Another happy (if you can even use that term when referring to a dental clinic appointment!) visit with Jenn Silver and her crew. I have NEVER felt so comfortable at a dentist in my entire life. Everyone, from reception to the hygienist, is wonderful. And best of all, in my particular circumstance, Jenn and her team were able to provide a lower cost alternative for what could have been an expensive problem.

FAQs

Most dentists are “general” practitioners. That is, they provide comprehensive oral care to people of all ages. However, if there’s an extenuating circumstance where extra technology or resources are needed to treat a certain condition, dental clinic specialists are able to provide additional support. The most common types of specialists include:

  • Endodontists
  • Orthodontists
  • Oral surgeons
  • Periodontists

Fortunately, general dentists like the ones at our family practice in Calgary are able to provide routine treatments ranging from cleanings to root canals all under one roof.

Dentists are oral health providers who focus on preventative, therapeutic, and restorative treatment for your teeth and the surrounding tissues (including gums and bone). They’re also able to prescribe medications, screen for diseases, refer to other types of specialists, and perform biopsies.

When you have a health problem related to your mouth, you would want to see a dentist instead of a traditional medical doctor. Although the mouth and body are closely related, medical facilities are typically not set up to provide dental-specific types of care.

Dentists also offer treatments related to cosmetic procedures, TMJ treatments, orthodontic therapy, certain types of (oral) surgery, growth modification, and so much more! If you have sleep apnea, you can also see a dentist who is trained in sleep medicine to provide an oral sleep appliance.

Some of our most common dental clinic services include checkups, cleanings, X-rays, gum disease treatment, tooth extractions, fillings, crowns, bridges, and dental implants. If you require any specific type of care, we’ll review the treatment options available so that you can play a key part in your care planning process.

How often you should go to the dentist will depend on your medical and dental health. Routine dental care is recommended every 6-12 months for cleanings and a check-up. If you have additional dental needs, or you are high risk for decay and gum disease, 3-4 month appointment intervals may be recommended.

Both general dentists and cosmetic dentists offer all types of dental services. However, the difference between a cosmetic and general dentist is that cosmetic dentists focus their expertise and technique on cosmetic treatments like teeth whitening, dental veneers, composite bonding, tooth recontouring, and even short-term braces.

Essentially, cosmetic dental procedures are used to enhance your smile’s appearance rather than treat specific issues like decay. But if you do have a tooth that needs to be repaired, we can use cosmetic materials to design a crown or filling that blends in and makes your smile look whole again.

If you’re considering a cosmetic treatment, contact us to schedule a consultation. We can help you create a plan that optimizes your natural characteristics and reduces the need for extra treatment in the future.

Dental care costs vary depending on where you live, the type of dentist that you’re seeing, your age, and if you have dental insurance. For instance, a checkup and cleaning for a child is usually priced lower than that for an adult.

What most people don’t realize is that paying out of pocket (without insurance) for preventative services that help to reduce the risk of oral disease is more affordable than avoiding dental checkups and only seeing a dentist when there’s a problem. Issues such as tooth decay are best prevented, not just because it’s cheaper, but because it’s healthier for your smile longterm.

If for any reason you need a specific treatment, we’ll review all of the costs with you well in advance. That way you’re never caught off guard by the price of dental care! If other options are available, we’ll review them with you so that you know what other choices there are. If you’re enrolled in an insurance plan, be sure to bring a copy of your card to your next visit!

Dental procedures are categorized into different service areas. For example, “cosmetic”, “preventative”, “restorative”, or even “major.” These labels affect how your treatment is filed toward insurance and how your benefits cover them.

Preventative treatments include:

  • Regular six-month dental checkups
  • Exams
  • Cleaning
  • X-rays
  • Other services like fluoride treatment or sealants

Each one plays a key role in preventing and intercepting disease as early as possible so that you don’t need serious dental work later on.

Elective procedures include:

This doesn’t mean cosmetic approaches to care don’t also include restorative fillings and crowns.

Major treatments often encompass things like:

More often than not, major treatments are the last solution available for stabilizing your oral health. Each dental procedure is used alongside the rest to help create a healthy, harmonious smile.

Yes, you can absolutely see a dentist without insurance! Dental insurance is a nice benefit to have, but it’s not required to see a dentist if you require services. In fact, paying to see a dentist every six months for routine preventative care can help you limit the amount of dental care costs in the future! Since most dental problems are preventable, regular checkups are a smart investment to make. If you add dental insurance at any time, just be sure to bring a copy of your card to your next visit. That way we can file claims on your behalf and limit any out of pocket expenses.

Understanding the price of dental care and the different types of treatment options available can help you stay in your budget and keep expenses to a minimum. If you require any type of therapeutic or restorative care, our team will review all of the options available with you so that you can make an educated decision about your smile’s future.

What to Expect

A Toothsome Tale of Finding the Right Dental Clinic

Once upon a time, there was a family of five who had just moved to the city and needed to find a new dental clinic. They had heard from their friends and neighbours about many dental offices in the area, but they were all unsure about which one to choose.

The father had been complaining about his toothache for days, so the mother decided to take matters into her own hands and find a dental clinic that could help them.

She started her search by looking on google and found many dental clinics searching different names like “dental practice,” “dental office,” and “dental clinic”.  She decided to make a list of all the dental clinics and check out their websites to see what services they offered.

After hours of research, the mother narrowed down her options to a few dental clinics that had the best reviews and offered the services they needed. One of the clinics that stood out to her was the Southcentre Dental Clinic. It had great reviews, and the website said that they offer a wide range of dental services.

The family agreed to go to the Southcentre Dental Clinic and make an appointment with a dentist. They arrived at the clinic and were immediately greeted by a friendly receptionist who took their information and asked them to fill out some dental records.

While they waited for their turn, the father was flipping through a magazine and saw an advertisement for dental surgeries. He turned to the mother and said, “I don’t think I need a dental surgeon. I just need someone to fix my toothache.”.  He obviously didn’t understand where he was.

The mother nodded in agreement, but she was still curious about the different dental specialties. She asked the receptionist if the Southcentre Dental Clinic had any specialists like an endodontist or an orthodontist.

The receptionist smiled and said, “No, we don’t have any dental specialists here. We only have general dentists who are capable of conducting dental practices and root canal treatments.”

The father looked relieved and said, “I don’t think I want anyone drilling into my tooth, but I guess if it needs to be done, it needs to be done.”

The mother agreed, and they were called into the dental unit for their appointments. The family was impressed by how clean and modern the dentist office was, and they were greeted by a friendly dentist who introduced himself and asked them about their dental concerns.

The dentist examined their teeth and suggested some treatments that needed to be done, including a root canal for the father’s tooth. The family was nervous, but the dentist put them at ease and explained the procedure step-by-step.

As the dentist worked on the father’s tooth, the kids were fascinated by the dental tools and equipment. They asked the dentist if he was the Tooth Fairy, and he chuckled and said, “No, I’m not the Tooth Fairy, but I can make sure that your teeth are healthy and strong.”

The family left the Southcentre Dental Clinic feeling relieved and grateful for the excellent dental care they received. They realized that finding a good dental clinic was not as difficult as they thought, and they were happy to have found one that they could rely on.

From that day forward, the family made regular appointments at the Southcentre Dental Clinic for their dental check-ups and treatments. They recommended the dental clinic to their friends and family, who were also impressed by the quality of care they received.

The Southcentre Dental Clinic became a staple in their lives, and they were happy to have found a dental clinic that they could trust. They never forgot the dentist who took care of them and even recommended him to anyone who asked for a good dentist.

In the end, the family learned that finding a good dental clinic was not just about the name or the specialties it offered, but about the quality of care and service that it provided.
