You are the most helpful
and pleasant individual I have met to date in my forty-nine years of visiting dentists! A heartfelt thank-you does not even begin to do justice to all that you have done for me. ---Peter Hubert |
| =========================================== | |
| I truly appreciated all the time you
took with me. I have never had a dentist that truly cared about my teeth and me, and worked together with me about the highest thoughts for my teeth. Thank you so much. --- Christine Hyatt Brown |
|
| ============================================================ | |
| Dr. Tugbang’s caring,
patient and thorough approach has
made her the best choice for our family. She has built a
warm, peaceful environment. Her knowledge and use of new
techniques and technology in her office give us a sense of
assurance that she is up-to-date and makes our dental health her
priority. I have recommended her to many of our friends and will
continue to do so. --- Shirley Paterson |

“I am very pleased with the work Dr. Kara did on my crowns and
with the zoom whitening. At every step he made sure that I was
happy with the results. The Hygienists and front staff are
excellent.” |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
“The care I received from Dr. Kara and staff was first class.
Before coming to Sage Dental Centre I was scared to smile, with
the work done I can’t stop smiling my teeth look brand new!
Thank you Dr. Kara and Staff “ |
|

“As a 43 year old man, I hate the dentist. I have had many
dentists during my stay on this planet and all of them inflicted
pain which in turn caused me to resent the "dentist." Now, every
tooth in my mouth has a filling or has a root canal or is just
rotten in general. Sure, I could blame my parents for not
guiding me in the finer points of tooth care but in the end, it
really is my own fault. I never floss but I always brushed twice
a day for at least 30 seconds per brush (yeah, yeah,
yeah...should have been two minutes a brush but what can you
do?). I just needed someone to show me the way... I have had two
crowns put in and two cavities filled along with the cleaning
and sedation. The dental team is first class and really care
about my hatred towards their profession. I generally feel at
ease in the chair and this is a result of the staff and their
care. I also respect Dr. Shafiq Kara's approach. He never skirts
a question and always answers me with the utmost
professionalism. I really respect that and I really like him. I
don't mind going to the dentist as much as I used to and I have
also begun flossing every other day. At 43 years of age, it's
about time I started taking care of my teeth and Dr Kara has put
me on the right path. Thank you.” |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
“This was an amazing experience Dr. Kara was so kind and I felt
very relaxed. The cleaning was pain free and as a diabetic it
was usually painful for me. I am very excited about the newer
way things are done here. Very happy thanks!” |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
“Today I had a crown replaced and the whole experience was
stress free and painless.
Dr.
Kara and his team are great.
Believe it or not I even got a snooze in.” |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
“I couldn’t be happier with my decision to switch to Dr. Kara
from my prior “old school” dentist. Welcome to the future in
dental care! I love my dentist and the entire staff they are
professional and very courteous. I recently had 6 new veneers
done on the top and LOVE the results. Another satisfied
customer.” |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
“This being my first botox experience, all the staff was extra
informative and answered all my questions. It was a nice
non-pressured appointment. Dr. Kara was genuinely sincere about
expectations and his desire to reduce the lines and scars on my
forehead. I look and feel younger and more attractive. I highly
recommend Dr. Kara to all my friends and anyone wanting a
fantastic experience.” |
|
| ============================================================ | |
| For the first
time in many years I now have mercury and amalgam free teeth and
I do want to express my appreciation for the gentle and
professional manner in which you performed your artistic
talents. You also convinced me that there are dentists who care
about the comfort of their patients and I shall be forever
grateful for your kindness and concern. --- Lorne Mastin. |

I am totally
delighted with the new smile I now walk around with every day!
Maria and the staff at Sage Dental worked with me for a year to
do something to almost every tooth in my mouth. And did I ever
need it! Old fillings were breaking down, the straightening
the Orthodontist had done years earlier had shifted, and it
looked like two aching teeth would need root canals. At Sage
they thoroughly analyzed my situation, developed a plan I could
follow and afford, and kept me comfortable through all the
procedures. Maria took the time to do each step right, so I got
the functionality and look I wanted. The aches went away and my
teeth have never looked so good. The exceptional team at Sage
will do the same for you. |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
When I got home and
lightened up and looked at my smile...well... I was ecstatic.
Thank you all so much for your attention to detail
(outstanding!), your professionalism and your lovely warm giving
personalities. Do you guys ever have a bad day? You are all
truly talented; I hope you realize that you are better than the
rest!!!!!! Wear it proudly. |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
My new teeth feel
great and look even better! Thanks sooooo much for all you've
done for me! I'm sending much love and Yuen energy to you all!! |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
I just wanted to show
my deep appreciation for the patient and careful work that Dr
Tugbang did on my "difficult" bite on Tuesday. I can now do
what I couldn't do for many years: chew on both sides of my
mouth simultaneously! This is quite an enormous change in my
experience of eating! Thank you so very much for being so
generous by finding time to fit me into your very busy day. |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
I just wanted to let you know that the freezing is almost out. I am at the office and other than a bit of aching in my jaw from having my mouth open for so long I feel great. I will be referring
everyone I know to have their wisdom teeth out at this practice
as well as all of their dental work. I can’t thank Dr. Tugbang
and her assistant Anne enough for all your care and attention. |
|
| ============================================================ | |
|
I have so much appreciation for you, Maria, you have no idea! You and Anne worked
as team smoothly sailing from one procedure to the next. At
times it seemed like you could read each other’s minds. Always
quick to respond to my requests, I felt totally supported. I
felt so safe, so relaxed, so comfortable, and so grateful to be
in your care! Truth is I was scared about the implant surgery.
Heck even some simple dental procedures frighten me in the past.
I had to work on myself to let go of the fear every time. Of
course it really helps if there’s no pain. And you also made
that possible today. I am thrilled the implants are in and I’m
imagining that the implants will heal perfectly. Thanks so much
for this amazing day, this amazing procedure, the amazing
support staff. |

I just wanted to
touch base and say, "Hello" from Manitoba and let you know your
efforts have been recognized by your dental compatriots and they
are impressed. You can bet Maria I bestowed your skill, talent
and expertise and that of your team. I spent 15 minutes just
talking about the how you and your team can conceive a vision
and coordinate your efforts into a finished project. You set the
bar pretty high Maria. I knew that from the first time I met
you. I can't thank you enough for your patience, skill,
consideration and gentle demeanor. The dentists here in SCDC
Manitoba know I won't settle for anything less than what you
have started! Both have reviewed the master-piece known as Tom's
new smile and have independently recognized and acknowledged,
unsolicited, the skill, expertise, and craftsmanship it took to
create such a work of art! I told them Maria is a dentist with
background in engineering and a Master of Arts degree! |
|
| ============================================================ | |
| Through Dr. Tugbang’s innovative,
relaxing and comfort-oriented techniques, I now have very
peaceful and positive dental experiences. Now, for the first time in 35+ years, I actually LIKE going to the dentist! --- Richard Zverina |
