Lyle S. Pidzarko, DDS – Ocean Dental Centre

Implant Dentist in Burnaby, BC V5H 0A3

For someone who enjoys helping people and who loves to work with his hands, dentistry is an ideal profession. “I really enjoy making a difference in people’s lives,” says Dr. Pidzarko. “It is so rewarding to help the patient to get to their goal of comfort and confidence in their smile when we restore or enhance their teeth. It’s great when our patients leave here feeling good about their health and appearance.”

“Implant dentistry allows me to offer better solutions to patients who have missing teeth and who wish to have something that looks and functions more naturally and comfortably. Individual teeth, implant supported bridges or implant supported dentures can dramatically improve how people feel about themselves and we can return them to normal function. I love to sit down with people and discuss what they would like to change and then I can create a custom solution that best suits the individual”
