With the recent surrounding COVID-19 (coronoavirus) and the recommendation of both the Royal College of Dental Surgeons (RCDSO) and the College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario (CDHO), we have decided to suspend all non-essential dental services including preventative care (hygiene services) immediately for the safety of our patients, our team and the community at large.
in accordance with the RCDSO and Public Health, we will still providing emergency dental for patients and the community. As always, all standards of care and personal protective equipment will be used and all sterilization procedures will continue to be meet the Ministry of Health standard of care.
As we will have limited staff at our clinic, we ask for you to email us at [email protected] regarding any essential dental emergency.
We hope to offer our complete dental services as of the first week of April. However, this timeline may be modified as per recommendations of the college. We will continue to place safety of our patients, staff and community first and foremost.
We thank you for your understanding and co-operation in this matter and wish each and every one of you to stay healthy and happy.

Most of us realize that diet and exercise play an important part in keeping us healthy. But did you know that a healthy mouth is also an important part of a healthy body?

Poor oral health can affect a person's quality of life. Oral pain, missing teeth or oral infections can influence the way a person speaks, eats and socializes. These oral health problems can reduce a person's quality of life by affecting their physical, mental and social well-being.

Oral disease, like any other disease, needs to be treated. A chronic infection, including one in the mouth, is a serious problem that should not be ignored. Yet bleeding or tender gums are often overlooked.

Research has shown there is an association between oral disease and other health problems such as diabetes, heart disease and stroke, respiratory illness in older adults, as well as pre-term and low-birth-weight babies. Although researchers are just beginning to understand this relationship, evidence shows that oral disease can aggravate other health problems and that keeping a healthy mouth is an important part of leading a healthy life.

A composite filling is a tooth-colored plastic and glass mixture used to restore decayed teeth. Composites are also used for cosmetic improvements of the smile by changing the color of the teeth or reshaping disfigured teeth.

What is the cost?

Prices vary, but composites can cost up to two times the price of a silver filling. Most dental insurance plans cover the cost of the composite up to the price of a silver filling, with the patient paying the difference. As composites continue to improve, insurance companies are more likely to increase their coverage of composites.

What are the advantages of composites?

Aesthetics are the main advantage of composites, since dentists can blend shades to create a color nearly identical to that of the actual tooth. Composites bond to the tooth to support the remaining tooth structure, which helps to prevent breakage and insulate the tooth from excessive temperature changes.

What are the disadvantages?

After receiving a composite, a patient may experience postoperative sensitivity. Also, the shade of the composite can change slightly if the patient drinks tea, coffee or other staining foods. The dentist can put a clear plastic coating over the composite to prevent the color from changing if a patient is particularly concerned about tooth color. Composites tend to wear out sooner than silver fillings in larger cavities, although they hold up as well in small cavities.

Most experts recommend a dental check-up every 6 months -- more often if you have problems like gum disease. During a routine exam, your dentist or dental hygienist removes plaque build-up that you can’t brush or floss away and look for signs of decay. A regular dental exam also spots:
Early signs of oral cancer
Wear and tear from tooth grinding
Signs of gum disease
Interactions with medications
