John Bjornson, DMD
 Dr. John Bjornson also known as “Dr. John” graduated
from The University of British Columbia’s Faculty of Dentistry in
1996. The initial years of his practice were focused on the
provision of emergency dental services in the community of Greater
Victoria. Dedicated to a course of continued study he grew to
perfect his restorative dental expertise and chose to focus on the
establishment of his current family practice. Dr. John and his team
are committed to the provision of premier care incorporating every
aspect of contemporary dental technology.
Personally from Dr. John:
Dentistry historically has been based on a “repair model”,
replacing fillings, filling holes or replacing missing teeth.
The goal of my relationship with the patients in our practice is to
enable them to benefit from a level of oral heath that will rely as
minimally as possible on the “repair model” of care.
My contemporary practice philosophy is based on a
“heath model” of care. This model is designed to predict
disease before it even happens or is expressed, thereby ensuring
the continuity of your oral health throughout your
lifetime.
Everyone brings with them a unique set of variables that
contribute to their level of susceptibility to oral disease. We
know now through current medical research that disease processes in
the mouth have a significant relationship to several very important
systems in the rest of the body. For example, the health of
your gum tissues also referred to as “periodontal tissues” have
been proven to be correlated with your risk of heart disease,
stroke, and even pancreatic cancer. When visiting my
practice patients have the technology available to them that
enables the proactive evaluation of each individual’s risk for
dental disease with the goal that intervention can be introduced
before serious complications are allowed to occur.
On a much more personal note, being a Dentist is what I
dreamed of accomplishing my entire life. It is the special
relationships that I have with my team members and patients that
make this profession so endearing and powerful to me. The best
rewards come when our patients, because they are happy and
satisfied with our practice, start bringing their loved ones,
family, friends to our Practice - the greatest form of flattery is
a referral. The desired cosmetic results, pain relief, and the
comfort they feel when visiting make our patients happy, and that
makes me happy. When I see our patients leave our office with
a healthy smile, it makes my heart sing the whole day. I am so
thankful that I get to do what I do each and every day. It is a
privilege like no other. For this reason, I will cherish this
profession and all that it has given me for the rest of my
life.
I hope that this is a clear indication of my commitment to
ensuring that our actions are guided at all times by your best
interests.
We look forward to seeing you in our practice.
