You don’t eat candy and sugary treats but yet every time you visit the dentist, you have a cavity and you just can’t figure out why!!

Foods containing carbohydrates turned into bacteria. The bacteria generates acid by- products which slowly create holes in the teeth – a cavity! If not treated, holes become larger and can destroy the whole tooth – leading to tooth loss. One of the most common causes of tooth decay are sugary drinks – hot and cold!

As we reflect upon 2020 and the many challenges the year has presented for everyone around the world, we can be thankful that our team at Maple Mews Dental & families have been healthy & safe!

As the second wave is upon us, our commitment to the health and safety of our patients at Maple Mews Dental continues to be top priority! Our team is committed to prescreening and screening every patient each and every visit, our team is screened daily, our waiting room is closed and appointment times are staggered to adhere to social distancing.

Don’t!  Avoiding regular dental visits can be very costly…. And not only financially!  Tooth loss in adults is very common – and it doesn’t have to be!

Maple Mews Dental has been seeing patients with many safety protocols and precautions in place since early June . COVID19 has changed the way we live, has changed the way we practice dentistry! As we continue to keep our patients as informed as possible, we provide information through newsletters, blogs, social media and instagram. We welcome your questions and encourage you to call the office 905-632-2442 or email us at appointments@fancy-amber-badger.50-6-168-69.cpanel.site !

In the dental office many dental procedures have the potential to create areosols and splatter. Aerosols are the tiny droplets or particles which remain suspended in the air during and after a procedure and are most commonly created from our dental equipment that requires air and water.

We have been seeing patients for dental treatment in office since early June. Some patients, like yourself may be nervous to visit the dentist during a pandemic, we understand and hope that you will be comforted by the many safety measures and protocols that we have in place for your health and safety. We are happy to share that many that have arrived nervous or anxious about a visit to the dentist during these times and have reported they were at ease once they arrived and were privy to our safety measures.
