Detailed Introduction

Filling The Gap Dental Outreach is a charitable, non-profit organization dedicated to bridging the gap in dental care for underserved communities in Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Founded by Dr. Amanda Morel, a practicing dentist who recognized the significant unmet need for affordable dental services among low-income individuals, the organization utilizes existing community dental clinics during their off-hours to deliver care. This innovative approach allows them to maximize resources and reach a broader population facing financial and other barriers to dental treatment. The services provided by Filling The Gap Dental Outreach include specific examinations, digital X-rays, dental cleanings, fillings, and extractions. These are urgent dental services aimed at alleviating pain, addressing infections, and improving the overall oral health of their patients. They specifically cater to low-income adults who do not have dental coverage through private insurance or government plans, including vulnerable groups such as seniors, students, people experiencing homelessness, and undocumented individuals. The organization relies heavily on the dedication of volunteer dentists, dental hygienists, and other health professionals who generously donate their time and skills. This volunteer model is central to their ability to offer affordable care. Filling The Gap Dental Outreach operates at various locations, including the Rexdale Community Health Centre in Etobicoke (21 Panorama Ct, Etobicoke, ON M9V 3S6) and the Urban Dental Clinic in Scarborough. Appointments are typically required, and patient eligibility is screened to ensure services reach those most in need. Filling The Gap Dental Outreach's mission extends beyond just providing immediate dental services. They aim to empower communities through oral health education, workshops, and resources, promoting preventive care and long-term well-being. Their work significantly reduces dental emergencies and improves the quality of life for individuals who would otherwise have nowhere to turn for essential dental treatment.

Filling the Gap Dental Outreach is exactly what its name says—a vital bridge to care for those who need it most. As someone without insurance, I avoided the dentist for years until a toothache became unbearable. Their free monthly clinics were a godsend. The volunteer dentists and hygienists treated me with dignity, no judgment, and explained my cavity treatment clearly. They even stayed late to finish my filling, ensuring I wasn’t in pain.

The setup is simple but clean, and the staff handed out free supplies—brushes, floss, paste—to help me stay on track. My son got a free checkup before school, and the dentist made it fun with stickers. It’s more than dental work; it’s kindness filling a real need in the community.

Staff are very nice and gentle. They make you feel extremly comfortable. Enviroment is clean. Procedures are done efficiently and with ease. Over all Filling in the gap is doing a wonderful job and there should be more places like this. Thank you to all the volunteers who come out and do such incredible work.

I was referred to this clinic, from another emergency clinic I was being treated at that could not address the issue I had (they didn’t do this particular procedure at their clinic). I am grateful that Dr. Lue took on my case. She took the time to explain the procedure, its risks and the viability of the solution giving me a clear understanding of my possible outcomes as the years progress. At different points during the procedure she gave me small milestone updates to give me an idea of where we were at, which made me extremely comfortable.

When you can’t talk, it’s always reassuring when you don’t have to wonder what is going on, or what the noises are. I left this appointment knowing what the next steps are, and why the procedure will happen in the stages that it did. Sati, the front desk co-ordinator was wonderful. My phone number was accidentally input incorrectly and she took the extra step to track me down by multiple emails to confirm my appointment. Since my case didn’t necessarily have to be taken on by their clinic…if I missed this appointment there could have been almost a 1 month wait or them not taking me at all.

Her extra step helped me tremendously. If you are fortunate enough to receive care at this clinic, rest assured you are treated with respect, dignity and compassion. I am grateful for their help, and how they run their clinic.

I had an appointment with this place and i was told to come my tooth extraction on Saturday also was told to bring 3 months of bank statements witch I brought. When i arrived they tried to play a game with me that i didn’t have the appointment the other one she said i had but we cancelled this morning the other one said no the dr is not there now. I was so stressed when they laugh on me. I was wondering where i am I asked there phone number they all said is correct they have my name and my number correct then what is going on.

the Indian girl was the worst one shouting of me like a baby I wasted my time. the most disgusting customer service i ever experienced in my life,four different secretaries all of them were garbage. the place smells i wound t recommend any ones there.
