About

Hi, I’m Dr. Basel Zbib and I have more fillings than you do. Seriously though. Although I grew up in Canada, I didn’t step foot into a dental clinic until I was in my twenties. Unfortunately, this story isn’t all that uncommon. Back then, I didn’t know what dentists even do for a living. But four extractions, two root canals, fourteen fillings and a set of braces (and two or three cleanings) later, and I had a pretty decent idea. Dentists can transform lives. A little bit about me: I was raised in Ottawa, went to Hillcrest High School and Ottawa University for my Bachelor’s and Master’s in Human Kinetics, and then pursued dentistry at Schulich School of Medicine and Dentistry at Western University. I couldn’t wait to come back to Ottawa and start making a difference in my community. When I’m not at the clinic, I love spending time with my wife, Zaynab, and our energetic two-year-old son, Hadi. We’re always up for an adventure, whether it’s exploring new places or trying new things. I started this clinic with a dream to provide my patients with a reliable, consistent dental home. My goal is to offer ethical, compassionate, and quality dentistry to my community, and to be a dentist that truly transforms lives. I hope that I can have the opportunity to transform yours! Looking forward to meeting you, Dr. Basel Zbib, BSc, MSc, DDS

    East City Ottawa dental is incredibly clean with a lot of new technology. The front desk staff, hygienist, and Dr. Zbib are all incredibly kind. Making and rescheduling appointments is very easy, and so far I am really happy I chose this clinic.

    Dr Basel was very professional. He took the time to explain all the procedures and details. I am usually stressed but he continuously reinsured me throughout the whole session. This was a very good experience overall.

    The best experience I’ve had at a dental office. Doctor Basel Zbib and his staff was very welcoming and friendly. I for the first time had everything explained to me and got a treatment plan, even had options for payments offered.

    Very professional and yet friendly and approachable staff. The work was well done. I hadn't been to a dentist for several years due to problem with freezing. Dr. Zbib has been very considerate of this.

    Dr. Basel Zbib was very friendly and professional. Although there was a misunderstanding about scheduling an appointment, he was able to clear things up and have me seen. Dr. Basel Zbib paid lots of attention to detail and found things other dentists missed.

    From the moment you walk-in, it is a great atmosphere and beautifully designed. I was impressed by all the modern updates and hospitality. I was watching Netflix while they cleaned/polished my teeth. The staff are all very kind, patient but yet very fast and efficient. Dr. Zbib is great. It’s refreshing and comforting to have a dentist who takes his time to assess, listen and explain everything thoroughly, making you feel at ease. It was a great experience, thank you so much! I highly recommend this dental office, trust me, you won’t be disappointed!

    We brought our 18month old for her first appointment. It went great! I was so worried it would result in a lot of crying but Dr. Zbib was great with her and was able to check out her teeth and give us some pointers.

    Kind staff, knowledgeable dentist, genuine guidance. Dr Basel ran a full assessments and identified the areas of weaknesses, he took the time to explain the cause to effects relationships and suggested a thorough plan of care. I am a nurse, generally peaky on guidance and explanations and I have been satisfied by his care.
