I had a number of teeth removed to make way for a new denture. The procedure is executed by a dental student with an assistant and guidance of the dentist. The procedure went very well and there were no unforeseen issues. Smili Dental contacted me the following morning to ask, how I was doing. All is well. Very professional and friendly group.

I have recently received dental treatment at Smili Dental in Powell River. Initially to received an examination and recommendations as to treatment for my oral condition. My initial appointment was addressed by Rachel the assistant who gathered information and put me at ease with her profession approach and use of modern xray equipment. Dr Katlin Meredith proceeded with a thorough examination and recommendations for treatment which were well informed and showed the obvious course to proceed. I felt my questions and concerns were addressed with knowledge and empathy. On 28th of July I returned and was treated by a UBC Student who did a number of extractions and additional Repairs for sinus perforation this student and her assistant who's names I did not capture due to my poor hearing were really excellent and did the work at hand carefully and with a great measure of expertise. I am writing this some few hours later with a sense that the work was well done and I must express my deep appreciation.

From the front desk to the chair in the back the ladies were welcoming, accommodating & gentle with this old fella..! Got me in at short notice, the tooth patched up & on my way with plenty of smiles & laughter. Even more amazingly, on a Monday!! Thanks Smili:)

5000% recommend Erik. In the past I had 2 consults for Invisalign/Wondersmile wherein it was claimed the results would be exactly the same as after braces. I walked both times because when I read other people’s experiences online it did not reflect that. I finally got an honest answer from Erik, that some particular movements just won’t be achieved with retainers. He clearly described what results I could reasonably expect INSTEAD OF promising me the world, having me sign something saying it’s not his fault if it doesn’t work, and then blaming the imperfections on me for not doing my treatment properly- like I too often read happens to others. I’ve often thought how hard it must be for some people to stay honest in business when it can be so easy and lucrative to bend the truth. For one to be as knowledgeable and forthright as Erik is admirable.

Great experience with getting a tooth crown at Smili Dental in Powell River. Modern office and equipment, capable caring team, perfect workmanship from Dr. Minhas... new crown looks and feels great. I felt well-informed every step of the way.

This office made room for me in a dental emergency. They were proficient and caring. They explained everything and answered all questions. Dr. Minhas was exceptional! Never have I had needles go in so gently even though with the amount of swelling he said it was resistive to do so. As an out of towner I would highly recommend Smili Dentist and Dr. Minhas

I was visiting Powell River when my crown fell off and I suddenly needed dental care. I contacted Smiley Dental and was initially placed on a wait list on Friday, but by Monday there was a cancellation and I was able to be seen by Dr. Minhas with assistance from Jenna. From my first phone conversation through to the end of my appointment, I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism, organization, and friendliness of all the staff. I would also like to mention Alyssa, who handled the billing and contacted my extended healthcare provider on my behalf; her efficiency and clear communication made the process smooth and stress-free. As a visitor, I felt very well cared for and reassured throughout the entire experience, and I would highly recommend Smiley Dental to anyone in need of prompt, compassionate, and professional dental care.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Our family recently relocated to Powell River and had our first visit at SMILI Dental. The whole team was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and professional. They made us feel welcome right away and took the time to explain everything clearly. It can be stressful finding a new dentist after moving, but they made the experience smooth and comfortable. We’re very happy to have found such a great dental clinic in town. Highly recommend! 😊

I had a good experience at Smili Dental during my first complete exam and cleaning. Heather, the hygienist was incredibly friendly, thorough, and she took the time to explain everything in a clear and reassuring way. Dr. Erik Schien was also very welcoming, and did an excellent job explaining my dental health and treatment options.The entire visit felt comfortable and professional, and I truly appreciated how well informed I felt throughout the appointment. I highly recommend Smili Dental. Gerry Brach

Make sure you confirm your appointment before or they will cancel it even if you show up on time. The chair side assistant was very pleasant. My guess is this is an entry position prior to becoming a dental assistant The doctor examination was very pleasant, even though I can’t pronounce his name and it’s not listed on their website The equipment seems brand new and the pictures were impressive
