West Family Dental

Endodontic treatment (root canal) is necessary when the soft tissue inside a tooth becomes inflamed or infected. We strive to provide comfortable treatment for all dental procedures, including root canals.

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots placed into your jaw to hold a replacement tooth, bridge, or denture. They are more tooth-saving than traditional bridgework. We provide IV sedation for this procedure if desired and use Nobel Biocare implants.

Invisalign straightens teeth using a series of clear, virtually invisible aligners. Treatment usually takes less than a year, with visits every 6-8 weeks. Aligners are worn 20-22 hours per day and are removable for eating and brushing.

We assess each patient to determine the best whitening option, including take home bleaching. Whitening can get your smile looking its best, and we look for procedures that are fast, convenient, long lasting, low sensitivity, and proven safe and effective.

We provide all general dentistry services including cleaning and check-ups, tooth coloured fillings, amalgam removal, crowns, bridges and veneers, dental implants, replacing damaged or lost fillings, extractions including wisdom teeth, root canals, braces and Invisalign, IV sedation, sleep apnea appliances, custom sports mouthguards, and cosmetic dentistry.

We offer orthodontics at our Lethbridge dental office. We use self ligating brackets which do not require ligating elastic bands. Invisalign is also an option for some patients seeking a discreet orthodontic option.

Sedation is a great option for nervous adults, wisdom tooth extraction, and implant surgeries. We offer orally administered sedation, nitrous sedation, and IV Sedation.

Accidents happen! If you have an urgent need for a dentist, give us a call. We handle accidents, toothaches, and broken teeth.

Our team of professionally trained dental hygienists provide scaling, root planing, polishing and fluoride treatments at intervals suitable to your personal needs. The primary purpose is to prevent the progression of periodontal (gum) diseases.

A Sleep Apnea Dental Appliance may be a helpful, non-surgical solution to sleeping problems. We offer complimentary consultations for this.

At West Family Dental we place mercury-free fillings. Ask us about replacing your old amalgam fillings.

Denture stabilization, also known as Single Day Implants, stabilizes the existing lower denture by anchoring it into place using mini dental implants (MDIs). The procedure can be completed in a matter of hours.

We use digital dental imaging technology. Digital X-rays are immediately captured and stored as electronic files, using small amounts of radiation, eliminating wait time, and providing greater enhancement and diagnostic ability.
