It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Dr. Sayed Mirbod, a highly respected periodontist at Park Lane Dental Specialist in Nova Scotia. Dr. Mirbod passed away on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, leaving behind colleagues, patients, friends, and family who will remember him not only for his professional excellence but also for his kindness, humility, and integrity.

Dr. Mirbod was widely admired throughout the dental community. Colleagues often described him as the “sweetest, most humble and decent man”—a professional who cared deeply about his patients and always went the extra mile to ensure they felt seen, heard, and valued. He approached dentistry not just as a science, but as a service rooted in compassion and respect. Through his referrals, collaborations, and presence at dental gatherings, he became a trusted friend and mentor to many.

His patients held him in the highest regard, not only for his clinical expertise but also for his gentle manner and ability to put people at ease. Many walked away from their appointments with more than just improved oral health—they left with a sense of comfort and reassurance that they had been cared for by someone who truly put their well-being first.

Outside of his work, Dr. Mirbod was known for his warmth and generosity in social settings. He built connections easily, often bringing people together and leaving a lasting impression of sincerity and respect. His absence will be felt deeply by all who were fortunate enough to know him, both within and beyond the dental profession.
