COVID-19 Update
Please be aware we are no longer open for walk-in emergencies. All office visits must be arranged and screened prior to attending the clinic.
We are admitting people for scheduled appointments only. If you have a telephone and/or email, contact us in this method as opposed to in-person.
If you have a dental emergency and are experiencing severe bleeding, swelling or pain you must contact us with the following information: full name, telephone number (if applicable), email address (if applicable), date of birth, Care Card number (PHN), dental insurance details and a brief description of your dental emergency. An on-call dentist will contact you at their earliest convenience to discuss your matter in more detail. Please adjust your telephone settings to allow for unknown callers. Also, please note that we do not check our messages on weekends or statutory holidays.
Clients with previously booked appointments: please await our call or email/call us to make
arrangements.
New clients or patients not previously scheduled: due to occupancy restrictions and the many
extra steps necessary to prevent the transmission of COVID-19, our priorities are dental emergencies and the rescheduling of overdue appointments of our existing clients. Please be aware that we are mandated to serve the DTES and will only treat clients that reside within the community. Wait times may be longer than usual for elective treatment.
