We are SO excited to share that Connie has officially joined our team! 🦷✨

Many of you already know and love her, and we couldn’t be happier to welcome such an amazing dental hygienist into our office. Her experience, kindness, and the way she makes patients feel comfortable is truly something special.

And of course, we couldn’t talk about this without highlighting how lucky we already are to have Vicky! Her dedication, gentle care, and ability to make every visit a positive experience is something our patients rave about every day.

And now… we’ve got the ultimate dynamic duo — Connie and Vicky! 🙌 We are beyond excited to have them working together and can’t wait for you to see them in action.

If something doesn’t feel right with your tooth, don’t wait. It’s always better to have it checked before the break.

Today we honour the men and women from Northern Ontario who served with courage and conviction—those who left their homes, families, and communities to answer the call of duty.

From the mining towns to the shores of Lake Huron, the legacy of their service runs deep through our region’s history and spirit.

We pause to remember, with gratitude and respect.
Lest we forget.

If you have dental insurance, now is the time to check your coverage before it resets at the end of the year. Most plans do not roll over, so if you have been putting off your cleaning, check-up, or treatment, this is your friendly reminder to book soon.

The team at Blind River Dental is here to help you make the most of your coverage and keep your smile healthy heading into the new year.

📞 Call (705) 356-9868 to schedule your appointment today.
