About the clinic
Some people come to us for dental care in Abbotsford after a long stretch without treatment. Others are sent by their dentist for something specific – like a full restoration or new implants. We get it. This kind of care takes time, and it can feel like a lot to take in.
360 Dental Specialists is tucked into the Highstreet Shopping Centre. It’s a quiet, easy-to-access space where we work with people who need more than just routine checkups. We take on the kind of dental challenges that don’t always have simple answers – things like major repairs, missing teeth, or rebuilding a smile from the ground up.
Each member of our dental team has worked with all kinds of patients, from those just starting their treatment journey to people figuring out their next step after years of discomfort or frustration. If you’re feeling nervous, that’s normal. If you’ve got questions, we’ll talk it through – no pressure, no fast talk. And if you’re feeling uneasy about treatment, we can look at sedation options together.
We keep a weekday schedule and don’t rush appointments. That way, there’s time to work things out properly. If you’re dealing with something more involved and just want clear next steps, we’re here.

Born in Parma, Italy, Dr. Ahmed Ballo has spent the last fifteen years, study, working, and travelling between continents. Dr. Ballo is a Board Certified Specialist in Prosthodontics and serves as a Clinical Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Dentistry at the University of British Columbia.
Dr. Ballo, a surgically trained prosthodontist, earned his specialist training, MSc and Diploma in Prosthodontics at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver.
He obtained his Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) degree in 2002, followed by one year of internship at Garyounis University. After several successful years in private practice, he moved to Finland to pursue further postgraduate education. He received a PhD degree as well as clinical training in implantology as a scholar of the International Team for Implantology (ITI) in 2008 at the University of Turku, Finland. He subsequently became a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Gothenburg in Sweden from 2008-2012.
In 2012, he moved to Vancouver and became a Clinical Assistant Professor at the UBC Faculty of Dentistry. In recognition of his excellent and contribution to UBC undergraduate dental students' education, he has received three consecutive teaching awards for the academic year 2014, 2015, and 2016, an exceptionally remarkable achievement given his short time at UBC.
Dr. Ballo is a fellow of the International Team for Implantology (ITI) and a member of the Canadian Dental Association, British Columbia Society of Prosthodontics, British Columbia Dental Association, and American College of Prosthodontist. Dr. Ballo is the director of the Vancouver Digital ITI Study Club.
A widely published and internationally respected clinician and lecturer, Dr. Ballo's main focus within clinical practice, teaching, and research is esthetic and implant dentistry as well as well as the implementation of cutting-edge digital technologies in complex implant oral rehabilitation.
Dr. Ballo has published more than 50 scientific papers, and book chapters, and authored a textbook in the field of implant dentistry and related research. His excellence has been recognized with multiple prestigious awards and honours, including Dr. Donald Brunette Award in Dentistry, Dr. S. Wah Leung Award, and European Biomaterials and Tissue Engineering Doctoral Award (EDA).
Dr. Ruby Bhullar completed his undergraduate studies in the Faculty of Science & the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences at the University of British Columbia. After only 3 years of undergraduate studies he was one of very few students to be accepted into the UBC Faculty of Dentistry and subsequently obtained his Doctorate of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree in 2007 to become a practicing & licensed dentist at only 23 years old.
In 2013 Dr. Bhullar received accreditation as an Associate Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (AFAAID). To this day implant dentistry and oral surgery continue to be practice areas of focus for Dr. Bhullar, having placed thousands of dental implants over his 20+ year career.
Dr. Bhullar has been an established Invisalign provider since 2008 having treated thousands of orthodontic patients with both braces and clear aligners. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Clear Aligners (FAACA), a credential given to very few dentists worldwide.
Dr. Bhullar has extensive experience in many forms of sedation, including Oral, Nitrous Oxide, IntraNasal, and IV Sedation. This allows him to perform longer, more intricate surgeries for patients with complex treatment needs and also helps him provide treatment for highly anxious patients in a more relaxed atmosphere who would otherwise be unable to undergo treatment.
Staying current with modern technology is one of the pillars of his clinical practice. Dr. Bhullar regularly employs lasers, CBCT scans, and 3D digital scanners in the quest for the ultimate patient outcomes. He enjoys and practices all aspects of general dentistry, but his areas of interest are IV Sedation, Oral Surgery, Dental Implantology, and Clear Aligner Orthodontics (Invisalign).
