Thanks for mention. I actually work out of two inner city offices. Bridgeland Crossings Dental and 4th Street Dental. Both of my offices do accept insurance and we do follow the Alberta Dental Fee guide. Happy to help. If those locations don't work, let me know, I'm happy to refer to you a great dentist in your area, Calgary is full of some amazing dentists.

For my root canal (repeat as my original dentist missed a 4th root, common on that tooth) my new dentist sent me to Endo Perio on 17th ave SW and Dr Erin Mckenzie did a good job.
Always better to keep existing, natural (dead) tooth as a base. A good root canal might even last you decades.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Implants arent perfect in same sense.
I've been going to the same Dentist since I was a child, but I'm willing to swap dentists. I'm mostly interested in going to see GTS Jeff, because he's GTS Jeff. I also hate the dentist, get regularly lectured, hate drilling, numbing barely works.

I used to get cavities even with brushing 2x a day. Then I switched to brushing 1x day and a water pik with 10% hydrogen peroxide mix with water.
No cavities in years and my cleanings are always very easy now ... would highly recommend.
I went there and actually had my first bad experience out of dozens of specialists over ~15 years. They were very short with me, and didn't want to answer any of my questions - every time I asked something the tone of the response was like "I'm the expert, you're not" or "that's a dumb question"....yeah that's why I am asking questions. They didn't look at my extensive dental history at all before I arrived (it was all sent to them) which ended up causing numerous problems later on in the visit. I felt like I was annoying them just being there.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Anyway she looked at the tooth in question and after $400 of X-Rays and inspections said there is no way she could root canal that tooth. She offered for her husband (Periodontist) to also take a look but that would cost another $180 just for him to look at the area, so I declined. Finally she offered to take the entire tooth out with implant for ~$6500 and I declined that as well for obvious reasons. I went away with nothing but a huge bill. Wouldn't have used them even if they said they could do the root canal. My other dentists tried to get them to send the X-rays and eventually got them but it was like pulling teeth, so to speak, dealing with their office.
Fast forward a bit and I went to a much better (IMO) Endodontist (listed above) and he said he could root canal the tooth no problem and it would be a good result without losing the tooth. He couldn't understand why the other place wouldn't do it - he seemed a lot more experienced. Long story short I got the procedure done, he was right about everything, and I am in much better shape now.
YMMV obviously but that place happened to be the only place I've ever had a bad experience at and I (unfortunately) have to see various dental specialists multiple times a year.
I’ve officially switched to Archie Tang @B18C as well. Turns out he does sedation dentistry now so that was a no brainer. And since he lives down the street from me, drove me on the way, put me under, and fixed my shit up yesterday. Talk about VIP service!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

5 extractions, 2 bridges, couple of fillings and I barely remember it. Also took pics for me so I can gross out my kids and teach them to take care of their shit.

Are the pictures like in Horrible Bosses?
In my life, I've had basically every procedure possible, but I have managed to spread those out over the decades. I once had an endodontist and a periodontist. Good times.
My teeth are mostly boring now, just get a filling every couple years.

^haha, Archie is a good guy..... hard to get in to see him as much these days.
I could use some Botox to reduce my groin sweats from sitting in front of the computer too much.
