Dr. Maxime Retailleau, DMD

Originally from Vendée, France – not far from the famous Puy du Fou theme park, where he also worked as an actor and falconer – Dr. Maxime Retailleau combines creativity, curiosity, and rigor in his dental practice.

A graduate of the dental school in Nantes, he began his career on Réunion Island, where he enjoyed the sun, beaches, hiking, volcanoes, scuba diving, and whale watching. He then practiced for a year in Corsica, a gentle readjustment to the cooler climate before embarking on a new adventure.

A passionate traveler, Dr. Retailleau is now discovering North America for the first time (outside of the Caribbean) and is excited to explore new cultures and professional approaches.

He describes his arrival here as “a dream come true”: he has found a supportive team and a clinic that embodies the modern and collaborative vision of dentistry he had long hoped for. While he’s a little intimidated by Quebec winters, he says he’s eager to experience them.

Outside of dentistry, he has a particular fondness for animals and jokingly confides that his cat, currently staying with his mother, might soon be getting his squirrel-hunting work permit.
