Frequently Asked Questions
No referral is required. Simply call us or book online and we'll get you scheduled as quickly as possible.
Your first visit typically takes 60–90 minutes. This gives us enough time for a thorough exam, X-rays if needed, a professional cleaning, and a full discussion of your oral health.
You're not alone, and we're here for you. Our team is trained to work with anxious patients. We offer nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and other sedation options, and we always go at your pace.
Absolutely. We welcome patients of all ages, from toddlers to seniors. We have a kid-friendly team that makes young patients feel comfortable and even excited about their visits.
Call us immediately. We accept same-day emergency walk-ins and always prioritize patients in pain. If you're a new patient with a dental emergency, we will find a way to see you.
Yes. We have five dentists on our team, including both male and female dentists. Let us know your preference when booking and we'll do our best to accommodate you.
We recommend a first dental exam by your child's first tooth or first birthday — whichever comes first. This early visit gives us a chance to check for cavities, review key milestones of dental development, and help you establish great habits from the start.
We keep the first appointment friendly and low-pressure. We'll do a visual exam of your child's gums and teeth, assess their comfort level, and may take X-rays if appropriate. Some procedures may be held for a second visit to keep the first experience positive. Parents are welcome to wait in reception to help your child build their own relationship with the dentist.
Every six months is the standard recommendation for most children. This schedule helps us prevent cavities, catch any issues at their earliest stage, and monitor development. We may recommend more frequent visits for children who are more cavity-prone.
Yes. We bill your insurance company directly and collect any remaining balance from you at the time of treatment. We also accept Alberta Child Health Benefits (ACHB) and First Nations Non Insured Health Benefits (NIHB).
Baby teeth play a crucial role in your child's development. They help children speak clearly, chew naturally, and hold space so permanent teeth can erupt in the right positions. Untreated cavities in baby teeth can cause pain, infection, and can affect the incoming permanent teeth. Your child will keep some primary teeth until age 9–13.
At least twice a day — morning and before bed. The most important brushing is the one before sleep, as saliva flow decreases overnight, making teeth more vulnerable to bacteria.
For children under 2, use a smear no larger than a grain of rice. For ages 2–5, use a pea-sized amount. Always use a toothpaste recommended by the Canadian Dental Association. Young children cannot brush effectively on their own — help them, and remind them to spit out excess toothpaste rather than swallowing.
As soon as your child has teeth that touch each other, usually between ages 2 and 6. Tooth brushing alone cannot clean between teeth, and cavities between teeth are very common in children. Most children develop the dexterity to floss independently around age 10.
A well-balanced diet is the foundation of healthy teeth. Limit sugary snacks — the more frequently your child snacks, the greater the risk of tooth decay. Healthy snack options include vegetables, low-fat yogurt, and low-fat cheese. Avoid letting your child sip on juice or sweetened drinks throughout the day.
