About

My name is Dr. Allison Blatt, and I am a Toronto native. I graduated from York University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology in 1993. I was then fortunate to head South to the Bluegrass State, Kentucky, for my dental education at the University of Louisville. I graduated dental school in 1997, and I remained in Louisville for an additional year in order to complete an Advanced Education in General Dentistry Residency. I joined College Street Dentistry in August of 2015, while still working in my own family’s dental practice. From my first day of work at CSD, the entire staff treated me like family. It really was an easy transition for me, and it allowed me to advance my skills as a general dentist, both from a technical standpoint and from a treatment planning standpoint. Dentistry keeps me very interested. It is ever changing and the challenge is to keep up with it by reading, watching webinars and attending continuing education seminars. I have to admit that I really enjoy performing root canals for patients, and it is even more satisfying to me to hear the patient say, “Well, that was much more manageable than I expected it to be!” That is the best compliment a dentist could ever receive. On a more personal note, I married my wonderful husband, Neal, in 2002. We welcomed our son, Alexander, in 2008. Our Coton de Tulear dog, Sunny, then joined us in 2015. Together as a family, we love watching and attending sporting events, going to movies and taking Sunny to dog events and to the dog park.

Why should patients choose you as their provider instead of others in the area?

As an experienced dentist, I was able to attain further training in an Advanced General Dentistry residency program. This really helped me develop skills in all aspects of dentistry for children and adults which I've been able to use in my 18 years+ of experience! I love meeting new patients and helping them find the best way to achieve a healthy smile!

What are the top 3 treatments that you focus on?

I enjoy all aspects of dentistry but do enjoy performing root canals for patients, extractions and all types of cosmetic dentistry.

What are you proud of in your practice?

All my education, training and years of experience have helped me deliver the best care for all my patients!

Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?

I have to admit that I really enjoy performing root canals for patients, and it is even more satisfying to me to hear the patient say, “Well, that was much more manageable than I expected it to be!” That is the best compliment a dentist could ever receive.

    I went to College Street Dentistry, the staffs are super nice and Dr. Alison Blatt is the best dentist I've ever seen. She's super friendly and smart. I've had tooth pain for a year and visited three other dentists, but they couldn't find the cause because my tooth looked okay with X-rays. Dr. Alison was different. She listened and figured out what might be causing the pain. Also, she examined my teeth carefully and explained everything clearly. Not only is she great at her job, but Alison also creates a welcoming environment. I can't recommend Dr. Alison enough. If you need an amazing dentist who's friendly, smart, and really cares, go see Dr. Alison Blatt.

    They were able to book me in quickly for a dental filling that chipped off and were very accommodating. I felt relaxed and they made sure I was comfortable the whole time. I didn't feel they were pushy about any unnecessary procedures like some other dental clinics have been. They're an older, established practice and were very lovely and friendly. The hygienist was great and Dr. Blatt was maybe the nicest dentist I've ever met. Loved them and will be back :)

    I had an absolutely fantastic experience. Dr. Blatt could not have been more welcoming and professional. That friendliness and professionalism was displayed by every member of the staff, to the point where other patients struck me more as neighbours having a chat than people dealing with their medical professionals. I was thoroughly impressed by the clinic and have no hesitation in giving them my highest praise and recommendation.

    All the staff were so friendly and professional. The administrative staff made me feel comfortable and welcome and the hygienist was also really nice and did a wonderful job on my teeth (no pain at all!). Dr. Blatt was very nice and explained everything she was doing so I was never lost. Really great experience overall, would highly recommend, especially for people like me who are nervous about the dentist.

    Dr. Blatt is so incredibly friendly, engaging, flexible, and a great communicator - I've had difficulty in the past with rushed dentists who aren't able to explain well the advice they are giving me, and seem irritated by my wanting to understand what's happening my mouth. Dr. Blatt is the total opposite - so glad she is my dentist now! The hygenist (sorry that I've forgotten her name) who did my cleaning expressed some vaccine hesitancy, which made me a little nervous when her hands were in my mouth, but not a huge deal in the end - very happy with the change from my old dentist.

    Dr. Allison Blatt was very friendly and careful throughout the appointment. She made humorous commentary on the news, as well. She was quick and thorough and made sure to take her equipment out of my mouth when I spoke, and paid attention to my needs. I would love to have her as my dentist the next time I go!

    I experienced a very traumatic event at my previous dentist regarding my sensitivity, I made this issue clear to my hygienist Tina and dentist Allison. Both ladies were so kind and checked in with me regarding my comfort level the whole time. I have never felt safer and more comfortable in a dentists chair in my life. Would strongly recommend if you have any anxiety or fear of the dentist!

Everything was on time and it was an extremely professionally run office. A fantastic experience that is super easy for anyone that works in the area. Professional, courteous, and friendly staff made me feel like family… would highly recommend to anyone!

    She’s such a sweetheart! Every other dentist I’ve been to just looks at you for two minutes while the hygienist does all the cleaning/x rays. But Allison was there the whole time! It seemed like she genuinely cared for each patient and loved her job. She was great!
