual check normally, but recently I had filling came off so saw Dr.Hariri who was working on the weekend. He made sure if doesn’t feel good, I can even come next day to consult again. Another great experience. Thank you!”

“I’ve been seeing Michelle at Granville Dental for years now. Without a doubt the best CDA I’ve ever seen. Not only does she make me feel comfortable going to the dentist. But the least discomfort with any actual procedure that gets done. I would highly recommend her to everyone.”

“I have been a longtime patient here, for good reason. The staff are all super professional, friendly and helpful. The hygienists are fantastic and thorough, and the dentists are the best I have ever come across. I have never experienced any discomfort at any time with them when getting any sort of work done. I had a filling put in yesterday and I forgot about it this morning until I received a follow up email from them. Truly a great team!”
