A dental home built on 40 years of trust

East River Dental has been a cornerstone of the Newmarket community since 1982. What started as a commitment to providing exceptional dental care to local families has grown into a practice that has served generations of patients.

We're located in the heart of the Newmarket Plaza. Our team of experienced dentists, hygienists, and support staff share a single mission: to make every patient feel genuinely cared for.

We believe dental care should be accessible, affordable, and always delivered with warmth — which is why we offer flexible payment plans, direct insurance billing, and participate in the CDCP.
