Is SmileMatch free to use?

How does the new patient offer work?

Your first appointment is $100 and your second is just $50. After your second visit, we'll email you a $50 digital Amazon gift card you can put toward a third appointment. Terms & conditions apply.

How are clinics verified?

Before a clinic is listed, we confirm its dental licence is valid and in good standing, check that it meets provincial health and safety standards, and review patient feedback. Listings are re-checked periodically to keep the network trustworthy.

Do clinics accept my insurance?

Most partner clinics accept major insurance plans and direct billing. Each clinic profile lists the plans it accepts.

Can I book an emergency appointment?

Yes. Choose "Emergency" to see clinics with same-day availability, or contact us and we will help you find one.

Checkup & Exam

A dental checkup and exam is a complete look at your oral health. Your dentist reviews your teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues, takes X-rays when needed, and screens for decay, gum disease and other issues before they become painful or costly.

Regular exams are the single best way to avoid big dental bills. Through SmileMatch you can book a verified Canadian clinic for a checkup, often fully covered by the CDCP or your insurance plan.
