General, Cosmetic, and Orthodontic Care Under One Roof – We opened in 2023 with one goal: to give Vancouver patients a clinic where everything is taken care of in one place. No referrals. No juggling multiple offices. Our team of experienced dentists and hygienists handles everything from routine cleanings to dental implants and specialist Invisalign treatment.
At Expo North Vancouver, you’re not rotating through strangers. Dr. Cornel Gabor, Dr. Mark Hamanishi, and Dr. Geoffrey Zieginson are a tight-knit team of highly trained, genuinely caring professionals who between them cover everything from routine care and complex implants to specialist-level orthodontics.
Dr. Cornel Gabor, General Dentist, graduated from McGill Dental School in 2010. He then moved to Vancouver to complete a one-year General Practice Residency at UBC, where he further trained in sedation, surgery, and provided care to underprivileged communities in BC and abroad.
Dr. Gabor strives for high quality work and is always trying to improve himself by staying current with new techniques and technologies. He attends numerous continuing education courses and focuses on dental extractions, implants and crown and bridge. He is an active member of the Canadian Association of Restorative Dentistry and Prosthodontics (CARDP).
He strives to provide patients with the highest standard of care and an overall heightened patient experience here at your North Vancouver dental clinic. When he is not at the office, Dr. Gabor enjoys playing tennis, going to the gym, fixing his boat and, above all, spending time with his daughter.
Dr. Mark Hamanishi – “The Aligner Guy”
Dr. Mark Hamanishi is a passionate orthodontist with more than 13 years of experience helping patients achieve healthy, confident smiles. Known by many as “The Aligner Guy,” Dr. Hamanishi has developed a reputation for his expertise in clear aligner therapy, including Invisalign®, and has treated thousands of patients ranging from children and teens to busy professionals seeking a discreet way to straighten their teeth.
While he loves the science and technology behind orthodontics, Dr. Hamanishi believes that creating great smiles is ultimately about people. His approach combines clinical excellence with genuine connection, ensuring every patient feels heard, understood, and comfortable throughout their smile journey. Whether treating a simple alignment concern or a more complex orthodontic case, his goal is to deliver exceptional results while making the experience enjoyable and stress-free.
As a recognized educator and speaker in the orthodontic community, Dr. Hamanishi is committed to staying at the forefront of modern orthodontics and digital treatment planning. He is particularly passionate about helping patients visualize their future smile and understand the possibilities available through today’s advanced treatment options.
When he’s not creating smiles, Dr. Hamanishi enjoys spending time with family and friends, pursuing personal growth, and finding new ways to bring energy, positivity, and a little fun to everything he does.
