Dr. Taghizadeh and the dedicated team at Hummingbird Dental make every effort to provide exceptional quality of dental care at affordable prices. Our main goal is to make patients of all ages feel at ease when they visit our clinic. We love what we do, and our patient’s smiles say it all! We specialize in a wide range of dental services and do most of our treatments in-house virtually eliminating the need for specialist referrals. Our clinic is an excellent choice if you are looking for quality cosmetic dentistry, veneers, restorative dentistry, Invisalign, endodontics (root canal treatments) and prosthodontics (crown/bridges/dentures). We also offer same day emergency dental appointments, pediatric dentistry as well as the option to see a dentist on Saturdays for clients with busy schedules. We speak many languages, and we serve patients in English, Persian, Russian, Hindi and Urdu. If you’re looking for a local dentist serving patients and families and open Richmond Hill dentistry, Markham, Thornhill, Vaughan, Aurora or surrounding communities in the GTA, we are accepting new patients. There is so much that goes into choosing the right dentist for you and your family...we know it’s much more than looking for a “dentist near me” online to be the best fit!

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed many things about our daily lives. Dental offices were mandated to close in March, and only emergency dental care was available. This decision was made to reduce and contain the spread of the coronavirus and reduce the need for masks and other personal protective equipment.

Now that Royal College of Dental Surgeons of Ontario has made recommendations for dental offices to open to patients for non-emergency appointments again, extra safety precautions are being taken. If you need to see your dentist in Richmond Hill in the near future, here is what you can expect at your next appointment.

Before Your Appointment

To ensure that the patients are healthy, your dental office might call you before your appointment. They will require you to complete a form asking you if you’ve been affected by COVID-19 or if you know someone who has been affected by the disease for safety reasons.

The clinic might also repeat these questions in-person once you arrive at the clinic to ensure that you are well, healthy and a good candidate to receive dental care.

Your dentist may limit the number of people you can bring to your appointment. This may mean that you will have to leave your children at home, or let your older children go to the dentist alone. Since dental clinics are reopening in Richmond Hill, citizens can hope to see the same strictness observed in other public places.

During Your Appointment

Before you leave your house, even if you’re sure no one around you is COVID-19 positive, please wear a mask. When you arrive at the dentist’s office, you may be asked to wait outside until the dentist is ready to see you. This will be done to make sure there are fewer people when you arrive at the office

The reception area may look different (e.g. no toys or magazines) for safety reasons.

Once you’re inside the dentist’s office, you might notice that the surroundings look different. The dentist might have a plastic cover over their keyboard, and your dentist might also be using more protective equipment than they did before, such as special masks, gowns, or goggles.

After Your Appointment

Now that dental clinics are reopening in Richmond Hill, cleanliness is extremely important. After you leave the dental office, the staff will thoroughly clean items you touched or interacted with before texting another client to enter the office. These heightened safety measures can help reduce the spread of COVID-19.
