Unionville is one of the most distinctive and well-loved communities in the Greater Toronto Area a neighbourhood with genuine heritage character, strong community identity, and families who have called it home for generations. It is also a neighbourhood where finding the right family dentist is not just a practical decision but a long-term one: the practice you choose becomes a part of your family's life for years, often decades.

This guide is written specifically for Unionville residents. It covers what dental options are available in and around Unionville, what to look for when choosing a practice, how to reach a dental office conveniently from Unionville's different sub-areas, and why Hwy7 Family Dentistry has become the dental home of choice for families across the Unionville community.


Is There a Dentist in Unionville, Ontario?

Yes Unionville has several dental practices either within the community or immediately adjacent to it along the Highway 7 East and Main Street corridors.

Yelp's August 2026 guide to the best dentists near Main Street Unionville lists practices including Markham Dental Smiles, Forestbrook Dental, Dentistry On 7, and Dentistry at Vitality Health all of which serve the Unionville community from locations along the Highway 7 East corridor or in nearby Markham neighbourhoods. Yelp


The most important thing to understand when choosing a dentist in Unionville is the geography of the community itself. Unionville is not a single street it encompasses several distinct sub-areas, each with slightly different proximity considerations:

Unionville Village / Old Unionville / Main Street Unionville The historic core of the community centred on Main Street Unionville, which runs north from Highway 7 between Kennedy Road and Warden Avenue. Residents here have the most walkable access to the Main Street Dental Team at 104 Main Street, as well as being a short drive to the Hwy 7 East dental corridor.


Upper Unionville and Angus Glen The northern residential expansion of Unionville bounded approximately by Kennedy Road to the west, Highway 7 to the south, and Major Mackenzie Drive to the north. Residents here most naturally access dental practices via Kennedy Road south to Hwy 7 East.


Highway 7 East Corridor (Unionville's Main Arterial) The stretch of Hwy 7 East between Kennedy Road and McCowan Road is Unionville's primary commercial corridor and the location of the highest concentration of dental practices serving the community. This corridor includes Hwy7 Family Dentistry at 4560 Hwy 7 East, Unit 500 one of the most centrally positioned practices for residents across all Unionville sub-areas.


Where Is Hwy7 Family Dentistry Located?

Hwy7 Family Dentistry is located at 4560 Highway 7 East, Unit 500, Unionville, Markham, Ontario, L3R 1M5.

The practice sits directly on Highway 7 East the main arterial road through Unionville making it accessible from every direction:


From Unionville Village / Main Street Unionville: Head south on Main Street Unionville to Highway 7 East, then turn east. The practice is approximately 2–3 minutes by car.

From Upper Unionville / Angus Glen: Head south on Kennedy Road to Highway 7 East, then turn east. Approximately 5–7 minutes by car.

From Highway 7 East corridor (east side): The practice is directly on Highway 7 East. Approaching from McCowan Road, head west on Hwy 7 you will find us on the south side.

About Unionville: A Community Worth Caring For

Understanding who lives in Unionville helps explain why dental care here is genuinely important to get right.


Unionville was first settled in the early 1800s by settlers of German-American origin led by William Berczy, and the community has maintained a remarkable sense of continuity and identity through two centuries of growth. Unionville is a historic village and neighbourhood within the City of Markham not a separate municipality incorporated into the City of Markham in 1971 but maintaining its own distinctive identity, particularly along the heritage streetscape of Main Street Unionville. Hwy7 Dentistry

Today, Unionville is home to an established, diverse community. Heritage homes along Main Street are occupied by long-tenured families and professionals who value community roots.


The surrounding residential areas Upper Unionville, Angus Glen, Cachet are home to professionals, growing families, and a significant East and South Asian community that has made Unionville one of the most culturally rich communities in York Region.

This diversity of residents means that a truly good Unionville dental practice needs to serve patients across a wide spectrum of needs from a grandmother managing complex restorations, to a toddler at their first appointment, to a young professional seeking cosmetic improvement before a career milestone, to a family recently arrived from abroad navigating Ontario's dental coverage landscape for the first time.


At Hwy7 Family Dentistry, we serve exactly this community every age, every background, every dental need, under one roof in the heart of Unionville.

The Unionville Difference: Why Local Dental Care Matters

Choosing a dental practice located in Unionville is not simply about convenience though convenience matters enormously. It is about finding a practice that understands the community it serves.


Hwy7 Family Dentistry has built its patient base from Unionville and the surrounding Markham neighbourhoods over years of consistent, quality care. Our patients include families who have been with us since their children were infants and are now bringing those children's children. They include seniors in the heritage homes along the Hwy 7 corridor who appreciate a team that takes time to explain every finding and respects their long dental history. They include young professionals in the new developments around Markham Centre who need flexible scheduling around demanding work schedules.


Choosing a dentist near Unionville one that is genuinely accessible, accepts new patients, and provides comprehensive care under one roof makes the difference between a family that attends dental appointments consistently and one that perpetually delays. At 4560 Hwy 7 East, we serve the entire Unionville community at the centre of its most accessible corridor. Dentistry In Markham


Our team also reflects Unionville's multicultural character. Hwy7 Family Dentistry serves patients in multiple languages helping Unionville's diverse community communicate about their dental health comfortably and confidently at every appointment.


Hours and Accessibility at Our Unionville Location
