Meet Dr. Mark

Dr. Mark Hamanishi
Certified Specialist in Orthodontics
Dr. Mark grew up in Surrey and earned his undergraduate degree in Nutritional Sciences from UBC. He received his DMD from Boston University and completed his Orthodontic specialization at the University of Pittsburgh. After a 6-year adventure practicing in Calgary, AB, he moved back home to BC to continue serving families in his community.
For the past 5 years, Dr. Mark has focused his Orthodontic skillset on clear aligner therapy for all ages, treating hundreds of complex malocclusions each year using Invisalign®. He also started his own Invisalign® mentoring company, using his expertise to remotely guide general dentists in treating their own patients.
Outside the office, Dr. Mark balances out his nerdiness by playing golf (keyword – ‘trying’), running (he’s even run a marathon), and playing soccer. He has two rambunctious kiddos and is married to his equally nerdy high school sweetheart.
Dr. Mark believes in using the latest digital technology and can’t wait to reveal your new smile at your consultation using our 3D scanner and instant smile simulator. Super nerdy stuff, but that’s our orthodontist!
