New patients are always welcome
If you are looking for a new dental home on Hamilton Mountain, you are in the right place. Limegreen Dental cares for families of every age, and we work hard to make your first visit relaxed, clear and unhurried.
Becoming a patient at Limegreen Dental
Choosing a dentist is a personal decision, and we do not take it lightly when a family chooses us. Limegreen Dental started in Mississauga in 2014 and opened on Limeridge Road West in 2017, just off Upper James with easy access from the Lincoln Alexander Parkway. We see patients from across the Mountain and neighbouring areas such as Westcliffe, Buchanan, Hill Park and Mohawk, along with Ancaster, Dundas and Stoney Creek.
There is no long wait list and no membership to sign. You can request a visit today and we will reach out to confirm a time that suits your week, including evenings and Saturdays. New patients are seen by Dr. Rania Salih, Dr. Firas Elias and Dr. Dania, supported by our hygienists, dental assistant and front-desk team.
What to expect at your first visit
Your first appointment is mostly about getting to know you and your mouth. We listen first, examine carefully, and only then talk about any treatment. Here is how a typical first visit flows.
A warm welcome and paperwork
Hanna or Zainab will greet you at reception, confirm your details, and review the short medical and dental history you filled in. This is the moment to mention anything that worries you.
A full examination
Your dentist checks your teeth, gums, bite and soft tissues, and screens for early signs of decay, gum disease and other concerns. We take digital x-rays only where they add useful information.
A plain-language conversation
We explain what we found in everyday words, show you images where helpful, and answer your questions. If treatment is needed, you get clear options before anything is booked.
Cleaning and next steps
When time allows we complete a cleaning and check-up at the same visit. Otherwise we schedule it close by, and set a recall reminder so you stay on track.
What to bring
A little preparation makes your first visit smoother and helps us bill correctly. Please bring:
- A piece of photo identification.
- Your dental insurance card, or your Canadian Dental Care Plan details if you are enrolled.
- A list of any medications you take, including dosages.
- Any recent x-rays or dental records from a previous dentist, if you have them.
- The name of anything that has caused you pain or concern, so we do not miss it.
Insurance and the CDCP for new patients
We want your coverage to be clear from the start. Limegreen Dental bills most major insurers directly and handles the claim for you. If you would like to understand how this works before you arrive, read our guide to dental insurance and direct billing in Hamilton.
We also accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan. If you are covered under the CDCP, bring your member details and we will check and explain your coverage and what it includes at your clinic. Just bring your insurance details and our front desk handles the claim.

Kids and nervous patients
For children, the goal of a first visit is simple: a positive, no-pressure experience that builds trust. We keep things short, show little ones the tools, and celebrate a job well done. Booking siblings together is easy, and parents are welcome to stay close by.
If you feel anxious about dental care, you are far from alone, and it does not embarrass us in the least. Let us know when you book. We move at your pace, describe each step before it happens, agree on a signal to pause, and keep the room calm. Many patients who once dreaded the dentist now tell us they look forward to seeing the same friendly faces.
