PalacePrincess Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 OHIP doesn't cover any regular dentist stuff.a checkup & cleaning costs anywhere from $110 to $150 depending on the dentist.other things like cavities, getting a wisdom (or other) tooth pulled are all extra.

peipunk Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I suggest you talk to Asparagus and get hooked up with his dentist. It would mean a trip to West-brah (watch out for the loose women), but I went to her once and she was really good, even gave me a break after hearing my I'm-an-oh-so-poor-musician sob story (I didn't tell her that I spent what money I did make on booze and drugs). Actually, she was so nice that I just felt a twinge of guilt. Just a little one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bouche Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Dr.Nodelman in the Minto Enterprise building is a fantastic dentist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CyberHippie Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 If you feel like coming to Toronto, my dentist is great. I had to get a cavity filled once:dentist: "so are we getting you stoned out of your mind today, or are you going with just freezing? It's a great clean and legal buzz!"me: "i'll go with the stoned out of my mind"dentist: "here's the music menu, what would you like to listen to?"me: "hmm Santana sounds good"fog........dentist pops in: "how's it going, how's your buzz? want me to turn it up a bit?"me: "yeeeeeessssssss" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Huxtable Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I second Dr. Nodelman being a great dentist and a great photographer as well (you can see his pictures displayed at the new Stone Face Dolly's on Preston).I never pay attention to his rates because I have a dental plan but I go in for a cleaning next Wednesday so I'll save my bill and let you know. He's really and truly the best Dentist I've ever been to. 233-4885 for an appointment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatpatguy Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 my buddy Dan recommends Dr. Ferhana Jaleel, 225-5707, http://www.vollmerjaleel.com/he had a pile of work done there.. some reconstructive stuff even.. way more than your general cleaning or cavity.. and was really impressed.. he even said it was "virtually pain free"just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Douglas Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Dr. Hill at Holland Cross Dental is fantastic, as are his assistants. Pricey though if you don't have a plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaggyBalls Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 www.drsmile.ca - Clarke Webster's my dentist while in Ottawa, but I'd go with Cyber Hippie's dentist if i were mobile enough to go to toronto for my dentistry.i didn't have to get any surgery when i had my wisdom teeth out. a very painless dentist.there seem to be a lot of great options...but keep in mind that dentists are expensive no matter where you go. Don't hesitate to go to Algonquin for a student deal...but keep in mind it's students working on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freeker Posted October 20, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Thanks for the advice, I'll try a couple of them tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglas Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 by the way.... FLOSS! EVERYONE SHOULD FLOSS THEIR TEETH! It only sucks for the first couple of days after not having flossed for a long time, and then it feels like a massage! mmmm....floss.... But then again, I like going to the dentist. They always ask me what I want to watch on the tele when I get in the chair, and I always say, "Just turn it off. I'm going to close my eyes anyway."

Big Wooly Mammoth Posted October 3, 2007 Report Share Posted October 3, 2007 Ms. Huxtable and Bouche - I’d like to thank both of you for recommending Dr. Nodelman. I had been avoiding the dentist since moving from Toronto and had not been to one in over 5 years. After reading this thread a few years ago, I wrote down his name. I finally went to see him last spring and I have been very happy with his work. My wife ended up going to a dentist that had been recommended by an acquaintance. After losing a tooth, and having other problems, due to some shoddy work and not putting together a proper treatment plan, she went to see Dr. Nodelman yesterday. She was very pleased. So, thanks!

bouche Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 nice topic resurrection!I'm going in for an appt. this month to do some really fancy shit to make sure that a fissure in my tooth doesn't let it crack. Seriously, watch this video. It's cool technology that I had no idea existed in the dental office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
