To help us provide the most accurate and efficient care, we encourage you to bring or transfer any recent dental X-Rays from your previous provider before your first appointment with us. Having access to your past imaging allows our team to better understand your dental history and minimize unnecessary repeat exposure. Please note that X-Rays older than 6 months may not accurately reflect your current oral health, as dental conditions can change over time. In some cases, we may need to take updated X-Rays to ensure we have the most current and complete picture of your dental needs. If you need assistance with transferring your records, feel free to contact our office – we’re happy to help make the process easy and seamless!
At Signature Smiles Dental Studio, we are proud to support accessible dental care by accepting the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP)!
Please note that while we follow the Ontario Dental Association (ODA) General Practitioner’s Fee Guide for our pricing, the CDCP uses a different fee guide set by the federal government. This means that there may be a difference between our standard fees and what the CDCP covers. Patients using the Canadian Dental Care Plan are responsible for paying the difference between the plan’s coverage and the clinic fee at the time of service. We’re happy to help you understand how the CDCP applies to your treatment plan.
Dental emergencies can happen when you least expect them, and prompt care is essential to prevent further complications. If you are experiencing a dental emergency (such as a severe toothache, broken tooth, lost filling or crown, or injury to your gums or mouth) contact our office immediately. Our skilled and compassionate dental team is here to help! We prioritize emergency cases and will schedule an appointment for you as soon as possible to relieve your pain and address the issue effectively!
