Questions? You’re in the right place.

Yes. Tell us before your appointment so we can talk about what helps you feel comfortable. We can explain the steps, agree on a pause signal and take your questions one at a time.

The Canadian Dental Association recommends an assessment by a dentist within six months of the first tooth appearing, or by age one. A dental hygiene visit can support healthy habits; it does not replace a dentist’s examination.

Scaling removes deposits that brushing cannot remove. Polishing is selected according to the surface and the type of stain. The approach should match your teeth, gum condition and restorations. Ask about sensitivity and any concerns before treatment.

Not necessarily. A dentist determines the need for dental X-rays using your history, current findings and risk factors. Ask about the reason for an image and whether recent images can be used. This website does not advertise on-site X-ray services.

Whitening works on natural teeth. It does not whiten crowns, veneers or fillings in the same way. Surface stain removal is a separate process, and its suitability depends on the restoration material.
