BURLINGTON, Ontario - March 15, 2016 - PRLog -- Dr. Sam Gupta, a dentist at Mount Royal Dental, won the Burlington Post Readers' Choice Diamond Award for dentists in February.
Dr. Gupta, known as "Dr. Sam" to his patients, graduated with honors from the University of Toronto and knew from his youth that he wanted a career in medicine.
"Even as a child I knew I wanted to be in the medical field," he said. "When the time came to make a decision, dentistry appealed to me because of its hands on component, and the opportunity I had to build a rapport with my patients."
Dr. Gupta has a particular focus on complex restorative and cosmetic dentistry. He earned certificates in those fields shortly after graduating from dental school, and teaches those and other subjects at the University of Toronto. In addition to his teaching, he takes regular continuing education classes on restorative and cosmetic dentistry, in order to stay abreast of the latest developments.
One of his practice's specialties is dental implants, which replace missing teeth. Implants aren't just aesthetic, he said.
"Without that tooth in place, surrounding teeth can shift causing gaps and making decay more likely," he said. "Bone loss and damage can occur and the area can become more apt to periodontal disease."
Mount Royal Dental holds regular information sessions for patients on topics including implants, to ensure people have the best information available when choosing a treatment plan.
