We are a close-knit family of dentists and professional dental staff located centrally in Erie Canal, a beautiful, thriving village in Fairport, NY. Smiles on the Canal is a Pediatric and Family Dentistry clinic which was founded in 1991. Having been in the business for almost three decades, we have our database of dedicated patients who trust us with their dental hygiene.

We have served several generations of families through the years and will help many more generations in the years to come. We cater to the dental needs to people of all ages, from children who need early intervention to the aged who need dentures. We have adopted several changes in how we work based on technological advancements, and hence offer the best-in-class service to all our patients, old and new.
Services
Founded in 1991, we are a thriving family dental practice located in beautiful Fairport, New York on the iconic Erie Canal. We have both a Pediatric Dentist and a General Dentist on staff. We are able to serve your entire family, including toddlers, children, teenagers and adults, and we have treated multiple generations of families in our dental practice throughout the past several decades.
We understand that making the decision which dentist to choose for your family is an important one. Our dental office in Fairport, NY has been providing high quality dental care for generations of families since 1991. Our general dentist, Dr. Abner De los Santos, and our team of dental hygienists, provide well-rounded dental care for our adult patients.
Ideally, a restoration (fixing a tooth) for a child should leave the tooth strong and free of pain. Compromised, or less-than-ideal, treatments often result in failure of the restoration, leading to additional cost, time and inconvenience for a family. Teeth with large cavities, often involving the nerve or very broken down, are best protected with a crown.
Are you unhappy with your teeth? Do you feel awkward to smile because of stained or chipped teeth? Do you want to improve your smile? Then come to Smiles on the Canal, where we can give you a confident smile by using dental veneers! Dental veneers are also called porcelain veneers or dental porcelain laminates.
A good dental care regime includes brushing twice a day, rinsing after every meal, flossing and regular visits to your dentist. But sometimes, even after you take good care of your teeth, you become a victim of teeth infections. When an infection reaches your tooth's root, it can cause a lot of pain and the loss of your tooth.

Friendly, caring and professional. They kept my son safe and relaxed while they corrected his issue. Best pediatric dentist I've ever used.

First visit for my son and all the staff was amazing. Despite my 2 1/2 year old being very difficult, they showed him so much kindness and compassion. Dr. Mapes was amazing with him as well! We Will highly recommend your office to everyone!

This was my first visit with Smiles, being somewhat new to the area. They were incredibly friendly, answered every question I had while be friendly and professional. Really happy to have found them, probably the best group I’ve met with, especially Serena and Dr. D

I’ve had a really great experience at this dentist. All the staff have been kind and helped to explain everything. The visits are just the right amount of time (it doesn’t take a long time, but I never felt rushed). Very happy that my family found Smiles on the Canal.

Absolutely wonderful. The staff are all super friendly and welcoming. I have had a terrible saga of tooth issues the last few months at a different place. I called smiles and they got me in a soon as possible and are working on getting all my tooth issues fixed.

Smiles Dental is AMAZING! I have brought my six-month-old for a fused tooth and my two-year-old for a cleaning. They couldn’t have been more accommodating, including giving me a room to change their diapers. My two-year-old loved to get her teeth cleaned because they made it a fun experience. Highly recommend Smiles for any young children!!

My kids and I had a wonderful experience here. The office is beautiful and well-maintained. Every staff member we interacted with was great. All 3 of my children were new patients and scheduled for the same day, about an hour apart with different hygienists. Each hygienist was friendly, knowledgeable and professional. We had anticipated being there a good portion of the day. To our surprise, the kids were pulled in one-by-one, back to back and we were out of there sooner than expected. Very pleased with Smiles on the Canal! I have already recommended this office to a few people!

I love this place. I found this place because I had to take my two toddlers to the dentist and after seeing how they treat their patients I switched dentist myself. Had my first visit today and had to bring my three girls ( 3 months old, 18 months old and a 4 year old). The staff was very friendly and one of the ladies even held by baby so I could finish getting my teeth clean. I felt very welcome and happy being there. Thank you
