Beyond the White Coat

Dr. Singh is a lifelong traveler who's explored 30+ countries across four continents — from the temples of South Asia and the souks of the Middle East to the canals of Europe and the coastlines of the Caribbean. He's wandered through Jordan's ancient city of Petra, stood before the pyramids of Egypt, trekked through the Himalayan kingdoms of Nepal and Bhutan, and watched the Northern Lights dance over Yellowknife.

Closer to home, Dr. Singh has visited every province in Canada and provided patient care in British Columbia, Alberta, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Ontario — and holds licensure in Yukon as well. Along the way, he's had the privilege of working alongside First Nations communities and a wide range of cultural and ethnic groups across the country, an experience that's shaped how he listens to and cares for every patient who sits in his chair.

That same curiosity — for places, people, and perspectives — is what drives his approach to orthodontics: always learning, always looking for a better way to do things. When he's not in the clinic, you'll find him planning the next trip, diving into geopolitics and world affairs, or working on content for his YouTube channel. He's a Tesla enthusiast and a self-described systems nerd who believes the best ideas, in dentistry and in life, often come from seeing how things are done differently elsewhere.

Dr. Singh's own journey took him through India, the UAE, and across Canada before he found home in Mississauga and founded Vivid Smiles — bringing 16 years of global clinical experience and a passport full of stories.
