Meet Our Doctors

We’re here because we love to help.

Dr. Sunil Thanik

DMD, MSD

Dr. Sunil Thanik comes from a family of dentists – both his father and grandfather were dentists. That probably explains why he has been a fan of dentistry since he was a kid. In his mind, dentistry is the perfect field in which science and people come together.

During dental school, he was fascinated by the connection between whole body health and gum disease. For this reason, he considered specializing in Periodontology. When he learned that periodontists often build long-lasting relationships with their patients, he knew it was the right path for him.

When you first meet Dr. Thanik, you’ll immediately notice his warmth and compassion. You’ll also be happy to learn that he has a great sense of humor! Dr. Thanik was born and raised in Canada – if you listen closely, you may still hear bits of an accent.
