Do you have questions?
We have all the answers here!
We are not an alternative practice, we believe in science and evidence-based research. Having said that, we have a whole-body approach, which means we recognize the connection between oral health and overall health, how your mouth can affect your body and vice-versa.
We believe in using more biocompatible and less harmful materials, such as BPA-free resins, Xylitol, laser and Ozone. We are always updating and improving our protocols, based on the latest research and knowledge.
If you have dental coverage, please check your benefits to confirm how much will they cover - each contract is different. If you are not sure or don't know how to do that, in most cases we can help you find out.
We are a non-assignment office, meaning we collect full payment after the appointment, but we will submit the claim to the insurance company on your behalf, and you should receive your reimbursement in 2-3 business days by electronic transfer to your bank account, or by mail via cheque.
For major procedures (unless it's an emergency), insurance companies usually require a pre-determination to confirm your eligibility. We can request it before your appointment.
To have a proper and accurate oral health assessment, x-rays are needed for every patient. If you have recent images (less than a year), we will gladly accept them before your appointment - please request them to be transferred from your previous dental office. Sometimes it might take a few days for the request to be processed, we always recommend to do it at least one week before your appointment.
We use only digital x-ray machines, which are extremely safe, using less than 10% of the exposure necessary on traditional film x-ray machines. One dental x-ray is equivalent of the amount of exposure you naturally get staying outdoors for a few hours.
We use the same materials, and we are able to make highly cosmetic crowns in-house, which are virtually identical to your existing teeth.
The main material we use for molars is Zirconia, which is more durable than porcelain. For anteriors, we use both Zirconia and e-Max, which is very durable and has excellent aesthetics.
We love seeing kids and adults alike. Our team is prepared to make your child's visit a relaxed, and stress-free experience. We will never force or go beyond you child's limits - we understand that a traumatic dental experience has long lasting consequences - studies show that people with dental traumas are less careful with their dental health daily routine and see dentists less often.
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) causes bedwetting (nocturnal enuresis) by triggering physiological stress that increases urine production and forces the body to work harder to breathe, often affecting both children and adults. OSA disrupts sleep, releases atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), inhibits anti-diuretic hormone (ADH), and creates chest pressure, leading to higher urine output and involuntary urination.
Key Connections Between Bedwetting and OSA
• Hormonal Imbalance (Increased Urine Production): When breathing is obstructed, the heart works harder and releases a hormone-like protein (ANP) that signals the kidneys to produce more urine. Simultaneously, OSA disrupts the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH), which normally keeps urine production low at night.
• Pressure on the Heart: The physical struggle to breathe causes pressure changes in the chest, which can lead to increased urination (nocturia) and potential bedwetting.
• Stress Response: When oxygen levels drop, the brain triggers a stress response (releasing adrenaline) that can wake the sleeper but also lead to an inability to control the bladder.
• Persistent Bedwetting & Treatment: For children, treatment-resistant bedwetting is frequently tied to sleep-disordered breathing. Treating the OSA often resolves the bedwetting.
We usually require a scheduled appointment but if your case is an emergency, we will do our best to see you as soon as possible.
We work along some financing companies to make your treatment a reality. Financials should never be an obstacle for better oral and overall health.
We have one dedicated parking spot right in front of the office, and free general parking in the plaza, with accessible parking spots just a few meters away.
Yes, giraffes have 32 teeth, the same number as adult humans. However, they only have teeth on the bottom jaw in the front. Instead of upper front teeth, they have a thick, hardened "dental pad" to help them tear leaves from thorny acacia trees.

What languages do you speak?
Besides English and French, we speak Portuguese, Tagalog, Ilonggo, and Fookien. Still working on our Sanskrit though.
Can I get a same-day appointment?
We do our best to accommodate our patient's schedules, and we are always available for dental emergencies. New patients are always welcome.
