For more than 35 years, Markham Smile Centre has been the dental clinic families in Raymerville, Markham Village, Unionville, and the surrounding neighbourhoods turn to. Our office at 1 Raymerville Drive covers everything from a child's first check-up to full-arch dental implants and complete smile makeovers, all under one roof.
Six doctors practise here, which means your family can stay with one dental office whether you need a routine cleaning, Invisalign in Markham, a repair after a broken tooth, or a treatment plan that spans several years. We combine digital diagnostics with care planned around your schedule, your budget, and your comfort level.
We are a CDCP dentist in Markham with direct billing through Sun Life, and we welcome new patients of all ages.
Every patient who walks into our Markham dental office gets the same thing. Unhurried time with a clinician, a clear explanation of what is happening in your mouth, and a plan you understand before anything starts. Here is what that looks like in practice.
Digital X-rays and intraoral cameras let us examine your teeth and gums in detail while keeping radiation exposure low. Instead of describing a problem in the abstract, we turn the screen towards you and talk through what we are both looking at. The same dental technology also shortens your time in the chair, because a scan that once meant booking a second visit now happens during the first one.
Preventive, restorative, cosmetic and emergency care all happen at Raymerville Drive, so nobody in your family gets referred across the city for routine work. That covers professional dental cleaning, non-metal white fillings, crowns and bridges and root canal treatment without changing clinics.
Two people with the same X-ray rarely need the same plan. We examine, we listen, and then we build something that fits your oral health, your work schedule and what you can realistically spend. Where a treatment can be staged over time, we say so upfront.
A lot of our patients arrive after years of avoiding dental appointments. Our team is used to that, and no one here will judge you. For patients who need more than a calm room, sedation dentistry is available so longer procedures pass without stress
You will find us at 1 Raymerville Drive, Unit 5, with free on site parking and easy access from Highway 7 and Markham Road. Evening appointments are available for patients who cannot get away during the workday, and new patients who bring their insurance details and a list of current medications are usually seen without paperwork delays at the front desk.

When was the last time you sat in a dental chair? If the honest answer is more than a year, you are far from alone.
Most oral health authorities recommend a checkup and cleaning roughly every six months, even when nothing hurts. Cavities, early gum disease, and cracked fillings can be silent in their first stages, and catching them early can be the difference between a filling and a crown. Our six doctors cover general dentistry, cosmetic dentistry, implant work, and oral surgery, so restarting a regular routine with our clinic doesn’t mean bouncing between offices later on.
You can have no pain at all and still have active decay, bone loss or an early crack in a molar. Only a full examination gives you the real picture. During a comprehensive check-up, we assess every tooth, chart your gum health, review your bite, and screen the soft tissues. Digital imaging shows what the eye cannot, including bone levels around existing restorations and roots.
When we find something, we explain what stage it is at and what happens if you leave it alone. That is usually the most useful part of the appointment, because it turns a vague worry into a decision with clear options.
The twice-yearly interval exists for simple arithmetic reasons. A cavity caught at the enamel stage is a small filling. The same cavity nine months later can reach the nerve and require a root canal and crown. Early gum inflammation can reverse with a cleaning and better home care, while advanced periodontal disease puts otherwise healthy teeth at risk of being lost.
Our hygiene program pairs regular cleanings with home-care coaching tailored to your mouth, not generic advice. When inflammation has already set in below the gumline, non-surgical gum therapy treats it without surgery in most cases.
Function and appearance are not separate projects. A chipped front tooth, staining that will not lift with over-the-counter products, or a bite that has worn unevenly are all things patients raise once they feel comfortable enough to ask.
We offer the full cosmetic range at our Markham clinic, including porcelain veneers for shape and colour, professional teeth whitening supervised in-office, Invisalign clear aligners for crowding and spacing, and a planned smile makeover when several concerns are addressed together. Every cosmetic consultation starts with your goals, not with a catalogue of procedures.
A cracked tooth, a lost crown, swelling or an abscess will not wait politely for your next scheduled visit. If you are dealing with any of these, contact our office as early in the day as possible so we can assess urgency over the phone and fit you in. Our emergency treatment page explains what counts as a dental emergency and what to do in the hours before you reach us.
Dental care works best as a relationship, not a series of emergencies. Patients who stay with one Markham dental office for years benefit from a complete record, a team that recognizes change early, and treatment sequencing that spreads costs sensibly instead of stacking them.
Whether you are searching for a family dentist near you, restarting after a long gap, or planning something larger like implants or a smile makeover, Markham Smile Centre is accepting new patients. If it's been a while, today is a good day to start.
Our team will confirm your request and schedule your visit.
Provide your insurance information and dental issues for customized care.
Yes. We welcome new patients of all ages, from children attending their first appointment to adults who haven't seen a dentist in years. Our new patients page explains what to bring and what the first visit covers.
We are at 1 Raymerville Drive, Unit 5, Markham, ON, L3P 5J5, with free on-site parking. The clinic is a short drive from Markham Village, Unionville, Cornell and Milliken.
Yes. We are a participating CDCP provider and bill Sun Life directly. Our clinic follows the Ontario Dental Association fee guide, so patients are responsible for any applicable co-payment plus the difference between the CDCP reimbursement and the ODA fee, payable at the time of the appointment. We verify your coverage and confirm the amounts before treatment begins.
No. The Canadian Dental Care Plan covers eligible oral health services and does not extend to cosmetic procedures such as whitening or veneers. If you are considering cosmetic work, our team will explain the costs separately and review the available payment plans.
For most people, a checkup and dental cleaning every six months is appropriate. Patients with a history of gum disease, high decay risk, diabetes or certain medications may be advised to come more frequently. Your dentist will set an interval based on your own risk factors rather than a default.
Call the clinic at 905-472-6670 as early as you can. Knocked-out teeth, facial swelling and severe pain are treated as urgent. Our emergency treatment page covers immediate steps for common situations while you are on your way in.
Tell us before your appointment, not on the day. Many patients do well with extra time, clear explanation and short breaks. If you need more time, sedation dentistry can help you get through longer or more involved procedures comfortably.
The main options are a dental implant, a dental bridge or a removable partial denture. Which one suits you depends on how many teeth are missing, the condition of the neighbouring teeth and your bone volume. For a full arch, All-on-4 Teeth in a Day is often the first option we discuss.
Yes. We offer supervised professional teeth whitening, which is assessed against the actual cause of your discolouration. Staining from food and drink responds differently to whitening than internal discolouration, and in some cases porcelain veneers or bonding give a better result.
Yes. Our clinic serves a diverse Markham community, and our team speaks several languages in addition to English. If you would prefer to be seen by someone who speaks your language, mention it when booking and we will arrange it where possible.
We take great pride in what we do, and how we do it. Together, we can navigate your journey to lifelong dental health. Let us help you bring out your happiest and healthiest smile!
