Dr. Michael Schecter
Dr. Michael Schecter
Owner & Dentist, Rooted Dental
With over 20 years of experience, Dr. Michael Schecter brings a unique blend of technical precision, innovation, and holistic care to every aspect of his dentistry. After spending a year practicing and traveling in New Zealand, he returned to his hometown of Toronto with a renewed perspective and a deepened commitment to integrative, patient-centered care.
Dr. Schecter’s clinical expertise lies in implant dentistry and full-mouth restoration, helping patients restore confidence, comfort, and long-term oral health. He was among the first dentists in Canada to focus on ceramic implants, training with Z-System before their approval in the country. His advanced work with two-piece zirconia implants combines the reliability of traditional implants with the biocompatibility and aesthetic advantages of ceramic materials.
As a biological dentist, Dr. Schecter emphasizes prevention, minimal toxicity, and the connection between oral and overall health. He integrates alternative remedies, organic materials, and gentle healing methods into personalized treatment plans, always tailored to the individual needs of his patients.
Dr. Schecter remains active in continuing education, attending lectures and workshops through the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) and other leading organizations in biological dentistry.
At Rooted Dental, his vision is to create a practice where care runs deeper — blending science, artistry, and compassion to support whole-body wellness and deliver results that last a lifetime.

Z-Systems Ceramic Implants
Exclusively in York from Dr. Michael Schecter
The Only FDA Approved 100 % Metal Free Implants, Superior to Titanium Implants in Many Areas:
More natural.
Bones and gums integrate better with zirconium oxide ceramics.
Healthier.
Z-SYSTEMS implants are metal-free, biocompatible, conduct neither heat nor electrical energy, and cause no irritation to the immune system.
More sustainable.
Less plaque accretion than on titanium. This reduces the risk of perimplantitis as well as cardiovascular diseases and strokes.
Stronger.
Ceramic is much stronger than titanium.
More aesthetic.
Thanks to the white material, no gray shadows are visible even with thin or receding gums.
More visible.
Ceramic implants are opaque to X-rays, and easier to recognize in critical situations.
What Is A Dental Implant?
The implant body or post is the portion of the implant that is inserted into the jawbone. The implant body integrates with the jawbone and becomes the anchor for the new tooth.
The implant abutment is the portion of the dental implant inside the crown. Sometimes the abutment is created with the implant body as one piece. Other times, it is separate and attached to the implant with a screw. The abutment shapes the gum tissue and supports the crown.
The dental implant crown is the portion of the dental implant you see, but if done correctly, no one can tell it is not a natural tooth. The crown is bonded or cemented to the implant abutment and is commonly made of a ceramic or zirconia material because of its naturally white color and strength.
