Book with Dr. Marchetti
Orthodontics & cosmetic
Certified Invisalign provider since 2014. Will tell you when a case is better handled with braces, and will say so before you've paid for anything.
Book with Dr. Oyelaran
Hygiene & periodontal care
Sees most of our patients twice a year and remembers all of them. Runs the periodontal program for anyone who needs more than a standard recall.
Book with ClaireGeneral dentistry, hygiene, orthodontics and emergencies, so nobody gets referred across town for something routine.
A full exam, a cleaning with your hygienist, and x-rays when they're due rather than at every visit.
Tooth-coloured composite and same-day crowns milled here, so a broken tooth is one appointment rather than three.
A scan, a plan and a price at the consultation, with the aligners made and monitored in-house.
In-chair or take-home whitening, and porcelain veneers when whitening isn't going to get there.
Done here rather than referred out, including wisdom teeth in most cases, with sedation available.
We hold slots every morning for pain, a broken tooth or a lost crown. Call before nine and you'll be seen that day.
Six operatories on Dundas East, with parking at the door and a waiting room nobody has to sit in for long.




For anyone who hasn't been here before, whether or not you have insurance. It's a full hour with a hygienist and a dentist, and there's nothing to buy at the end of it.
Yes, to every major insurer in Canada. You pay whatever your plan doesn't cover and nothing else, and we'll tell you that number before the appointment rather than at the desk afterwards.
We charge the Ontario Dental Association fee guide, which is the published rate, and we'll give you a written estimate before anything is booked. For larger treatment we can split it across three or six months with no interest.
We do, along with ODSP and Healthy Smiles Ontario for children. Bring the paperwork to your first visit and the front desk will handle the rest.
Yes, all three of us. A first appointment is usually available within two weeks, and same-week if you're flexible on the time.
A full hour. A hygienist takes x-rays and does the cleaning, then a dentist goes through everything with you and writes down what needs doing, what can wait and what each one costs.
Say so when you book and we'll put you with Dr. Marchetti and give you a longer appointment. Nothing gets done at that visit unless you want it to, and you can stop at any point without explaining.
Alderwyn has been in the same unit since 1998 and most of our patients have been coming for more than a decade. Their children come now too, which is the only measure of a dental practice that means anything.
We run to time. If we're going to be late you'll get a text before you leave the house, because sitting in a waiting room past your appointment is the part people remember.
Three hundred and forty reviews from across Durham.
“Never once waited more than five minutes past my appointment. After the last place I was at, that alone is worth switching for.”
“Dr. Oyelaran scanned my teeth, showed me the plan on screen and gave me the total in the same visit. Eighteen months later it's done.”
“I hadn't been to a dentist in nine years. Dr. Marchetti spent the first appointment just looking and talking. I've been back four times since.”
“Cracked a molar on a Tuesday morning, called at half eight, was in the chair by eleven and out with a crown the same day.”
“They book us all back to back on a Saturday so it's one trip. Small thing, and it's the reason all three kids have never missed a cleaning.”
“Wrote out exactly what everything would cost and what could wait a year. First dentist who's ever done that for me.”
Pick a dentist, pick an evening or a Saturday, and we'll confirm by phone the same day.
