Do You Have a Hollywood North Smile?

The stars are coming to town!

The Toronto International Film Festival runs from September 4th to the 14th and features films from the likes of Robert Downey Jr., Kevin Costner, Reese Witherspoon, Denzel Washington and Tina Fey. Will you be checking out the latest hit movie? If cinema is not your thing, then how about flashing your pearly whites while laughing at the Just for Laughs 42 Festival.

Are You in Back to School Mode?

With kids heading back to school, September often feels like summer is over, for everyone. But there are many more months of nice, warm weather, so be sure to do all the things you would like to do before the temperature drops! Remember to take a moment every day to relax and breathe; while the immediate effect may not be obvious, stress and oral health are related. Stress contributes to grinding and clenching teeth, canker sores and even gum disease. We suggest starting your day off with a nutritious breakfast and thinking positively about the day ahead while you brush your teeth and floss. Not only will this give you a few minutes to yourself, it will help to ward off some of the effects of stress on your oral health.

Have a safe and healthy month,

How Would You Rate Your Smile?

Is it a perfect ten, a seven, or perhaps even lower?
Does your smile make you look younger, sexier, and smarter?

It can.

When you look at pictures do you ever wish your teeth were straighter, whiter, more aligned? Cosmetic dentistry allows dentists to perform porcelain veneer 'smile makeovers' which can address all of these issues. We are delighted to be able to offer this revolutionary technique to our patients.

What are Porcelain Veneers?

Porcelain veneers are custom, porcelain facings that are bonded to the front surfaces of your teeth to cover any imperfections and fix your smile. Veneers are very thin, only about 1 mm thick. That same thickness is "smoothed" off the natural tooth surface so when the veneer is bonded to the tooth, the tooth feels and looks the same thickness as before.

Uneven, discoloured, or even damaged teeth can be restored or repaired using this procedure. What makes Porcelain Veneers so special?

Not all veneers are created equal. Your face and smile are unique, as such, we will create a unique veneer to match the shape of your face and make the best smile for your mouth.
