Dr. Omer Mallhi

In 2016, Dr. Mallhi moved to NL with his wife Sadia and two kids for a couple of years with the eventual plan of moving back to Ontario, but after spending 6 years, he feels he is from Gander Bay. A Newfie with a tan. At Paradise Dental, Dr. Mallhi values continuing education and staying current with the latest techniques to provide quality treatment, and he takes pride in treating his patients. His warm and friendly approach has a very calming effect, and when his charm isn't enough, he uses his training in oral and nitrous oxide sedation to provide additional care to patients who are nervous/anxious during dental treatments. He also loves doing root canal treatments and esthetic makeovers. He spends numerous hours each year - much more than the annual requirements - attending continuing education courses and seminars to hone his skills. When he is not working, he can be found travelling. He loves spending time with his wife Sadia and two kids Faiqa and Sajeel, but he also loves his PS5.
