- Official Dentist of the Toronto Maple Leafs!
These answers explain how Pickering Square Dental generally approaches appointments and care. Your dentist may recommend something different after reviewing your mouth, health history, symptoms, diagnostic information, and priorities.
Yes, Pickering Square Dental is welcoming new patients. Call (905) 420-1777 to confirm current availability and describe the type of visit you need. You can review the patient information hub and new patient form before your appointment.
Bring identification, a current medication and allergy list, relevant health information, and private-benefit or CDCP member details. Ask the office if recent records or X-rays should be transferred. Tell the office about pain, anxiety, accessibility needs, or a support person when scheduling.
The appropriate interval depends on oral health, age, cavity and gum risk, existing treatment, medications, and other factors. One family member may need a different schedule from another. The dentist will recommend an interval after assessment rather than assuming every person needs the same timetable.
The office can look for times that make care easier to coordinate, but availability varies. Tell the team who needs to be seen, the type of visit, and whether anyone has an urgent concern.
The Canadian Dental Association recommends an assessment within six months after the first tooth appears or by one year of age. An early visit helps a parent or caregiver discuss home care, feeding and drinking habits, fluoride, development, and individual cavity risk before a problem starts.
Some primary teeth remain for years. They support chewing, speech, appearance, and space for permanent teeth. Whether a tooth needs a filling, another treatment, monitoring, or removal depends on the decay, symptoms, expected time remaining, and the child's overall situation.
Use simple, neutral language and avoid promising that nothing will hurt. Let the office know what your child finds difficult and what has helped before. A short, low-pressure introduction may be useful for some children, while pain or infection may require a different plan.
We prioritize urgent concerns and offer the earliest suitable appointment available, but a particular time cannot be guaranteed. Call the office rather than waiting for an email. Difficulty breathing or swallowing, rapidly spreading swelling, heavy facial trauma, or uncontrolled bleeding can require emergency medical care.
Significant or worsening pain, swelling, a knocked-out or broken tooth, uncontrolled bleeding, trauma, or signs of infection deserve timely advice. Visit the emergency dental care page for temporary steps and call (905) 420-1777.
It may be possible to replace a crown because of appearance, fit, decay, fracture, gum changes, or another concern. The dentist examines the tooth, margin, bite, surrounding gum, root, and existing material before recommending replacement. A new crown can be shade-matched, but an identical or permanent cosmetic result cannot be guaranteed.
Periodontal disease affects the gums and other structures supporting the teeth. Warning signs can include bleeding, swelling, recession, persistent bad breath, shifting, or looseness, although it can also progress with few noticeable symptoms. An assessment can include gum measurements and X-rays. Read about periodontal care.
Tell us when scheduling. Clear explanations, an agreed stop signal, breaks, shorter visits, local anaesthetic, and other comfort measures can help. Some patients can also be assessed for sedation dentistry; suitability depends on health, medications, procedure, intended sedation level, and transportation.
For planned care, the office can provide a treatment plan and explain the fee information available. Benefit estimates and preauthorizations are not guarantees of payment. Ask about expected patient portions and payment arrangements before treatment begins.
Pickering Square Dental currently accepts CDCP patients, subject to active coverage and the office's current billing process. Call before treatment and review our Canadian Dental Care Plan page for eligibility, coverage, co-payment, and preauthorization cautions.
No. A benefit plan determines what it may contribute under a contract; the dentist recommends care based on clinical findings. You decide whether to proceed after discussing the diagnosis, options, risks, benefits, alternatives, timing, and cost.
