For your first dental appointment, please have your new patient form filled out prior to coming in, if you are unable to do so then please arrive for your first appointment 10 minutes early. Please bring your dental insurance plan information and a list of any medications you are currently taking. If you would like your x-rays transferred from your previous dental office, please reach out to their office and have them emailed to: contact@asmiledentalclinic.ca
It is recommended that you should generally visit the dentist for an exam and cleaning every 6 months, although the frequency can vary based on your individual oral health needs, habits, and any underlying health conditions. Regular visits allow your dentist to detect problems like cavities, gum disease, and other issues early, preventing them from becoming more serious and expensive to treat.
Yes, our dental office treats patients of all ages, from infants and children to adults and seniors. While we handle a wide range of dental treatments here in our office, there are certain situations that require the expertise of a specialist. Just like in general medicine, dentistry has specialists who focus on specific areas, such as root canals (endodontists), gum health (periodontists), complex surgeries (oral surgeons), and pediatric care for children.
We accept most dental insurance plans. Our administrative team is happy to help you understand your benefits. If you’re unsure whether we work with your specific plan, feel free to call us – we’ll gladly verify your coverage and answer any questions you may have. Although we try and find out many details about your dental insurance coverage some dental insurance plans are private, which means they do not provide dental offices with detailed coverage benefit information. Any services not covered by your insurance plan will be the patient’s financial responsibility.
We understand dental anxiety is real – and we’re here to help. Our office takes a gentle, personalized approach to care. We listen to your concerns, explain procedures clearly, and never rush treatment. If you’re feeling nervous, let us know – we offer comfort options like extra time, headphones for tv’s, stress balls, or even oral sedation options when appropriate. Your comfort and trust are just as important to us as your dental health.
