There's been a lot happening in the world lately, and if you've missed some visits to your dentist, we're not surprised! The good news is that it's never too late to get your smile back on track, and your team at Emery Village Dental is here to help.

Taking the First Step in Your Dental Health

The first step to getting back to oral wellness is simply scheduling a teeth cleaning and exam with our team. Our dentists thoroughly examine your teeth and mouth, checking the health of your current restorations and your teeth and gums. The earlier we can detect any problems like broken-down restorations (fillings or crowns), tooth decay, or gum disease, the easier these problems are to treat.

Our dentists take a lot of time to get to know you, your health history, and your goals for your smile. This allows them to tailor a treatment plan that helps you reach your smile goals without disrupting your schedule or budget.

Our hygienist will clean your teeth, eliminating any excess plaque and bacteria you might've missed during your home care routine. Your hygienist is a great resource not only for dental cleanings but also if you have questions about your home care routine or products that can help you care for your smile.

Do You Feel Anxious About Visiting Your General Dentist in North York?

You are not alone! Many people feel fear or anxiety around dental appointments. At Emery Village Dental, we strive to make our patients feel welcome, safe, and comfortable in the dental chair, but we also understand that some patients need a little extra assistance with this. That's why we offer sedation dentistry, with different levels of relaxation to meet our patient's unique needs.

Talk with our team if you feel you might benefit from dental sedation. We're happy to review your options with you! 

Patients love our friendly, laid-back, judgment-free environment, and we would love to meet you. So take the next step towards getting your smile on track, and contact us at (437) 900-8266 to book your next dental appointment.
