Some concerns need a different kind of conversation.
A clicking jaw, a denture that has started to rock, loud snoring, sensitivity that will not settle or worry about getting through an appointment can all affect your comfort and confidence. These services are for the questions that sit outside routine checkups. Long Point residents and seasonal visitors can browse them here to understand what each involves before calling.
Assessment comes first at our Port Dover office. When a concern also needs medical input, such as a sleep study or specialist care, the team will explain that step rather than assume a dental appliance is the whole answer.

Additional services questions
Have a question about your situation? Our team can help you plan a visit.
Can the dentist diagnose sleep apnea?
No. Sleep apnea is diagnosed through a sleep study arranged by a physician. The dentist may notice signs and suggest medical assessment, then discuss an oral appliance if it is recommended.
My denture is loose. Do I need a new one?
Not always. A reline may restore the fit if the denture is otherwise in good condition. The dentist will examine it and your gums before suggesting a repair, reline or replacement.
Can appointments be adapted for mobility or anxiety?
Often, yes. Describe your needs when booking so the team can explain what can be arranged, such as longer appointments, breaks or comfort measures, for the specific visit you need.
