Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
When should I see an emergency dentist in Scarborough?
You should see an emergency dentist in Scarborough if you have severe tooth pain, bleeding that does not stop, facial swelling, or a broken or knocked-out tooth. These are signs of a dental emergency that needs care the same day to avoid further damage.
What counts as a dental emergency in Scarborough?
A dental emergency in Scarborough includes severe toothache, infection, abscess, dental trauma from accidents, and broken or chipped teeth. If pain is strong, sudden, or getting worse, it is best to contact an emergency dental clinic in Scarborough as soon as possible.
Can I get a same-day appointment with an emergency dentist in Scarborough?
Yes, we offer same-day emergency appointments at our Scarborough clinic. Calling early in the day improves your chances of being seen quickly. We accept walk-ins, but calling ahead is recommended to minimize wait time.
Is there a 24 hour emergency dentist near me in Scarborough?
Yes, Markham Gateway Dentistry provides 24-hour emergency dental care in Scarborough. Many people search for a “24 hour emergency dentist near me” when severe tooth pain, swelling, or a dental injury occurs at night. Our clinic is open 24 hours to help patients with urgent dental problems. If you need immediate assistance, contact our clinic and our team will guide you with the next steps for fast and effective emergency dental treatment.
What should I do before visiting an emergency dental clinic in Scarborough?
Before visiting an emergency dental clinic, rinse gently with warm salt water and use a cold compress for swelling. Avoid applying heat or medication directly to the gums. These steps can help temporarily, but professional care is still necessary.
What dental services are covered by Markham Gateway Dentistry?
At Markham Gateway Dentistry, we provide a full range of dental services in Scarborough. That includes general dentistry like check-ups, teeth cleaning, and fillings, plus restorative care such as crowns, bridges, and dental implants. We also offer cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening, pediatric dentistry for kids, and even oral cancer screening. Basically, if it’s about keeping your mouth healthy or improving your smile, we handle it here in our Scarborough dental clinic.
What is the average cost of dental treatment?
The cost of treatment depends on what you need. Basic services like cleanings start at about $100. More advanced care, like root canal treatment or dental crowns, will cost more. Because we use the Ontario dental fee guide, you can expect fair and clear pricing for your care. We also accept most insurance plans, including the Canadian Dental Care Plan, and offer payment plans for larger treatments.
Which is more painful, tooth extraction or root canal?
Most patients are surprised by this — a root canal is actually not as painful as people imagine. With modern tools and a local anesthetic, most describe it as feeling like getting a filling. A tooth extraction can cause more soreness afterward, since you’re healing from surgery. At Markham Gateway Dentistry, our team explains each step and makes both treatments as comfortable as possible.
