Our office had been located in this bright, modern building since 1990 with easy wheelchair accessibility.

As you enter the office you will be greeted by our two receptionists, Deborah and Laraine, who will help you check in and they will familiarize you with our office procedures. They are responsible for scheduling appointments and helping you with payment and insurance inquiries. They will also be pleased to answer your phone call during our regular office hours.

This is our reception area which is very sunny and bright with lots of natural light from the skylight. It is decorated in a bright, bold colour scheme. This is a quiet area for parents to relax and we have a good selection of up-to-date magazines for your reading pleasure. There is a young childrens corner with toys to keep them occupied while their sibling is undergoing treatment. The large aquarium with many colourful fish is also popular with younger children and adults too!

This is the initial consultation room where the patient is first seen by Dr. McWade. He will do a thorough facial and dental examination to determine if orthodontic treatment is required and when the best time would be to start. Parents are invited to be present so Dr. McWade can show them in their child's mouth what the various problems may be.

This is our bright and open treatment area with lots of windows to provide a pleasant area for our staff to cater to our patients. Dr. McWade, Kim and Shelley see the patients in this area to place the braces or appliances and to make the frequent adjustments to them. Parents are welcome to be present here while this work is being done.

This is the on-site laboratory where our lab assistant, Barb, pours the models of the teeth and makes the retainers that are worn after the braces are removed to hold the teeth in their new positions. She also analyzes the X-rays on the computer to help Dr. McWade in his diagnosis and treatment planning.

This is our modern, up-to-date X-ray machine which takes the two extra oral X-rays that Dr. McWade requires to analyze the teeth and the jaw structure to determine the health of the teeth and the kind of jaw growth. All this information is used to determine the best treatment plan for the patient.

This is our records room where the hygienist takes molds of the teeth and digital photographs which along with the X-rays that are taken next door allow Dr. McWade to fully analyze the problems and recommend the appropriate treatment at the proper time.
