Testimonials
Hunter MacFarlane
My daughter has been attending Dr Borrovay's Office for many years and while the procedure she underwent required constant monitoring, it never failed to impress me how much she enjoyed her visits, never offering any resistance to attending. I think that speaks volumes about Dr Borrovay and his staff, always professional always friendly... Hunter has always enjoyed her Christmas card from the staff... a nice touch. [...]

About our practice
Orthodontics is a dental specialty requiring additional years of training beyond general dentistry. It's the study of the growth and development, as well as the correction, of dental malocclusions in both children and adults. A malocclusion is a problem in the way the upper and lower teeth fit together in biting or chewing. The word malocclusion literally means "bad bite." We've proudly served our patients from our offices on Carling Avenue in Ottawa since 1977.

Dr. James Borovay, 'Dr B'Hello! I graduated from Medical College of Virginia School of Dentistry in 1969 and completed my specialty in orthodontics at Boston University in 1974. I arrived in Ottawa in 1977 with my wife Rena, who is a practicing psychologist. I have been practicing orthodontics in this great city since then. We have three daughters, Melissa, Lindsay, and Karen. |
