Choice of Treatment Options 
Most of the time, there can be more than one valid treatment option. It is our pleasure to take the time to help you with choosing the right options, explaining pros and cons of each, as well as expected fees associated so you are well equipped to confidently make an informed decision. 

With staged or more complex treatments, a Treatment Plan will be presented to you. This is a list of the chosen treatment, estimated fees, treatment item and tooth identification numbers. This can help with not only financial management, but also with organizing intervals in between appointments and estimated time required for each visit.

Value Booster Club Membership

Here at Manchester Unity Dental Centre, we know the real struggle of everyday people trying to keep up with the rising cost of everything. And maintaining a nice, confident smile and healthy teeth needn't be another source of financial pressure. 


Really, taking care of your teeth should not have to mean navigating a complicated minefield of insurance premiums, extras, limits, claims, and all the other fineprint! 


We've decided to make it easier and we are excited to bring this brand new program for our new and existing patients. 


If you don't have health insurance or want to pay less for dental cover, this is for you! 


It's simple. $1090 covers all your routine basic check-up and cleans (preventative maintenance) twice a year, for an entire 12 months. 


That’s worth over $1250 of value normally! 


Feel good but also look great - as a bonus treat, it will include one session of in-office whitening to give you more to smile about! 


So for less than a typical annual insurance premium, you have already got your preventative maintenance ticked off. 


But what if you need or want extra work? 


You get 15 percent off everything else, unlimited.
