Dear valued Public and Patients, As everyone is aware, the COVID-19 pandemic is a rapidly evolving situation. RCDSO has just released on March 15, 2020 that all dentists in the province of Ontario are recommended to close for all elective procedures immediately and remain closed until at least the first week of April. In keeping with this recommendation, Dr Shadid has decided that Dentistry at the Crossing will now be closed for all elective procedures, consultations and rout...ine cleanings. All appointments for this period are in the process of being cancelled and will be rescheduled as soon as possible. We will continue to see patients who require emergency care which includes uncontrolled dental pain, dental related infection, or other acute issues deemed appropriate on specific dates which can be booked by email at [email protected] or by phone at 613-225-7000. We will have one staff on duty during business hours to be of any assistance and answer any questions over the phone. Emails will be responded within 1 business day. We appreciate your continued support and patience during these unprecedented times. Take care, be safe, stay home. Your Dentistry at the Crossing Family

Chances are if you’re reading this, you’ve already heard about Invisalign. But what is this teeth straightening treatment and how does it really work? For so long, the only real way to correct a crooked smile was by strapping on a set of wired braces from the orthodontist. But for adults, this was never as much of a viable option since the idea of showing off a mouth full of metal can be perceived as a not so attractive or professional look. Thankfully, that’s why Invisalign was invented. This advanced treatment lets you get that picture perfect smile without the metal mouth, and with a minimally invasive piece that can be worn when you’re at home. Read on to learn more about this game-changing treatment and why Invisalign is so popular today.
