Dentistry for Everyone’s first location opens today near Liberty Village to increase access to dental care & help save patients hundreds of dollars with every visit

TORONTO, Oct. 23, 2023 /CNW/ – As a new survey reveals even high-income earners are worried about the cost of dental care, and dental fee guides have increased by up to 10 per cent, a team of local dentists debut Dentistry for Everyone. The innovative dental clinic concept offers quality care on core dental services for at least 30 per cent less than standard fees. Dentistry for Everyone opens its first location today near Liberty Village in Toronto at 406 Dufferin St.

“Finding a way to improve access to dental care has been a longtime dream. We’re thrilled to open our first clinic today to introduce a revitalized and modernized clinic model to achieve our mission to make dentistry more accessible to everyone,” said Dr. Karim ElMofty, co-founder of Dentistry for Everyone, member of the Ontario Dental Association, and general dentist with a Master’s degree in Dental Public Health.

New ‘Access to Dentistry’ survey reveals high-income earners are worried
A recent Leger survey, commissioned by Dentistry for Everyone, reveals even Canadians (43 per cent) earning incomes over $100k would like to get more dental work but are worried about the cost, compared to 62 per cent with a household income of less than $100k.

Furthermore, over half of all Canadians (56%) agree they’d like to get more needed dental work completed, but are worried about being able to afford it.

“I’ve seen lawyers to low-income earners worry about affording the services needed for good oral health. Even patients with dental insurance and government support worry about costs,” said Dr. ElMofty.

Additional survey data reveals access to dental care can be painful:

  • 53% of Canadians would be more likely to go to the dentist if they could book online or through an app with upfront pricing
  • 75% wish they knew how much their dentist appointment would cost before they booked the appointment
  • Over half (51%) agree they have dental benefits, but it’s never enough to cover their entire dental care needs
  • Please find national, and GTA-specific data from the survey here.

Expansion plans
Dentistry for Everyone’s first clinic is located at 406 Dufferin St. near Toronto’s Liberty Village. Additional clinics are planned for 2024 with openings across the Greater Toronto Area. Dentistry for Everyone’s innovative model is set to disrupt Canada’s dental market anticipated to grow by 2.6% this year to reach $21.7b in revenue.

About Dentistry for Everyone
Dentistry for Everyone is modernizing the dental clinic model to provide commonly needed dental services for at least 30 per cent less than standard fee guides while adhering to a high standard of care. Dentistry for Everyone was founded by a group of accomplished and experienced Toronto dentists on a mission to make dental services accessible with more affordable fees, and a modern, convenient, comfortable dental experience. By offering upfront pricing, seamless booking, and a friendly, comfortable, calming environment, Dentistry for Everyone aims to help patients feel at ease while receiving care in a modern, non-traditional clinic setting.

Leger survey methodology
On behalf of Dentistry for Everyone, a survey was completed between September 15-17, 2023, using Leger’s online panel of 1564 Canadians, 18+. No margin of error can be associated with a non-probability sample (i.e. a web panel in this case). For comparative purposes, though, a probability sample of 1564 respondents would have a margin of error of ±2.5%, 19 times out of 20.
