Nazanin Fallahi was born in Iran and after spending the early years of her childhood there, moved to Ottawa, Canada with her parents and sister. After completing her undergraduate studies in Neuroscience at Carleton University she moved to Toronto to attend the University of Toronto’s Dental school, where she was lucky enough to meet Sean despite having no plough experience. Eventually, she made her way back to her hometown of Ottawa to start a family. When not at work, Nazanin’s quest to find the perfect puppy has been successfully accomplished. What little time is left in her life is devoted to baking carb-free snacks while being kept entertained by her two sons Keon and Naveed and many wonderful friends from a safe distance in an open, outdoor space and family in Ottawa.

Following his relocation to Ottawa, Toronto native Dr. Sean Gorendar finally, after many years of disappointment and frustration, gave up his allegiance to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Following his relocation to Ottawa, Toronto native Dr. Sean Gorendar finally, after many years of disappointment and frustration, gave up his allegiance to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Prior to this trying time, he received a three year undergraduate degree in Psychology from York University and went on to receive his Doctor of Dental Surgery Degree from the University of Toronto where he also met his lovely wife, Nazanin. Sean is being slowly coerced into becoming a Sens fan and although he is losing faith, the habs are not an option.
Prior to covid-19, during the summer months he used to compete in triathlons, swimming and hiking with his two boys, flying airplanes and being totally humble. In the winter, most of his time is spent imagining he lives in the Bahamas. Lately, his hobbies include miss vickie‘s jalapeño chips and daily attempts at staying too legit 2 quit.

Hi, I’m MaryAnn, the face that has been here since the office opened in 2012. I guess you can say I’m the office coordinator. I do any number of things here so you may hear my voice from time to time or I may assist you with a restorative appointment. Otherwise, I’m kind of hidden in the back room doing behind the scenes important stuff!
I’m really happy to meet all the new and old patients here and I may pop out to say “hi” when you arrive .
When I’m not at work I love to get to the lake, snuggle with my Labradoodle, or just enjoy time with my family and friends over a good cup of coffee.

Sarah is an endangered species - a hygienist who is working full-time in the year 2022. Sarah is very awesome and amazing and is finally at our office right now!!! She’s the world’s greatest hygienist and we are super excited to have stolen her from, I mean welcomed her into our awesome dental clinic. We just have too many good things to say about her and they don’t fit in this little box.

April studied English at Carleton University, and then thought, dentistry as a follow up, well that just makes sense!
She graduated from the Northern Alberta Institute of Technology many years ago, and has been in the business ever since.
Parents to 5 grown children, she and her hubs recently have become empty nesters. They made the big move to Dunrobin Shores, where she feels the happiest on the water, walking her dogs or hanging with the chickens. Joining the team at Crystal Beach Dental, just after the pandemic has been a great fit. When work doesn’t feel like work, you're doing something right!

Sarah joined our clinic in May of 2022. She is the mask-covered, plexiglass barricaded welcoming face that greets you when you arrive.
Sarah tells us that she feels “privileged to work with Drs. Gorendar and Fallahi and a team that is so highly skilled and dedicated to their work. Our doctors really do ensure the team has a safe work environment as well as a great work/life balance; a crucial factor to running such a great practice.” I didn’t want to leave that out because it wasn’t me writing it - Sarah actually wrote that!
As for personal information which is one part interesting and one part maybe not anyone’s business…. Sarah is married and has 2 boys at home and a married adult daughter.
Sarah is a passionate hockey and baseball mom and loves her time at the trailer. She is currently writing her autobiography and spends her down-time listening to gospel and 70/80's music.
