This is our story.
Owner Operated
Our dental office has been proudly serving the people of the Agincourt, Scarborough, and GTA for more than four decades. We are easily accessible on the main floor of Agincourt Mall, at the northwest corner of Kennedy and Sheppard (see map below). We are located next to Tim Horton's; the closest entrance being the mall entrance near No-Frills. Plenty of free parking is available.
We are a general/family dental practice that strives to meet the varied needs of all our patients. There is something very important in ongoing dental care, about feeling comfortable at the office you and your family use. About knowing the staff, hygienists, and dentist you see, are the ones you know, like, trust; and will be there for you in the future.
Established in 1967 by Dr. Jack Lindzon, he was joined by his son Dr. Richard Lindzon in 1991. We have an excellent support staff, from the front desk, to the dental assistants. There are 2 hygienists available for dental cleanings 6 days a week. The practice has grown and adjusted over these many years, as has the neighbourhood it resides in.
Unlike many dental office websites, that are produced by 3rd party providers, this site has been completely written, designed, published by Dr. Richard Lindzon and his son Matt. The personal touch displayed here, is carried over to all aspects of care in our office. Please browse this site to learn more about our office, the people in it, and the services we provide. Then, if you have any questions, call us, email us, or come in to talk to anyone in the office, and make an appointment to visit us.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
Dr. Richard Lindzon
Dentistry has changed a lot recently. When I graduated, almost all offices were operated by one dentist. Sometimes there were group practices, and many offices had dental associates.
That is changing now.
Many offices now are so called 'corporate practices.' This means that a dental corporation owns and runs many offices. The dentist is merely an employee of the corporation.
This can have many negative implications for dental care in these offices. There is pressure on the dentist to perform, to produce. If the dentist is not the owner, of the practice, he has less incentive to or possibly opportunity to follow a patient and maintain their long term oral health needs and goals
Our office is owned and operated by Dr. Richard Lindzon. There is an associate dentist in the office who's goals are in accord with that of Dr. Lindzon and the offices patients. That is excellence in oral health treatment; both in the short term for emergencies and such, and long term.
Adding to this is a staff that is committed to the office for the long term. Some of our staff members have been working here for more than 20 years.
Keep on smilin'

It's all about the staff
A dental office is more than just the dentist of course. We are proud of the other members of our team from the front desk, the dental assistants and the dental hygienists.
Meet the team.
