Newcastle Smile Dental Centre has earned a 5.0-star rating across more than 330 Google reviews from patients throughout Newcastle, Clarington, and the surrounding Durham Region, and it’s why the practice was named a Clarington Readers’ Choice winner. Dr. Brendan Wong, Dr. Vernon D’Souza, and the team have built their reputation one appointment at a time, from routine checkups to first fillings to helping lifelong dental-anxious patients feel comfortable in the chair. Below, in their own words, is what patients say about their visits.
“Living in Newcastle and it having 5 dental offices, I did some research and chose Newcastle Smile Dental Centre. Dr. Brendan is amazing. He explained everything and was thorough.” — Renee Hyland, Google review
“Haven’t needed a filling in years so was kind of nervous about today’s appointment. I was so pleasantly surprised at how quick and easy it went. Dr Brendan (Wong) is amazing… so skilled, gentle and kind. I mean zero discomfort. What a great team!” — Deidre Ward, Google review
“Dental procedures have always been one of my biggest fears, so visiting the dentist is never easy for me. However, the team here made the entire experience so much more comfortable than I expected.” — Anju George, Google review
“I had an absolutely incredible experience at this dentist and I genuinely can’t recommend them enough! 100/10 experience! From the moment I walked in, the team was beyond welcoming, so kind, friendly, and professional.” — Maimoona Maryam, Google review
“Best dental office in Newcastle!! The one in the Tim Horton’s plaza deserve 10 stars!!” — Verified patient, RateMDs review, 2017
“Staff extremely welcoming and great with my kids… very good with anxious people such as myself!!” — Verified patient, RateMDs review
Across hundreds of reviews spanning nearly a decade, a few themes come up again and again:
Gentle, painless care for anxious patients. Multiple patients specifically describe overcoming long-standing dental fear at this office. Nitrous oxide sedation is offered for anxious patients, including children, and reviewers regularly single out Dr. Wong and Dr. D’Souza’s chairside manner as the reason a stressful appointment felt easy.
A genuine family practice. Parents mention bringing their kids here and receiving the same warm, patient treatment the whole family gets – consistent with a practice that has served Newcastle families since well before 2017.
Clear communication. A recurring detail in reviews is that the dentists explain each step of treatment before and during the appointment, rather than leaving patients in the dark.
A welcoming front desk. Reception and hygiene staff are called out almost as often as the dentists themselves — patients note flexible scheduling, direct billing, and a front desk that makes new patients feel comfortable from the first call.
New patients and walk-ins are always welcome. Book online or call (289) 629-1930 for new patients, or (905) 446-5500 if you’re already part of the Newcastle Smile family.
