About Us


Why Patients Choose Us

Ontario legislation allows Registered Dental Hygienists authorized by the College of Dental Hygienists of Ontario to provide dental hygiene care without requiring a dentist referral. This means patients can access Preventive Dental Hygiene treatments based on a comprehensive assessment, helping improve access to oral health care while ensuring safe and appropriate care.

Independent Dental Hygienist

A Collaborative Model for Accessible Preventive Care

Dental Hygiene with Dezarae is helping expand access to preventive care in Muskoka through a collaborative model where the Registered Dental Hygienist and dentist work from separate locations, each providing care within their own scope, direction, and professional standards. This approach supports clear, coordinated care based on patient needs, with a focus on Preventive Dental Hygiene treatments and appropriate referrals when needed. Dental hygienists are regulated primary health care professionals who help patients achieve and maintain oral and overall health through education, prevention, and ongoing support.

Dental Hygiene with Dezarae offers an alternative to traditional dental clinics with a focus on preventive dental hygiene care, patient education, and personalized support. With no dentist on site, care is provided by a Registered Dental Hygienist within the scope of dental hygiene, with referrals arranged when additional care is needed.

Systemic Health Connection

The Connection Between Oral Health and Overall Health

There is a large body of research that links oral plaque to various systemic illnesses. This list includes, but is not limited to: heart and stroke disease, respiratory illness, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes, pregnancy complications, Alzheimer’s disease, Osteoporosis, Sjogren’s syndrome, and various cancers.


Increasingly, research is finding that bacterial plaque from the mouth is contributing to systemic inflammation in other parts of the body. The bacteria are traveling from the mouth, through the bloodstream to other parts of the body. This is particularly the case when a patient’s mouth is full of active periodontal disease and mouth inflammation. The imbalance of harmful microbial flora in the mouth needs to be addressed effectively.
