Alder Dental · Calgary · New patients welcome
A place to settle in, be heard and understand your care. Everyday dentistry in Calgary, with room for you.
A little more room
Before we look at your teeth, we listen. Tell us what brings you in, what has changed or what would make a visit easier. There is room for the worry you have been carrying, too.
We explain what we find, talk through the options and discuss timing and fees before you decide. We can agree a signal for a pause. You remain part of the conversation throughout your care.
See what a first visit involves01 / Care, at your pace
A regular visit. A question about a tooth. Something unexpected. Find a starting point below; you do not need to know the treatment before the conversation.
Explore all treatmentsA closer look at your teeth, gums and everyday oral health.
A dental exam checks for decay, gum concerns and changes to existing dental work. Whether you are keeping up with care or returning after a break, begin with an examination and a plan for your next visit.
Remove buildup and find a home-care routine that works for you.
Professional cleaning removes plaque and hardened tartar. Tartar cannot be removed by brushing alone. Your hygiene visit also makes room for questions about bleeding gums, sensitivity and daily care. Start with a cleaning assessment; the recommended frequency depends on your needs.
Repair a cavity and help restore the tooth’s shape and function.
A filling replaces tooth structure lost to decay. If you have sensitivity, a damaged filling or a concern about a tooth, we begin with an assessment. We explain the material, alternatives and fees before treatment is agreed.
Cover and support a tooth that needs more than a filling.
A crown fits over a tooth to restore its shape and help protect weakened structure. It may be considered for a broken tooth or a tooth with a large filling. Begin with an examination to understand whether a crown suits your tooth.
Explore a change to your smile, with your dental health in mind.
A consultation starts with what you would like to change about the colour, shape or appearance of your teeth. We assess your oral health and explain suitable options, their limits and costs. Bring your questions; you do not need to choose treatment in advance.
A prompt assessment for tooth pain, damage or an unexpected concern.
A toothache, broken tooth or lost filling can need timely attention. An emergency visit focuses on assessing the concern and discussing next steps. For a real urgent problem, contact a dental provider promptly; this demonstration cannot arrange care.
Not sure what you need? That is a good place to begin.

Fictional team · Generated portraits
Dentist
Maya begins with your questions, then walks you through the examination findings. Her approach to preventive and restorative care centres on explaining the options and giving you time to decide.
Dental hygienist
Olivia makes cleanings a conversation about your gums, comfort and daily routine. She helps you work through brushing and interdental care, with small, practical changes you can use at home.
Patient care coordinator
Samira helps you prepare for a visit, understand appointment arrangements and find answers to practical questions. Tell her about access needs or anything that would help you feel more comfortable.
04 / A gentler beginning
Come with your questions, even if it has been a while. We start with a conversation and an examination, then work through what comes next together.
Share your priorities, medical history and medications. Tell us about any worries or access needs, and agree a pause signal if that helps.
Your dentist examines your teeth, gums and mouth. X-rays are recommended only when needed, and we explain the findings with you.
Discuss any recommended care, alternatives, timing and fees. Ask your questions before deciding how to proceed.
Bring a little preparation
Bring your medication list, benefits information if you have it, and the questions you have been saving.
Sample testimonials · Illustrative words, not real patient reviews.
“I had time to ask the question I nearly kept to myself. Knowing what would happen next made all the difference.”
“The options were explained in words I understood, with room to think before making a decision.”
05 / Before you arrive
From cleanings and treatment choices to nerves and fees, a little clarity can make the next step feel easier.
The interval depends on your teeth, gums, oral-health history and how quickly buildup returns. Your dentist and hygienist will recommend a schedule after assessing your needs. A first visit is a useful starting point if it has been a while.
A filling repairs an area of lost tooth structure. A crown covers the tooth and may be considered when it needs more support, such as after a large break or with a large existing filling. An examination helps determine which options are appropriate.
Not necessarily. Recommendations depend on your history, examination findings and current needs. We explain why an X-ray would be useful before taking it.
No. Begin with what you would like to explore. The conversation covers your oral health, possible options, their limitations and fees. A consultation does not commit you to treatment or promise a particular result.
Contact a dental provider promptly and describe what has happened so they can advise on the next step and appointment availability. Do not wait for a routine checkup. This fictional website is not monitored and cannot provide emergency care.
Tell us what you would like us to know before we begin. We can talk through each step, agree a hand signal for a pause and make space for questions. You can also tell us if you prefer less explanation during treatment.
Yes. We discuss the proposed care, alternatives, timing and fees before treatment. Benefits vary by plan; bring your information if you would like to discuss coverage. No fees or coverage are quoted by this demonstration.
