The removal of a tooth from its socket, performed when a tooth is severely decayed, infected, overcrowded, or impacted (commonly wisdom teeth). Can be simple or surgical depending on complexity.
Root Canal
A procedure to save an infected or severely decayed tooth. The inflamed pulp inside the tooth is removed and the canals are cleaned and sealed, which relieves the pain and stops further infection.
Periodontal Examination & Treatment in Danforth

A full-mouth periodontal examination is part of a comprehensive oral exam and is also recommended if signs of gum disease are observed during regular oral check-ups. 

Oral Examination in Danforth

Oral Cancer Examination in Danforth

Oral cancer can develop anywhere in your mouth. Common areas include the lips, cheeks, gums, tongue, the palate or throat.

I had a wisdom tooth extraction, and I can’t thank my dentist ( Dr. Sasan ) enough for how smoothly everything went. The tooth was in bad shape and difficult to remove, but Dr. Sasan was incredibly skilled, calm, and patient throughout the entire procedure. He made sure I was comfortable at every step and constantly checked to ensure I wasn’t feeling any pain. His gentle and reassuring approach made a stressful situation so much easier. I really appreciated how professional yet kind he was the whole time. If you’re nervous about dental procedure, I highly recommend this clinic and Dr.Sasan . You’ll be in very capable and caring hands! I also had a great experience with my dental hygienists ( Rose and also Hengameh) . They were both kind, calm, and very gentle, which made the whole appointments comfortable and stress-free. They were also highly professional and attentive. I truly appreciated their care.

I had an outstanding experience at this dental clinic. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel genuinely welcomed and cared for. Everyone is friendly, organized, and attentive, which immediately puts you at ease. I want to give special recognition to Mary Ann the dental hygienist—truly exceptional at what she does. She was gentle, thorough, and explained everything in a way that made me feel informed and comfortable. You can tell she takes pride in her work and genuinely cares about her patients’ well‑being. The dentists are equally impressive, especially Dr. Neruopama Pore, she is knowledgeable, patient, and highly skilled. She takes the time to walk you through your treatment options and ensure you understand every step. Their professionalism and compassion make every visit smooth and stress‑free. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a clinic that combines expertise with genuine care.

FAQs

It is recommended that you visit your dentist for a checkup and cleaning every six months. Regular visits help detect dental issues early, ensure prompt treatment, and maintain optimal oral health.

You can whiten your teeth through professional dental treatments such as in-office bleaching or take-home whitening kits provided by your dentist. Over-the-counter whitening products are also available but may not be as effective.

Yes, we accept most dental insurance plans. However, it’s best to check with our office to confirm if your specific plan is accepted and to understand the coverage details.

You should start taking your child to see the dentist by their first birthday or when their first tooth appears. Early visits help monitor dental development and establish good oral hygiene habits.

Prepare your child for visiting the dentist by discussing what to expect in a positive manner, reading dental-themed books, and scheduling a tour of the dental office. Familiarizing them with the environment can help reduce anxiety.

Children should have routine dental checkups every six months. Regular visits help track their dental development, prevent cavities, and instill good oral hygiene habits from an early age.

Cavities are caused by tooth decay resulting from plaque buildup on the teeth. Plaque produces acids that erode tooth enamel, especially when oral hygiene is poor, and sugar consumption is high.

Dental X-rays are important because they help in diagnosing problems not visible during a regular dental exam. They can reveal cavities, impacted teeth, bone loss, and other issues, ensuring comprehensive dental care.

Rinse your mouth with warm water and save any pieces you can find. A cold compress on the cheek helps with swelling. Call us so we can check the tooth before the damage gets worse.
