Your Trusted Danforth Dentist

Welcoming New Patients at 759 Pape Ave, Toronto
Pape Dental Centre is located near Danforth Avenue, in the Riverdale neighbourhood of Toronto. Our sterilization and infection control procedures follow RCDSO requirements. We are also a Surgically Clean Air Facility, with air purification units in every operatory and in our waiting room. Pape Station on the Line 2 Bloor-Danforth subway is a short walk away. Church of the Holy Name and Withrow Park are also close by. Patients from across the neighbourhood can reach us on foot or by TTC. We provide dental care for patients of every age. Our dentists go over what the examination found and explain your options before treatment starts.

What Happens at Your First Visit

Your first appointment at Pape Dental Centre takes about an hour. This is the order it follows.

01
Paperwork

Complete the new patient form online before you come in, or arrive ten minutes early and fill it out at reception. Bring your insurance card or CDCP client number.

02
Health history

The dentist reviews your medical history and any medications you take, then asks what brought you in.

03
Examination

The dentist checks your teeth and gums for decay and gum disease. An oral cancer screening is part of the same exam.

04
X-rays

Digital X-rays are taken when we have none on file or your last set is more than a year old. We can also request records from your previous dental office.

05
Cleaning

The hygienist removes plaque and tartar above and below the gumline, then polishes. If your gums need treatment first, we book the cleaning for a separate visit.

06
Findings and cost

The dentist goes over what the exam found. Any recommended treatment comes with a written estimate and your insurance or CDCP portion before you book it.
