Dentist in
Vancouver, BC

I live on The Sunshine Coast which is less than easy for me to travel to Vancouver for an appointment. When I called and spoke with Nicole she graciously offered me a phone consultation. I felt that Dr Palos listened to my questions and concerns and addressed my issues. I found this so refreshing, but also rare. I highly recommend the clinic.

My first impression of Dr Sam Paulos and the Enlighten Dental Team was very positive. They were very personable and professional. Dr Paulos explained in detail the results of the X-rays and examination and then followed with a proposed treatment plan of implants and crowns which will be implemented over several months. I believe and trust that my future dental health will be in the very best of hands. Thank you!

I've been with Enlighten for a few years because I was interested in holistic dental care and they are excellent. I was nervous about switching my dentist and hygienist when they both left the office (to pursue private practice) and I have been extremely impressed with all of the dental and administrative staff. As a holistic practice, they also give advice and only do procedures that are necessary and the patient agrees to, rather than just doing the norm every time without the patient really knowing why or if its optional. ie I don't get my teeth polished to preserve my thin enamel. They care. I'm also a bit quirky with some sensitivity and preferences, and they listen and do their best to ensure I'm comfortable sharing these preferences, and comfortable during my appointments. I highly recommend Enlighten, and especially Dr Lauren & hygienist Jason.

I’ve trusted Enlighten Dental — and especially Dr. Sam Paulos — for over a decade, through some of the most complex dental and surgical challenges imaginable. Dr. Paulos is not only a brilliant surgeon and dentist, but also one of the kindest and most dedicated healthcare professionals I’ve ever known. I’ve never felt safer or more supported. Ever. His surgical skill is exceptional, his care is genuine, and he consistently goes above and beyond. The clinic uses state-of-the-art equipment in a beautiful, calming environment, and the entire team is professional, caring, thoughtful, and incredibly supportive. I’m profoundly grateful for everything they have provided for me and recommend them wholeheartedly.

I had a great experience with one of the staff at the front desk today. Nave was exceptionally kind and patient while helping me reschedule my appointment. She explained the cancellation policy clearly and without rushing, and she made me feel fully understood and supported throughout the process. Her warm attitude and professionalism truly stood out. Thank you, Nave, for making everything so easy and pleasant!
