What You Can Expect

Our office recognizes that seeing a new dentist can be a stressful experience for some patients who are unsure of what to anticipate. You can anticipate your appointment at Thorncliffe Dental Clinic to be focused on your requirements and concerns.

Our Edmonton dental practice keeps its focus on our patients, ensuring they are comfortable and receiving quality treatment. We start by making sure each appointment scheduled gives our patients enough time to talk about treatment options with our dentists. When a patient needs to undergo x-rays, we develop a complete set of images that captures their oral health accurately, helping us provide the specific care they need. At each exam, we thoroughly examine the intraoral and extra-oral environment to further understand their exact situation.

During each of these steps, as well as when our dentists craft their treatment plan, we talk to our patients about the process for our patients’ comfort. We provide all options to accommodate the health needs and coverage situations of each patient. We also ask each patient how their experience at our practice was, to help better serve their specific concerns in the future.
