Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
How do I switch to Yonge Forest Dental? Can you transfer my records from my previous dentist?
Your previous record is a valuable set of information we could use to further strengthen our diagnosis. Sounds like a hassle to move the record? No problem, once we send you the form to release the record from your previous office our staff will take care of it before your first appointment is ready!
What payment options are available?
We accept all credit cards, debit cards and e-transfer from the banks! Sometimes insurance companies take longer time to process your claim request and there may be a co-pay remaining to pay. Simply pick your payment of choice on the spot, or send us an email transfer and we can either print or email your receipts.
What if I need to cancel my appointment?
We understand emergencies or unfortunate circumstances arise where you can’t make your appointment. We’re sorry we missed you this time, just let us know 48 hours before the appointment and we’ll rebook you right away at your earliest convenience.

These installment options aim to alleviate financial pressure, ensuring that individuals can receive the dental care they need without undue strain on their wallets.

We got TV on the ceiling so that our young patients can enjoy their favorite TV shows without having to be so anxious through the appointment! Additionally, we recognize and celebrate the bravery of our young patients, rewarding them with special treats for their courage during their dental visits.

Is there parking available at your clinic?
At our dental office, accessibility and convenience are paramount considerations for our patients. We are pleased to offer ample free parking space available at the condo parking lot situated directly behind our building, ensuring hassle-free visits. While visitor parking requires signing in, we take care of this process on behalf of our patients. All we need is their license plate number and the parking lot number in which they are parked. This ensures a smooth and efficient parking experience.
Do you see patients for dental emergencies on the same day?
We set aside time in our daily schedule for urgent concerns and offer same-day appointments when availability allows. If you are dealing with severe pain, swelling, or a knocked-out tooth, call our Barrie office as early in the day as you can so we can fit you in and advise you on what to do in the meantime.
