Dr. Vandervoort also practices the Safe Mercury Amalgam Removal Technique (SMART) when removing amalgam fillings and loves using our new Solea Laser whenever possible for anesthetic free fillings.
Hanas passion as a dentist is making her patients feel calm and comfortable in the dental chair while providing exceptional dental care.
