Dr. Tahsin Anwar

DMD

"What matters to you matters to me. I’m here to listen first, then guide, support, and provide care that reflects your individual goals. Every decision is grounded in evidence-based dentistry and a shared commitment to outcomes that truly make a difference. I want every visit to feel personal, never rushed, and always focused on your long-term well-being."

General & Restorative Dentist at Norge Dental Center

Dr. Anwar didn’t grow up dreaming of dentistry. In fact, she comes from a community where dental visits only happened when something hurt. But everything changed during college, when she began volunteering at mobile clinics across the U.S. and abroad. There, she saw firsthand how dentistry could restore dignity, relieve pain, and change lives—especially for vulnerable communities. It was in those makeshift clinics that she found her calling.

As the first dentist in her family, Dr. Anwar brings humility, empathy, and a deep sense of purpose to her work. Her patients often say they feel truly heard, and they are. She prides herself not only on clinical excellence, but on being an empathetic listener who puts her patients' needs and values first. Whether it’s a complex restoration or a routine check-in, Dr. Anwar strives to build relationships rooted in trust and care.

A lifelong learner, she completed her 200-hour yoga teacher training right after dental school. Yoga has been a guiding force in her life for nearly a decade, helping her stay grounded, self-reflective, and present in every patient interaction.

When she’s not at the office, you’ll find her cooking bold, spicy Asian dishes, hiking with her husky, or planning her next travel adventure. Her favorite movie? Forrest Gump—a reminder that life’s path is full of surprises, and meaning is often found in unexpected places.

What can I say? The Hygienist Angelina is the best: attentive, caring, excellent experience, and I have a lot of confidence in her recommendations. Dr. Henley is excellent too. A real craftsman in reparing teeth.

Every person I have come into contact with at this office has been genuine and exceptionally accommodating. It is a surprisingly beautiful building on the inside and I really appreciated how thorough they were with each and every tooth.

I’ve been going to Dr. Johnston’s office for my care for many years! He and his staff maintain the highest levels of professionalism and service. They have always exceeded my expectations and gone the extra mile to take care of me and my family.

The kindness and compassion shown by every single staff member in this office is second to none. I have not met a single team member who did not genuinely care about their patients.

We moved here from Chesapeake, Va. My first visit was beyond exceptional. My hygienist was Lisa. She was very nice and comfortable to be with and answered all my questions. She was very gentle while cleaning my teeth.
