Patients should provide for a minimum of 2 hours parking, especially those whose treatment will be completed that day. The parkade elevators take you directly to the 7th floor.

Upon Your Arrival
Upon arrival, you will be asked to provide any referral information that your dentist may have given you. This may include a referral note or dental film. You will be asked to fill out a brief medical questionnaire. This allows us to note any allergies, document any medications that you are taking and note any medical condition which may affect treatment. Patients taking Bisphosphonates (Fosamax) should be sure to indicate this in the medical history form. You will also be asked specific questions regarding your dental problem. Any information that you can provide is always helpful in making a diagnosis.
Please remember to bring any insurance information, forms or I.D. numbers with you. If treatment is to be completed that day, arrangements must be made for payment before treatment is performed. Payment can be made by cash, VISA, Mastercard, Debit Card and personal cheques. My staff will be pleased to assist you in any way they can.
