Your first visit to a family dentist should set the stage for years of healthy smiles. At Schonsee Dental, we are a modern family dental clinic in NW Edmonton, serving families and patients of all ages with gentle, patient-centred care in a comfortable, welcoming environment.
Our Approach to Family Dental Care
At your first visit, you can expect a warm welcome and a focus on preventive care and your comfort. We take the time to get to know you, understand your concerns and goals, and help you feel relaxed at each step. Our practice puts patient comfort, communication, and trust at the centre of everything we do.
Comprehensive Dental Services in One Edmonton Clinic
Our clinic offers a full range of dental services under one roof, including checkups, cleanings, children’s dentistry, emergency care, restorative, cosmetic, and orthodontic treatments. Whether you are coming in for a routine cleaning or want to explore options like teeth whitening, Invisalign, or dental implants, your entire family’s needs are covered.
What Happens During a First Visit?
During your first checkup, our team will perform a comprehensive examination of your teeth, gums, and oral tissues. We use advanced digital X-rays to detect issues invisible to the naked eye, such as cavities between teeth and bone loss. A gentle cleaning helps keep your teeth and gums in optimal condition, and we always review your existing dental work.
Gum health assessments, periodontal screening, and oral cancer screening are included in your checkup to give a full picture of your oral health.
Children's Dentistry: What Young Families Can Expect
If you are bringing your child, you can expect gentle, educational care. We provide exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, sealants, mouthguards, and space maintainers for infants through teens, all in one visit when needed. We recommend a first visit for kids by age one or within six months of their first tooth.
For children who feel nervous, we help them feel at ease with a positive, patient approach. Nitrous oxide sedation is available for those who need extra support during treatment. Our team is experienced in behaviour-friendly pacing and parent coaching at each visit to make the experience positive for your child.
Comfort, Communication, and Transparency
We understand that visiting the dentist can cause anxiety for some people or children. Our team focuses on patient comfort and clear communication at every appointment. For anxious children, we offer gentle explanations and move at their pace, taking breaks and explaining each step. We offer sedation options, including nitrous oxide, when needed and appropriate.
Our approach is rooted in transparency. We discuss all treatment options and expected outcomes so you always know what to expect and what comes next.
Consultations, Insurance Options, and New Patient Offers
If you are interested in learning more about cosmetic or restorative options before committing to a treatment, we offer free, no-obligation consultations. You can explore services like Invisalign or implants and receive honest assessments to help you plan confidently.
We follow the Alberta Dental Fee Guide, accept most insurance plans with direct billing, and welcome CDCP (Canadian Dental Care Plan) patients. New patients who complete an exam, X-rays, and cleaning receive a $50 Visa card as a thank you for choosing our clinic.
Convenient Hours and Emergency Availability
Our Edmonton dental clinic offers evening and weekend appointments to fit your busy family’s schedule, as well as same-day emergency care for urgent dental needs. We operate with extended hours 5 days a week to ensure you can access care when you need it.
