Need a dentist

[KuruptEX]

The title pretty much sums up what I need. Well... my wife has her wisdom teeth coming in, and need a dentist. I have a nice insurance coverage. I'm located in crescent heights so somewhere relatively near there.

[supe]

I recommend Alpha Dental in Chinook Mall. My work deals with a lot of dentist offices and they are by far the best in terms of service. It has a very clean and spa like atmosphere. Being in a mall is also kind of nice too.

There are a couple dentists on Beyond.

Jeff Type-R has a practice in Ogden
B18C (full disclosure: he's my brother) is located in the Merchant Law building (formerly Deerfoot 17) on Deerfoot and 17 Ave SE.
I think his name is VW_Evo (??) and I think he's a dentist too.

VWEvo is the beyond name and yes he is a dentist. Definately a great person to go with.

I second B18C- a couple years ago my wisdom teeth were coming in side ways and he referred me to dr. Kroech(sp?) for extraction. Since then I have been back for regular cleanings and all the staff I have dealt with were very friendly and professional.

[Hallowed_point]

I highly, highly recommend you see Dr.Wade Foster @ Arriva 1111 Olympic Way SE. Him and his team and unbelievable.

[slowy]

Dr. Kellen Smith
Edge of downtown, young friendly staff and environment. Yet unbelievably professional and explains everything.

+1 VWEvo - Dr Dhesi @ Ranchlands Dental. He's the man.

[max_boost]

Can't go wrong with all 3 OG Beyonders. Pick one based on distance then haha

I'm thinking of changing dentists as I'm typing here with half a root canal complete bc my dentist couldn't find my other canal. I am most displeased.

BUMP ******


Looking for a dentist to do some specialty work - roots etc. Want someone with experience AND also someone who uses lasers in their office for deep root work, etc. Lasers are amazing tools, but I understand they wont replace a drill.

I am willing to travel out of town as well if it means better rates (as I plan on spending $5-10k in the next few years).

Also, CERC crowns or gold? I have been told conflicting stories of both in terms of which is meant as a "lifetime" crown.

CEREC is just the fancy 3D printer that mills ceramic crowns. As far whether ceramic or gold is better, most dentists will tell you that gold is the gold standard and has the best track record for lasting a long time. But with that said, modern ceramics have come a long way and can be really good too. But for most people, the main consideration is that they want something that looks like a normal tooth, so the decision is easy - ceramic.

Either way, there's no such thing as a lifetime crown, and I would exercise caution with any health practitioner that makes promises about any medical procedure or product that lasts for life.

I go to brisebois dental as well.
I did my crown there very thorough and they had some crazy mri xray type machine.
