It is important to have a comfortable relationship with your dentist and no one understands that better than we do at Dentistry in Waterloo. We understand that in order for us to achieve the best results, we must develop a trusting relationship with our clients. Our patients are therefore our first priority and developing an open and trusting relationship with them is the central philosophy upon which our practice is built.
Since providing compassionate care is our main objective, we strive to ensure that our patients feel at ease. The environment of our dental clinic is relaxing much unlike many other dental clinics in Waterloo. The first impression many patients get when they walk in is that they have walked into a spa.
In addition to the relaxing atmosphere, our staff is compassionate. There is someone ready to assist you from the moment you walk into the dental clinic to the time you are ready to leave. If you are confused about anything, don’t hesitate to ask a member of staff for clarification. Our staff strive to create a welcome atmosphere that will help patients relax.
Personalized Oral CareOur staff is well trained and professional. You can therefore be sure that you are not only getting the best Waterloo dentists in, but also the best in customer service. Our goal is to provide our clients with personalized oral care. We therefore strive to understand the needs of each individual by developing a close relationship with each client. We treat each case individually to ensure that we can provide each patient with their own individualized treatment. This ensures that each patient gets the best oral health care possible.
If you are having dental problems and are not sure that you need to see a dentist just yet, you should take some time to read through the information provided on our website. We provide comprehensive information on issues of concern that many of our patients raise. There is information on common dental problems, how to diagnose these problems and the most common treatment methods available for these problems.
We believe that ensuring that our patients are well informed is important. A well informed patient is in a better position to make important decisions about their oral health. They better understand the risks involved with any treatment and the results of not having treatment done. They are also in a better position to care for their own oral health following treatment.

Holman Yu
Dentist
Dr. Holman Yu graduated from the University of Connecticut dental school and practiced in the United States for 5 years before coming back to Canada in 2008 for family. Prior to studying at Connecticut, he attended University of Toronto and received a Bachelor of Science with distinction. Dr. Yu has received multiple awards including the Pierre Fouchard Award – future leader in the community and a community service award from the University of Connecticut. While in dental school he was very involved in extracurricular activities. These included working with the Connecticut Dental Student Association, taking on vice presidency of ASDA (American Student Dental Association), becoming National Consultant on Diversity for the ADA (Amer
ican Dental Association), and the chief editor of the University of Connecticut Dental Journal.
For Dr. Yu, dentistry is based on science, but artistry and heart brings it to life. Since he began practicing dentistry, Dr. Yu has kept up to date on many continuing educational classes, ensuring that his patients receive the most comprehensive and advanced dental care. Certifications in implants, Invisalign, nitrous oxide, and Cerec give patients a wider variety of treatment plans.
Dr. Yu and his wife Inez met in high school and married 8 years later in 2003. They had their first born, Aidan, back in 2006 when they were still living in Connecticut. In 2009, they had their second son, Lucian, in Toronto. Dr. Yu now spends most of his extra time keeping up with his two, very energetic, sons.

Never have I had a dental team so committed to my comfort when I am in the chair. Accustomed as I am to experiencing pain during the most basic procedures (like x-rays) due to the structure of my inner jaw, in the nearly ten years I have been seeing Dr Yu, he and his team have made every effort to ensure I have a pain-free experience. Thanks!

While the dentist and hygienists were good and the office is very clean and quite beautiful, the administration is deplorable. Incorrect billing each and every time I visited the office. I wasted a lot of time waiting for invoices and coming back when mistakes were made or being called at work to talk through errors the staff had made with billing. Disappointed to have to find a new dentist however it is worthwhile to not have the deal with the repeated frustration of clerical errors on each visit. I recommend this practice invest in experienced staff that can serve patients well from an Administrative perspective as well.

Was 5 years overdue on my routine dental care, and I couldn't be happier that I chose Dr Yu's office to pick up where I left off. Very calm atmosphere, a pristine office, and an exceptionally professional staff. My appointments were quick and painless - can't recommend them enough.

By far the best Dentistry Office in Waterloo! I always feel welcomed and answered promptly when coming in for an appointment. I used to have anxiety when coming in, (i don’t think many people LOVE coming to the dentist) But i assure you Dr. Yu and his staff make you feel so comfortable during every appointment. From general cleanings, getting fillings, to having teeth pulled, to just recently finishing Invisalign… i highly recommend going to the Dentistry in Waterloo! You will not be disappointed!
