  • Dental Sealants
  • Dental Fillings
  • Root Canal Therapy
  • Tooth Extractions

Not every patient requires the same services. Your dentist will consider your age, oral health, medical history, symptoms, and treatment needs before making recommendations.

Why Choose Finch East Dental Care?

When choosing a general dentist in Scarborough, families may consider experience, appointment availability, insurance support, and communication. Our patient-centered team explains examination findings and treatment options so you can take part in decisions about your care.

We accept eligible patients through the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP). Direct insurance billing is also available. Coverage depends on your plan or program, and you may be responsible for uncovered fees.

Our three general dentists provide care for patients at different stages of life. Early-morning availability and Saturday appointments from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. can make it easier to arrange visits around school, work, and family commitments.

What to Expect at Your Visit

Your appointment may begin with a review of your health history, current medications, previous dental treatment, and any concerns you would like to discuss. This information helps your dental team understand factors that may affect your oral health or treatment.

Based on your needs, your visit may include an examination, professional cleaning, and X-rays when clinically indicated. Your dentist may evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and existing restorations.

After the assessment, your dentist will explain the findings, answer your questions, and discuss any recommended treatment. You will have an opportunity to review available options before deciding how to proceed. Future visit frequency will depend on your oral health, risk factors, and treatment history.

Insurance and Financing

Dental coverage and out-of-pocket costs vary by plan and treatment. Visit our Insurance and Financing page to learn about accepted plans, direct billing, federal dental programs, payment methods, and financing options.

Our team can help you understand estimates and submit eligible claims. However, your insurer or program administrator determines final eligibility, reimbursement, and coverage.
