APLUS Institute | Toronto Dental Hygiene School

The 18 months spent at APLUS were definitely the hardest months of my life but now that I have graduated as a Dental Hygienist. And it totally worth it. The teachers here are great, the program itself is full of practice and theory.

I was extremely impressed by the thorough exam and treatment given at the APLUS Institute. My student dentist did a complete series of dental x-rays and a very thorough cleaning with an ultrasonic cleaner as well as hand instruments. My student Joseph did a much better job than our private dentist. He really spent a lot of time with me. The costs at the clinic are much less than that of a private dentist but there is no sacrifice in quality of care. The students are closely supervised by experienced dentists so I was not worrying about student to mess up. It takes longer here to finish the appointment but it worth it.

I studied here in intake 28,i did lot of homework before I choose this college. Discussed with many friends and Google research finally joined here for diploma program. Firstly I want to say the program is not an easy one but needs lot of patience and hard work to complete it. We were hit by pandemic covid in first semester but still school supported in the best way they can. We had online lectures and in person clinical training. Overall we were able to finish the course in good way during crisis of covid. The management is helpful and understanding students and will support students always their best.but that means students has to do their part too. We had extra classes clinics what ever needed to make sure the students learn about things they needed before they graduate. Teachers were kind and nice throughout the program never felt any discrimination any stage. We had a nice program director Cathy whom we can approach any time for any issues and she always supports students and help students to pass on anything we need between students and management. She is such a wonderful lady who did her best to make sure we are on track and finish program on time. Clinic lead Christin Ryan she was always with students in clinical training and theory classes.Any time any one can approach her for help was like coolest of all instructors and wants all students of her to be successful in outside world and tried her best to make us relaxed and take the clinic and program less stressful.we learned lot things from her great experience she shares and made study more easier. I would like to thank Martha who was the energetic person who knows A to Z of clinical work. I always use to have hard time in learning different movements and techniques in instruments and just ask her anytime how to do it she will have a answer and solution for it.she know the perfect way and can solve any troubles we face in pre clinic while learning instrumentation.my clients used to tell me oh your instructor she has a strong hand the way your instructor hold or touch mouth they feel she knows everything of mouth.they used to trust this instructor and makes us also more confident.Another great instructor Parinaz she has unique way of teaching clinical skills and she was like known among our batch as perfect instructor.She tries her best to make us all learn things in perfect way. She may feel tough in the beginning but later you will know and see how good she is working with you to make you learn things in clinic. She has patience and helps you always in clinic to learn more about debridment skills. We had another instructor Roxane Ryan she was very kind and always there for all students in clinic and helped us with small small tricks to improve our clinical skills and she was very cool with students. Would like to thank another instructor Melody for teaching us in clinic. Lastly all teaching staff and non teaching staff who helped us to learn things and finish the course on time.The program is not an easy one we need lot of patience and hard work to complete it on time.if you are not hard working and thinks to get easy certificate stay away from this program. TANYA AND SIMON from management they always do their best to make sure students pass out with skills. School follow some rules and regulations to make sure all are treated equally and fairly so some people may not like it always and complain about school etc. There is no perfect school or place if you are ready to study and work hard this school is best for doing the course.I am really happy I joined here and passed course and now successful in my career.I am really thankful for the learning I did here now I am able to successfully work in real world clinics without any trouble. Always check the board exam pass percent from this school it will be always highest in the province they train you best to pass board exam in first attemptFinally this is just my perspective about what I done at this place and I will recommend this place for anyone who wants to become successful hygienist.Nidhin

This is the worst school in the entire world, I am not making this up. DON'T BE FOOLED by the fake google reviews that they have. They are EXTREMELY unprofessional not only to the students but the clients as well. They threatened the client and embarrassed the student in front of the client. I've gotten a chance to talk to one of the students there and they are miserable. They have no interest in the student's growth, I would never ever get my teeth cleaned there again! This is by far the worst experience ever...I feel so bad for the students, their teachers are BULLIES which makes their learning experience bad. They throw papers on the ground and make students pick it up, they bully students with speech problems/disabilities. IF I could give zero stars, I would.

I liked this place. Professors that are supervising the students are TOP NOTCH and very demanding for excellence. So don't worry about the quality. All the dental equipment and technology is state of the art too. My teeth look REALLY, REALLY GOOD now. The only trouble is parking – it was full and I spent good 30 mins looking for a spot. I would suggest leave your car at Finch station and take a subway here.

Hearing from patients that they love the results of my work is an unbeatable compliment :) A Plus dental school provided me with excellent training to start my dental hygienist career in Toronto.

Best years of my life. At Every turn there is a learning opportunity and great education. Had the pleasure of being the pupil and the teacher with some of the loveliest and most honest people I have ever laid my eyes and mind upon. All the best and if ever had to do it all over again, I still would pick that same year and that same place. Love you all

I spent a year and a half studying at A Plus, I have to say it was not an easy course but it was completely worth it. The professors are all very caring and have an immense amount of experience to speak on. This course was definitely worthwhile, and I now feel prepared for my first job as a dental hygienist.

The professors take their time to answer every question asked with a detailed response, and always ensure students are understanding the content. I appreciate the commitment my professors showed throughout the program.

Had nothing but fantastic service here for my mom who needed dental cleaning. Our student dentist Kelly is awesome. She is terrific and I can tell as I wait in the lobby, these student dentist all care about their patients. Genuine caring professionals. The bedside manner from most if not all students here has been a wonderful experience.
