Giving Back
At Avalon Dental we are passionate about dentistry, educating others and giving back to the community. Each year we have a kid’s day at the office - a special day set aside for fun and learning. The day is planned around a theme. Staff dress in costume and the children are visited by themed characters. There’s face painting and loot bags for every child, and plenty of smiling faces leaving the office. The proceeds of the days work, minus our overhead, are donated to charity.
Other donations from staff and management are made every year. 9/11 was an opportunity for Avalon Dental to provide hundreds of tooth brushes to the displaced passengers during a time of international crisis. Our office also supports a foster child and donations are made to many other charitable causes throughout the year.
Haiti has also become a special charity for us after their tragic earthquake in 2010. The staff at our office has supported the Canadian International Dental Foundation in their efforts to help with dental care in Haiti.
Infection Control
Our state-of-the-art steri-centre is supervised by a dedicated staff member. We exceed the standards established in accordance with Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA), the Canadian Dental Association (CDA) and the Centre for Disease Control (CDC). Our sterilizers are checked routinely every week by an independent government laboratory.
