About

With extensive experience, Dr. Ledderhof is kind-hearted and caring, making sure his patients fully trust him and feel safe about his treatments.

Originally from Ontario, Dr. Ledderhof pursued dentistry to follow in his father’s footsteps. He fell in love with the surgical aspect of dentistry and discovered oral surgery. To Dr. Ledderhof, patient care is synonymous with trust. He feels honoured to gain the trust of his patients and, in return, provides exceptional care that aims to improve their oral and overall health. Dr. Ledderhof’s philosophy of care includes treating others the way they wish to be treated and practices with compassion, honesty, and kindness.

He finds it extremely rewarding to help others when they have a problem and are in pain. He wants his patients to know that he, along with the entire team at Atlantic Oral Surgery & Dental Implant Centre, always has the best interest of their patients at heart. Outside of work, Dr. Ledderhof loves outdoor activities, including skiing, hiking, and camping. He also enjoys spending time with friends and family and cooking delicious meals for them.
