FAQ – General

We always have a dentist on call 24/7 available to see patients if need be. We encourage patients to contact the office at 905-655-6255 so they can reach the dentist on their cell phone for emergency care after hours.

We like to stress the importance of not letting anxiety/fear stop a patient from visiting the dentist for restorative work or cleanings. Dental anxiety is very common and we have many options available to make our patient’s visits more comfortable. Coming to the dentist isn’t the easiest thing to do, but at Dr. Snider Dentistry we offer a range of services to help calm our patient’s nerves. We offer simple distractions like televisions mounted in the ceilings of each dental room, or sedation services to help our patients relax like laughing gas or sleeping pills (to be taken prior to the appointment).

We are an owner-operated local dental practice with Dr. Shane Snider as the primary dentist. Dr. Mark Bishara is working as a part-time associate. When a patient is looking for a dentist, they are likely looking for consistency in both who provides their care and, in turn, the quality of the care they receive. Our practice provides the comfort of knowing that at each visit, our patients will always be seen by the dentist they have come to know and trust. As well, our patients should know that we use the latest technologies, such as digital x-rays, digital impressions, and many other advanced technologies.

It’s important for us to work with our patients to find a suitable financial arrangement as we know that finances can be a barrier to receiving the dental care patients need. If insurance is available, we are able to bill directly to an insurance company, but if not, based on individualized plans, we can provide our patients payment plans on a monthly withdrawal basis.
