At Smile Zone Dental, we are proud to offer general, family, emergency, cosmetic, restorative, and sedation dentistry services for the Edmonton community. Our clinic welcomes children, adults, seniors, and patients who need urgent dental attention. We focus on comfortable, patient-friendly care for families and new patients alike, ensuring every visit feels relaxed and positive.

Serving Edmonton and Surrounding Neighbourhoods

Our dental clinic is in Garneau, close to the University of Alberta, Whyte Avenue, Old Strathcona, and South Edmonton. We’re easy to find and happy to serve patients from these communities and beyond.

What Family Dentistry Covers at Smile Zone Dental

Family dentistry means offering dental care for everyone. From the youngest child’s first tooth to adults and seniors needing restorative solutions. Our services include dental cleanings, oral exams, children’s dentistry, preventive care, sealants and fluoride, space maintainers, and dedicated appointment slots for families who want to come together.

Gentle, Flexible Care: Open When You Need Us

We’re open seven days a week, including evenings and weekends, so appointments can fit into your family’s busy schedule. If a dental emergency arises, we offer same-day emergency care to get you and your loved ones relief as soon as possible.

Easy Payments, Direct Billing, and Affordable Fees

We provide direct insurance billing to make visits simpler and more convenient. We accept major Canadian and government dental plans.

Treatment Options for All Ages Under One Roof

Every smile gets a tailored plan. With over thirty treatments available, you have access to day-to-day care (like cleanings and exams), children’s services, preventive treatments, and cosmetic or restorative options all in one place.

  • Dental Cleanings for polished, healthy smiles
  • Comprehensive Oral Exams using digital imaging
  • Oral Cancer Screening as part of your checkup
  • Restorative work: implants, dentures, crowns, bridges
  • Preventive child care including sealants, fluoride, and space maintainers

Dental Cleanings and Oral Exams

Our dental cleanings are gentle and efficient, designed to deliver polished, healthy smiles in under an hour. And adult cleanings include a complimentary teeth whitening kit. Comprehensive oral exams use digital imaging and a thorough soft-tissue review to spot potential problems early, making it easier to keep costs and treatments minimal.

Early Dental Visits and Ongoing Preventive Care

It’s never too early to focus on oral health. Bringing your child in for early visits helps establish good habits and ensures that their smiles stay healthy as they grow. Early dental care and consistent prevention lay the foundation for healthy smiles into adulthood.

Appointments Built Around Your Family’s Needs

We help make visits easier with flexible scheduling, family block appointments (so everyone is seen during one visit), and reminder systems, so nothing gets missed.

Children’s Dentistry: Prevention and Positive Experiences

We offer children’s treatments like sealants and fluoride, which provide a simple shield against cavities. If your child loses a baby tooth early, we may recommend a space maintainer to keep their teeth growing in the right direction. Our team uses a calm, friendly approach, anxiety-friendly options like sedation if needed, and a focus on playfulness so children have a positive experience every time.

Comfort, Modern Technology, and One Trusted Team

From digital scans to soft-tissue lasers, we use modern tools for gentler visits and better long-term results. You’ll recognize the same faces each time, as our small, united team serves all our families. From toddlers to grandparents.

We’re built for comfort, from the temperature and lighting to the words we use. Every detail is tuned so your visit feels less like a chore and more like care.

Honest, Transparent, and Friendly Care

We make dental care transparent for you: honest quotes, no pressure to proceed with unnecessary treatment, and most treatment plans come with more than one option. You always know what to expect and can make informed choices for your family.
