About Johnathan Slate, DMD
John is one of M Street’s head dentists. He grew up surfing in Florida and has since taken up Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, golfing, and fishing, to add to his list of hobbies. Something most people don’t know about John is that he’s a huge nerd. Growing up, he wrote programs to hack his video games. He also enjoys traveling. His all-time favourite trips have been to Thailand, and just about anywhere in Mexico. John’s favourite breakfast food is his father’s homemade pancakes, covered in home-made maple syrup. On a Sunday off, you can find him in the garage working on his 1990 VW Westfalia camper van. If there is one thing that I care about in dentistry, it’s getting it right. The planning process for each of our patients is very important. Oftentimes, I’ll hear new patients say, ‘this is the most thorough exam I’ve ever had in my life.’ Our attention to detail and gathering multiple data points allows me and my team to provide the highest quality and most predictable treatment outcomes that dentistry today has to offer. From Day one all the way through the final treatment day, the quote that I live by is to ‘do the harder right, instead of the easier wrong.’ Dentistry is a precision profession, and striving for excellence gives me a great sense of joy and satisfaction that my patients benefit from.
