About Us

Providing Optimum Family Dentistry

We feel that we have an obligation to provide every patient with a thorough examination at the initial visit. The examination consists of an oral cancer screening, examination of the teeth and gums, and necessary radiographs.

At that time, we shall explain our findings and discuss various treatment options available to you. It is our joint responsibility to see that excellent dentistry is properly cared for after completion.

Therefore, we see that each patient is personally trained in his/her own home care preventive program.

We Understand That Selecting an Office Can Be Difficult

Our team has designed this website to provide you with information about our office, and hopefully answer some of the questions you may have. We feel that the more you know about us, our methods of practice, and our policies, the more we can be of service.

We know that you will find your experience with us to be pleasant, and hope you will feel confident in recommending us to others. An increasing number of our new patients are referred by existing patients. This is most flattering, and we greatly appreciate it!

Financial Arrangements

To assist you in obtaining the oral health you and your family want and deserve, we have created a range of options that meet your needs.

We accept most insurance plans, cash, personal cheques, debit, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and DentOPlan Financial third parties. After electronically billing your insurance company, any differences are due on the day of service.

Get the Maximum Benefits From Your Insurance Company

Please contact us, and we would be happy to examine your financial situation and current coverage. Our team will support you to ensure you get the most from your health insurance.

We recommend looking into your dental plan beforehand, so you're aware of what kind of budget you have. Look into what your benefits cover, such as braces, and check to see if spouses and children are covered through your work or school dental benefits.

Additionally, DentOPLAN members can turn healthcare expenses into affordable payments. Consult with your local DentOPLAN representative to find out how much you can be approved for.

Sterilization Procedures

We would like to provide you with information on why your visit to our clinic is safe and why there is no chance of cross-infection between you and the previous patient.

Since our team is extremely concerned with sanitation standards, we use the most up-to-date infection control procedures to ensure the health and safety of our patients and staff.

We would also like to assure you that the sterilizing procedures used in our office are of the highest standards, and we are confident that no individual is at risk. Our clinic not only complies with the standards set by the Canadian Dental Association – but we exceed them.

We Assure the Following Procedures Are Conducted:

  • Handpieces - We autoclave both the fast and slow-speed handpieces after each patient.
  • Instruments - Instruments are taken from the operatory to the sterilization room where they are washed, scrubbed, ultrasonically cleaned, rinsed, and autoclaved. After each patient, all suction tips needles, sponges, and sharps are disposed of in a biological hazard container.
  • Countertops - Disinfectant sprays are used to eliminate bacteria and viruses from countertops.
  • Gloves - New gloves are used for every patient. When the dentist or assistant leaves the operatory, gloves are removed and discarded.
  • Needles - New needles are used for each patient. The syringe holding the needle is sterilized after each patient.
  • Saliva Ejectors and All Suction Devices - We dispose of suction tips after each patient, and all lines are flushed with disinfectant.
  • Water Lines - At the end of each day, the water lines are filled with a disinfectant to stop the bacterial growth within them.
  • Autoclave - We test our autoclave daily with a chemical strip, and a biological mail-in system test is used regularly.
