What Horizons Dental Care does

Horizons Dental Care is an independently owned, single-location dental practice based in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 2019 by Dr. Gustavo Azevedo, the practice operates from a facility at 2255 Carling Ave with five individual operatories designed by Patterson Dental and serves patients from Westboro, Woodpark, Bayshore, Carlington, Nepean, and surrounding Ottawa neighborhoods. The practice employs approximately 11 staff including associate dentists, full-time hygienists, certified dental assistants, and an office manager, and offers multilingual service in English, Portuguese, Spanish, Hindi, and Arabic.

The practice delivers a comprehensive dental service portfolio spanning general dentistry (cleanings, exams, fillings, crowns, bridges, sealants), cosmetic dentistry (veneers, bonding, Lumineers, Zoom whitening, smile makeovers), orthodontics (Invisalign, clear aligners), endodontic treatment (root canal therapy, retreatment), oral surgery (extractions, wisdom teeth), periodontal care (scaling and root planing, gingivectomy), prosthodontics (dental implants, dentures, hybrid prosthesis), pediatric dentistry, and emergency dental services.

The business model is fee-for-service dental care with diversified payment channels: direct billing to most private insurance plans, acceptance of government programs (Canadian Dental Care Plan, Interim Federal Health Program, Non-Insured Health Benefits), self-pay, and third-party patient financing through Humm Financing and iFinance. Patient acquisition is direct-to-consumer through multiple channels including NexHealth online booking, phone, WhatsApp messaging, walk-ins, Google Business Profile and reviews, an educational dental blog, Facebook and Instagram presence, and community sponsorships. Pricing follows the Ontario Dental Association fee guide but is not publicly disclosed.
