About

Dr. Aadil Shamji was born and raised in Waterloo, Ontario. He attended Western University in London, Ontario where he graduated on the Dean’s list with an Honours Bachelor of Science degree. He was then accepted to the Boston University School of Dental Medicine, graduating Magna Cum Laude in 2013. After completing his dental degree, Aadil completed an optional 1-year residency program at Western University specializing in hospital based dentistry. Here, he received extensive experience in emergency treatment, caring for the medically compromised and those with special needs, as well as the use of sedation. He holds a certificate in Advanced Cardiac Life Support, is a member of the Ontario Dental Association, the Registered College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario, the Waterloo-Wellington Dental Society as well as the Toronto Crown and Bridge Study Club to keep up to date with the newest techniques and technology. Aadil married in 2013 to his beautiful wife who he met while attending Western University in 2005. In 2017 they welcomed a baby boy into their family and they could not be happier! When he is not at the office or at home with his family, you can be sure he is either playing or watching sports! His favourites include tennis, squash, golf and hockey. Playing baseball for the City of Waterloo growing up, he earned 2 Ontario Baseball Association Championships. Aside from sports, he has strong aspirations of travelling abroad to establish more sustainable dental care in underserved communities. While Aadil enjoys practicing a broad range of procedures, he particularly loves working with children. He discovered this passion for children while rotating at a pediatric dental facility in Fort Myers, Florida during his dental education. Aadil is excited to be working at Trillium and looks forward to brightening smiles in his hometown!

Didnt meet the dentist himself, just went in for cleaning. Nothing overly special that would make it a great visit but overall decent.. very comfy chairs and a TV to keep you occupied.

Boyan Z. Checkmark Verified Patient

Dr Shamji and his team were very professional. I didn't have to wait for more than a minute until my appointment. The checkup and teeth cleaning service were fantastic. When I did my teeth cleaning from my last dentist, I had to wait half an hour to an hour and my gums usually hurt after. That did not happen with Dr. Shamji. After Dr. Shamji inquired about my teeth cleaning habit, he recommended me to come in every 6 months. I really appreciate him for that, especially when others would just recommend you to come as often as you can. But he understood my situation perfectly.

Only saw the hygienist Jack and he was nice. Did a great job. Only trouble is they couldn't figure out how to link my insurance provider because their system is new and my insurance is from BC. Will go again.

Christian H. Checkmark Verified Patient

I came in without seeing a dentist for a bit (I had moved to this area from NS and never got around to making it a priority). I was pretty nervous going in but the staff was very welcoming and made me feel very comfortable. I appreciated that I could see my file/X-rays on the monitor in front of me when I was sitting in the chair. 1010 would recommend.
