General Dentistry

Ever wondered what general dentistry includes? It is comprehensive oral health care for all ages, from your baby’s first tooth to your elder parents’ age-related concerns. As your dentist in Newmarket, we start with prevention to avoid dental issues from developing. If a problem like decay or gum disease has already developed, we offer restorative treatment to get your oral health back on track.

How Often Do I Need Dental Checkups?

Our dentists typically recommend checkups twice a year (every six months) for most people; however, the frequency depends on your individual needs. If your smile is exceptionally healthy with no history of cavities or gum disease, annual visits may be sufficient. Those managing active gum disease may need to see us three to four times annually.

Smilehaus Newmarket—Your New Dental Home

At Smilehaus Newmarket, we make comprehensive care convenient with appointments available six days a week, including evenings and Saturdays. Our four experienced dentists collaborate to deliver consistent, expert care to patients of all ages.
Dental Prevention
Prevention is always our first priority. Regular exams allow us to catch issues like cavities and gum disease in their earliest stages. We use digital x-rays and intraoral cameras to monitor your oral health over time, identifying problems before they become painful or costly.
Advanced Technology
Our dentists use CBCT cone beam imaging, digital x-rays, and AI-integrated diagnostic systems for the most comprehensive view of your oral health. This technology enhances our ability to detect issues early and allows us to show you exactly what we see on screen.
Personalized Care
Every patient has unique needs and concerns. Whether you're managing dental anxiety, working within a budget, or addressing deferred care, we develop treatment plans tailored to your situation. Our collaborative approach ensures consistent, evidence-based care regardless of which dentist you see.

Frequently Asked Questions

We receive many questions from new patients about what to expect during their first appointment. These are the most common concerns we address:

Will I See the Dentist or Hygienist First?

Your first appointment at Smilehaus Newmarket typically lasts 60-90 minutes and includes a comprehensive exam, digital x-rays, and usually a professional cleaning.

You'll start with our hygienist, who will review your medical and dental history, take necessary x-rays, and often perform your cleaning. Then your dentist will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and bite.

What If You Find Problems?

If we discover issues like cavities or gum disease, we'll show you using our digital imaging technology and explain your treatment options clearly. We'll discuss the timeline, costs, and answer all your questions before recommending any treatment.

Will You Lecture Me About My Dental Habits?

Never. We're here to help, not judge. Whether you haven't visited a dentist in years or you're dealing with dental anxiety, we'll work with you to develop a plan that fits your needs and comfort level.

What Should I Bring to My First Appointment?

Bring your insurance card (if applicable), a list of any medications you take, and any questions or concerns you'd like to discuss. We'll handle the rest.

Call Smilehaus Newmarket at (647) 927-6912 to schedule your first visit. We serve patients throughout Newmarket, East Gwillimbury, Aurora, and surrounding Toronto communities.

General Dentistry Technology

Digital X-Rays

Instead of using traditional film, digital x-rays use electronic sensors to capture detailed images of your teeth, roots, and bone structure. They emit up to 90% less radiation than conventional x-rays, while providing instant, high-resolution images that can be enhanced and shared with you on screen.

We use digital x-rays for diagnosing cavities, evaluating gum disease, planning implants, and monitoring oral health changes over time. You'll spend less time in the chair and leave with a clearer understanding of your dental health.

AI Dentistry Technology

Our AI-integrated diagnostic system analyzes your digital x-rays in real-time, using advanced algorithms to detect and highlight areas of concern such as cavities, infections, bone loss, and gum disease.

The system colour-codes potential issues directly on your x-ray, making it easy for you to see exactly what we're seeing and understand your treatment needs. This technology ensures consistent, thorough diagnoses across all our dentists, helping us catch problems early when they're easiest and least costly to treat.
