Cornerbrook Smiles Dental TeamOctober 8, 20264 min read

At Cornerbrook Smiles Dental in Calgary, you can expect a wide range of general dentistry services designed for every stage of life. From your child's first cleaning to regular checkups for adults and seniors, we offer a family-friendly and welcoming environment in the northeast Calgary communities of Cornerstone, Cornerbrook, Redstone, Skyview Ranch, Cityscape, and Livingston.

Our Range of General Dentistry Services

We offer general, family, emergency, cosmetic, restorative, orthodontic, children's, gum health, and sedation dental care, with an emphasis on personalized care and clear communication. Our clinic delivers regular checkups, dental cleanings, exams, fillings, preventive screenings, oral cancer screenings, and more.

Convenient Location and Hours

Our dental clinic is conveniently located in Cornerstone, northeast Calgary, serving a broad range of communities. We are open seven days a week from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm so that you can fit dental care into your busy schedule. New patients are always welcome, and we strive to offer same-day emergency care whenever possible.

Prevention and Routine Care

Routine dental visits help catch dental problems early, allowing us to address them before they turn into bigger or more painful issues. Most people benefit from a professional dental cleaning every six months, though those with a history of gum disease or heavier plaque buildup may be advised to come in more frequently.

Dental cleanings at our clinic are thorough and comfortable, using modern tools and techniques to remove plaque, tartar, and stains that regular brushing and flossing can't reach. We also provide fluoride treatments and sealants for children to help protect growing smiles.

Your First Visit and Patient Experience

If you are visiting us for the first time, we take the time to listen to your concerns and history before performing a gentle, thorough exam. Any necessary digital X-rays will be taken using modern technology that uses significantly less radiation than traditional methods. Every exam includes an oral cancer screening, which is a painless part of your checkup.

We explain your options clearly after your assessment and provide a transparent estimate before any treatment begins. Honest, open communication is a cornerstone of the care you will receive at our clinic.

Comfort, Sedation and Anxiety-Free Dentistry

Your comfort is our priority, and for patients who are nervous or anxious about dental visits, we offer several sedation options including nitrous oxide, oral sedation, and IV sedation. These options help ensure you feel relaxed and in control throughout your visit.

We also use gentle techniques and are committed to delivering care without judgment, whether you're a regular patient or haven't visited a dentist in years.

Pediatric and Family Dentistry

Children's dentistry at our office is designed to be both gentle and fun. We make every effort to help kids feel safe and comfortable, and we love building positive first experiences that support a lifetime of good oral habits. From preventive care to cavity fillings, your child's dental needs are in caring hands.

Restorative and Cosmetic Care

We offer cosmetic dentistry services such as teeth whitening, veneers, and bonding to help you achieve a brighter smile, and we always ensure you know what to expect before any treatment begins. Our restorative options include fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures, and dental implants to repair or replace damaged or missing teeth. Composite fillings are available for a discreet, natural-looking result.

For gum disease and chronic bad breath, we diagnose and treat every stage of gum health concern with proven, comfortable methods. Modern technology and a personalized plan help us protect your progress.

Emergency and Urgent Dental Care

Dental emergencies can happen at any time, which is why we offer same-day appointments and accept walk-ins when possible. Our team is prepared to treat severe toothaches, chipped or broken teeth, lost fillings and crowns, knocked-out teeth, abscesses, as well as severe sensitivity, bleeding gums, and jaw pain.

During an emergency visit, we listen to your concerns and explain all viable treatment options, giving you a clear estimate before starting. Sedation is available if you need extra comfort.

Insurance and Payment Options

We make payment and insurance simple by offering direct billing with most major providers. Most insurance plans cover routine exams, cleanings, and fillings in full or with a small copay. Free consultations are available for dental implants, Invisalign, and wisdom teeth removal.

Your Next Steps

We use modern dental technology throughout your visit for efficient and comfortable care. Our clinic welcomes everyone, from toddlers to grandparents, in a warm and judgement-free atmosphere. You can book your appointment by calling (403) 300-4444 or scheduling online through our website. We look forward to helping you achieve and maintain your healthiest, happiest smile in northeast Calgary!
