Lakeside Family Dental, family dental clinic in Burlington

Lakeside Family Dental is a general dental clinic located in Burlington, Ontario, that welcomes new patients and provides family, cosmetic, restorative, and emergency dentistry. The team consists of Dr. Cohen and Dr. DeCesare, along with the rest of the clinic staff, and presents itself as a multidisciplinary center with its own periodontist and dental surgeon, allowing complete treatments to be resolved under one roof.

The clinic states that it works by appointment, offers extended hours—including early mornings, evenings, and Saturdays—and handles dental emergencies the same day whenever possible. It also accepts the CDCP (Canadian Dental Care Program) plan and provides direct billing to insurance.

Orthodontics and clear aligners

One of the featured services is orthodontics. The clinic offers traditional braces and ClearCorrect clear aligners, which it describes as comfortable, removable, and virtually invisible, without interfering with the patient's daily routine. Aligner treatment is presented as a faster alternative to traditional metal braces.

Orthodontics is aimed at patients of all ages and addresses cases of crooked, spaced, crowded, or protruding teeth, as well as overbite, underbite, and crossbite. The clinic announces a free no-obligation consultation that includes a digital scan, and its catalog shows braces and aligner prices starting at $2,899.

General, cosmetic, and restorative dentistry

The service list includes dental cleaning and hygiene, wisdom tooth extraction and other extractions, whitening, veneers, dental bonding, bridges, crowns, dentures, fillings, and implants. In the cosmetic field, whitening treatments and veneers are offered, and in restorative care, the main solutions for replacing teeth are covered.

The clinic also has complementary services such as sports guards, sleep apnea and snoring appliances, night guards for bruxism and TMD, dental sedation, scaling and root planing, root canal treatment, periodontal therapy, and oral surgery.

Digital technology and diagnosis

Lakeside Family Dental uses digital equipment for diagnosis and treatment. Among the resources it mentions are guided implant surgery, the TRIOS 4 intraoral scanner, the Planmeca PlanMill 30 S system, panoramic X-rays, intraoral camera, and the Waterlase laser. The clinic notes that this technology allows delivering a dental crown in a single visit, in a process of one to two hours depending on the case, without the need for impression materials or additional visits.

It also uses the VELscope system for detecting abnormalities in the oral cavity that may indicate cancer or precancerous conditions, and the Ivoclar Vivadent Programat CS4 furnace for processing ceramic and composite restorations in the dental laboratory.
