My name is Danish Khowaja, and like many people, I used to delay dental visits for as long as possible. Work was busy, life felt hectic, and every time I thought about booking an appointment, I found an excuse to postpone it. At first, it was just a little sensitivity in one tooth. Then it slowly turned into a constant ache that followed me through the day and even kept me awake at night.
One evening, after another sleepless night, I decided I could not ignore it anymore. Instead of asking around, I opened my phone and started searching on Google. I typed in dentists near me and began reading reviews carefully. That is when I found Infinite Smiles Dental.
They had great reviews. Patients kept talking about how gentle the dentists were, how welcoming the staff felt, and how comfortable the whole experience was. For the first time, booking a dental appointment did not feel terrifying. It felt hopeful.
The next morning, I called and scheduled a visit.
From the moment I stepped into the clinic, my anxiety started to fade. The space was bright, clean, and calming. It did not smell or feel clinical in an intimidating way. Instead, it felt warm and friendly. The receptionist greeted me with a smile and addressed me by my name, which instantly made me feel like more than just another patient.
While waiting, I noticed families chatting, kids laughing, and elderly patients looking completely relaxed. That small detail reassured me that I had chosen the right place.
Soon after, I met Dr. Manjot Singh, the dentist who would be treating me. Honestly, that is when my entire perception of dental visits changed.
Before even examining my teeth, he simply talked to me. He asked about my pain, my past dental experiences, and what exactly worried me. There was no rush and no judgment. He listened patiently, which made me feel respected and understood.
Here is what stood out most about how he treated me:
- He explained everything in simple language without complicated terms
- He showed me my dental images and walked me through the problem clearly
- He discussed treatment options and asked for my comfort level before starting
- He kept checking in during the procedure to make sure I was not in pain
- He maintained a calm and reassuring tone the entire time
That approach made a huge difference. I did not feel helpless in the chair. I felt involved and informed.
The treatment itself was far gentler than I expected. What I had imagined would be stressful turned out to be smooth and surprisingly comfortable. The assistant and Dr Manjot kept reassuring me, and before I knew it, the procedure was done.
When I sat up, I realised something amazing. The constant ache that had bothered me for weeks was gone.
But more than the physical relief, it was the emotional shift that stayed with me. For years, I associated dental clinics with fear. That day, I walked out feeling calm, grateful, and even confident. I actually smiled on my way out.
Later that evening, simple things felt better. Eating without discomfort. Sleeping peacefully. Smiling without hesitation. Those little changes meant everything.
Looking back, I wish I had not waited so long. Searching online and finding Infinite Smiles Dental turned out to be one of the best decisions I made for my health.
Now, whenever someone tells me they are scared of the dentist, I share my story. Because sometimes, all it takes is the right team and the right care to completely change how you feel.
For me, that place was Infinite Smiles Dental, and that experience truly gave me my smile back.
