Meet the Doctors
Meet Dr. Rita Kilislian
Dr. Kilislian received her DMD from Tufts university school of dental medicine located in Boston MA in 1995. Two years later she completed a specialist degree in endodontics. In 1997 Dr. Kilislian joined a large group of Specialists in Endodontics located in Toronto’s financial district as well as Yorkville.
Dr. Kilislian’s belief is that all patients have a right to specialized endodontic treatment regardless of their financial situation. In this regard she never denies patients treatment or an immediate appointment. Rather than have patients travel from other cities to see her in Toronto, she decided to open up Specialty Endodontics by Dr. Rita in Peterborough and North Toronto to make endodontic care accessible for her referring dentists and their patients.
Dr. Kilislian treats all patients including government assistance patients, patients with disabilities and patients requiring various forms of sedation. She is the clinical director of the practice and has multiple associates in her practices. Dr. Kilislian is available 24 hours a day to answer any patient concerns or dental emergency.
Dr. Kilislian lectures on advances in endodontic surgery to various members of the dental community and does accept referrals from other endodontists. Patients are free to self -refer in the event they feel they may benefit from endodontic treatment or an endodontic consultation.
Dr. Kilislians main interests are in research related to saving the otherwise unsalvageable tooth.
