General dentistry questions from Forestville
Have a question about your situation? Our team can help you plan a visit.
Is there a dental office in Forestville itself?
Our practice is located in Port Dover at 697 Norfolk County Highway 6, Unit 2. These pages are written to help Forestville residents plan care at that office, not to suggest a separate location in the hamlet.
What should I book if I have not seen a dentist in a while?
A new patient exam is usually the best place to start if there is no urgent problem. If you have pain, swelling or a broken tooth, describe it when you call so the team can discuss a more focused visit first.
Can several family members be seen on the same day?
Let the team know who needs care and what kind of appointments they are looking for. Back-to-back bookings may be possible depending on the schedule, which can help reduce the number of trips your family makes.
