We have great news: there is no need to avoid dental visits in Canada! At Maxwell Heights Dental, we will continue to go above and beyond to keep everyone safe. Everyone in the office gets temperature checks, Covid-19 screenings, masks, hand sanitizer, and antiseptic mouth rinses. We are also utilizing medical grade air purifiers and have limited aerosolized procedures to sealed rooms for increased safety. We are always accepting new patients, and are available to help you keep up with your oral health. Call us at 905 434-6222 to book your appointment today!

It’s official! Masks are now mandatory while in public enclosed spaces in Durham region. Come visit us at Maxwell Heights Dental and take home a reusable mask while our supplies last!

Update June 8, 2020: We are excited to announce that we are now open! As many of you have probably heard on the news, the Ontario government has announced that dental offices, amongst other medical providers, may reopen. The Ministry of Health has lifted restrictions placed back in March and provided guidelines to ensure the safety of patients and staff alike. ... Maxwell Heights Dental has always followed strict infection control standards, but we have updated our protocols to meet or exceed current recommendations from the Ministry of Health and the RCDSO. As such, you will notice that some things will be a little different: We will ask screening questions before booking your appointment, and again at the time of your appointment in written form. We will take and record your temperature with a non-contact thermometer. We will reschedule your appointment if you screen positive for COVID-19. Even if you screen negative, we may send you home if you appear unwell. We ask that you do not come to the office without an appointment please call ahead. You will be asked to bring and wear your own mask while in the office. You will be asked to come alone. Exceptions will be made for young children, the elderly, or anyone requiring assistance with their appointment. Please advise us ahead of time. (The person accompanying you to the appointment must also answer screening questions, have their temperature taken, as well as bring and wear their own mask.) You will be asked to wait outside our office or in your car. Please call us when you arrive. We will let you know when you can enter the office. You will be asked to use hand sanitizer on entry to our office. Our waiting room will look different. We will no longer offer pamphlets, magazines or children’s toys since those items are difficult to fully disinfect. You will notice certain treatment areas sealed off temporarily. Appointments will be spaced out to allow for physical distancing between patients as much as possible. This may mean less flexibility for scheduling your appointment, but it will also reduce the number of patients in the waiting room at any given time. You will notice team members wearing more protective gear depending on the procedure. This includes different masks, face shields, gowns, head coverings, etc. We will give you a mouth rinse to use for 1 minute immediately before your appointment. We will be disinfecting high touch surfaces more frequently (eg. Door knobs, taps, countertops, debit machine) We ask that you refrain from using our bathroom as much as possible. After your appointment if you experience any symptoms of COVID-19 within 14 days, please call our office and let us know. All of these changes are designed to create the safest environment for you, other patients, and our team members. We look forward to seeing you again! Sincerely, Your team at Maxwell Heights Dental

Patient update: Due to the continuously changing COVID-19 situation, dental offices have been advised to remain closed to routine dental services. As such, our office will remain closed until further notice. Rest assured, our team at Maxwell Heights Dental will still be here to address your emergency dental needs. If you or your family has a dental emergency that involves orofacial trauma, uncontrolled bleeding, infection and pain, please call our main number for more inf...ormation, and we will triage you over the phone. In the meantime, we at Maxwell Heights Dental continue to support our local communities by donating much needed personal protective equipment so that we can keep all our amazing healthcare workers on the frontlines safe! Stay safe everyone! We will get through this together! #donatePPE #PPEdrive #supporthealthcareworkers #stayhome #staysafe #wecandothis #flattenthecurve #togetherwerestronger #therona #covid19

To all our valued patients, With the recent events surrounding COVID-19 (coronavirus) and the recommendations from the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario, we have decided to suspend all non-essential dental services including preventative care (hygiene services) immediately for the safety of our patients, our team, and the community at large. In accordance with the Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario and Public Health Ontario, we will still be providing em...ergency dental services for our patients and the community. As always, all standards of care and personal protective equipment will be used and all sterilization procedures will continue to meet, and exceed, the standard of care as set forth by the Ministry of Health. Maxwell Heights Dental will implement altered hours of business to reflect the changes due to COVID-19. We hope to offer our complete dental services as quickly as possible, while placing the safety of our patients, staff and community first. I thank you for your understanding and co-operation in this manner, and wish for each and everyone of you to stay healthy, safe and happy. Emergencies will be by appointment only, please call us at (905) 434-6222. Sincerely, Dr. John Neil, Dr. Stephanie Shum, and Dr. Grace Yuen
