May 2014: Toronto West Implant Continuum Program!

Breaking News!

Dr. Emil Svoboda PhD, DDS is the Director of the Toronto West Implant Continuum. It is a program held at ParkPlace Dental Centre on Saturdays. The nature of this program is to give dentists an opportunity to gain experience placing dental implants under the supervision of Dr. Svoboda. He has placed and restored over 3000 dental implants. The problem is, some of the dentists are finding it difficult to find suitable patients for this learning experience.

If you wish to have implant treatment, but are having difficulty with the financial challenge presented by this excellent treatment modality, why not consider having your dental implants placed by dentists supervised by Dr. Svoboda or one of his capable faculty?

Other costs involved in treatment are at their normal reasonable levels and will be discussed prior to the beginning of treatment. Registrations are on a first come-first served basis. Please call (905) 866-6657 and ask for Akiko to register for this beneficial program. She will arrange an appointment to discuss your particular concerns.

Spring has taken hold and the great Canadian Summer is upon us. With the days getting longer, most of us are spending more time in the sun.

Wear a helmet when you cycle
Make sure you wear supportive footwear when going on long walks and hikes
Use a good mouth guard for playing sports such as soccer and football to protect your teeth.

How to Prevent Tooth Decay!

Tooth Decay describes the break down of strong healthy teeth over time.

Your tooth's surface is composed of a hard mineral coating called enamel. Enamel is the hardest tissue in your body, but by no means indestructible. Actually, enamel is exposed to bacteria all day which produce plaque. Plaque is the substance that covers your teeth and eats away at the enamel causing the holes known as cavities.

Brushing your teeth, flossing and regular dental visits will help keep plaque under control. Leaving plaque on your teeth leads to tartar buildup which brushing and flossing alone can not remove. Letting plaque get out of control can lead to many oral problems ranging from bad breath and cavities to gum recession Periodontal disease and tooth loss.

Dentistry has come a long way over the last 20 years giving our kids a better chance at healthy teeth and protecting them from the pain, suffering and financial strain that is still far too common in our adult population. Serious dental problems are also far too common in nations that are not very advanced in child care. We are very lucky to be growing up in Canada!
