If it’s been a while since your last dental visit, you’re not alone, and you won’t be judged here. Many patients who come to us through the Canadian Dental Care Plan haven’t had coverage in years. Our team’s goal is simply to help you feel at ease and get back to good oral health at a pace that works for you.
What to expect on your first visit:
- A gentle assessment and a conversation – not a lecture
- A plain-language explanation of what’s going on
- A treatment plan we build together, on your timeline
For patients who feel anxious about treatment, we also offer sedation options that may help you stay relaxed and comfortable during your appointment. Your dentist can discuss which options are appropriate for you.
