Dr. Vik Sharma is proud to serve the North Burnaby community he calls home. A dedicated and compassionate clinician, Dr. Sharma is committed to providing comprehensive dental care while emphasizing the important connection between oral health and overall wellness.
Dr. Sharma earned his Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from Simon Fraser University in 2008 before completing his Doctor of Dental Medicine degree at the University of British Columbia in 2013.
Following graduation, he spent five years practicing in a rural clinic in Yellowknife, where he provided essential dental services to patients without regular access to care.
During his time in Yellowknife, Dr. Sharma gained extensive experience treating medically compromised patients ranging in age from 3 to 90 in hospital settings. He also provided urgent dental care in correctional facilities. This unique clinical exposure gave him invaluable professional experience and life-changing insight into patient care across diverse populations.
After five years in Northern Canada, Dr. Sharma returned to North Burnaby to serve the community that raised him. He is passionate about forming meaningful patient relationships and remains committed to continuing education in pursuit of the latest advancements in dental technology and techniques.
Dr. Sharma has completed advanced training in gum surgery and bone grafting and successfully finished one of North America’s most rigorous 300-hour implant programs. He believes patient education is a cornerstone of effective treatment and finds it empowering to improve a patient’s life through simple, honest conversations about their health.
