About North York Smile Centre
Family, Cosmetic & Implant Dental Clinic in North York
North York Smile Centre is a dental clinic located on Yonge Street in North York, serving families in North York and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) for over 35 years. Its team consists of seven dentists and works without the need for referrals or waiting, so it handles everything from a child's first check-up to a full-mouth restoration in one place.
The clinic presents itself as a space that combines modern technology and personalized care, with the stated goal of supporting patients at every stage of their oral health.
Dental Services Available
The treatment catalogue covers several areas of dentistry:
- General and preventive dentistry.
- Cosmetic dentistry: porcelain veneers, teeth whitening, Invisalign aligners, and dental bonding.
- Dental implants, including All-on-Four and Teeth-in-a-Day systems.
- CEREC crowns made in a single appointment.
- Same-day emergency dentistry.
- Four levels of dental sedation.
The clinic states that it performs full-mouth restorations with All-on-Four or Teeth-in-a-Day implants and offers complete smile makeovers.
Technology and Working Method
The centre has digital X-rays, intraoral cameras, and CEREC technology for same-day crowns. According to its description, the first visit begins with a thorough examination using these tools to get a complete picture of oral health before making recommendations. The team explains the findings in plain language and presents the options without pressuring the patient.
Treatment plans are created individually, taking into account each person's goals, budget, and dental history, whether for a filling or a full restoration with implants.
Sedation for Anxious Patients
The clinic offers four levels of sedation: nitrous oxide (laughing gas) for mild anxiety, oral sedation, IV conscious sedation, and general anesthesia. The clinic notes that this variety of options is greater than that of most dental clinics in North York and is designed for patients who have avoided going to the dentist out of fear.
Professional Team
The team is made up of Dr. Jerry Jesin, Dr. Robert Eisen, Dr. James C.H. Ko, Dr. Jacklyn Pivovarov, Dr. Mitchell Dzaldov, Dr. Goli Ariafar, Dr. Riya George, and Dr. Michael Oellinger. The clinic highlights that each doctor brings experience in different areas, from routine family care to complex implant surgery and sedation.
The staff speaks ten languages, including English, Hebrew, Mandarin, Korean, Spanish, Tagalog, Greek, Farsi, Dari, and Turkish, which facilitates communication with patients from diverse backgrounds.
Insurance, Billing, and Access
North York Smile Centre accepts the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and offers direct billing through Sun Life for eligible services. The administrative team verifies coverage before starting treatment and explains copayments or fee differences in advance. The clinic follows the Ontario Dental Association (ODA) fee guide.
The centre is open Monday to Friday, with extended hours until 7:00 PM on Wednesdays and Thursdays, and Saturdays until 2:00 PM. It is steps from Finch Subway Station on Yonge Street, and parking is available nearby.
Patients and Service Area
The clinic serves new patients from North York, Willowdale, Newtonbrook, Midtown Toronto, and the rest of the GTA. Its preventive approach is based on detecting small problems — early cavities, first signs of gum disease, or enamel wear — before they worsen, and it recommends two visits per year to stay on track.
The clinic presents itself as a long-term partner in oral health, from a child's first cleaning to implants, dentures, or full restorations in later stages of life.
