Services
Cosmetic Dentistry
Our cosmetic dentistry services restore and enhance smiles through crowns, implants, and teeth whitening. We combine artistic skill with advanced techniques to create natural-looking results. Patients benefit from improved confidence and oral functionality through personalized treatment plans.
Orthodontics
We offer traditional braces and Invisalign solutions for children and adults. Our orthodontic treatments correct misalignment issues to improve dental health and aesthetics. Early intervention helps prevent future complications while boosting self-esteem through straighter smiles.
Invisalign
Invisalign treatments provide discreet teeth-straightening solutions using custom clear aligners. This method offers comfort and convenience with removable trays that adapt to daily life. Patients achieve straighter teeth without traditional metal braces' visibility or restrictions.
Airway Centric Health Care
This specialized approach addresses airway development and breathing patterns affecting overall health. We treat sleep-disordered breathing and tongue-tie issues impacting growth and development. Our interventions promote proper oxygenation for better systemic health and quality of life.
Preventative Hygiene Care
Regular cleanings and checkups form the foundation of our preventative care program. We educate patients on proper home care techniques to maintain optimal oral health. Early detection of potential issues helps prevent costly treatments through proactive dental maintenance.

Questions
Does Speedvale Dental Centre recommend electric or manual toothbrushes?
We recommend electric toothbrushes for most patients due to superior plaque removal and gum health benefits, particularly Philips Sonicare models for their gentle cleaning action.
Why treat cavities in baby teeth instead of removing them?
Baby teeth maintain space for adult teeth, aid jaw development, enable proper nutrition, and support speech development. Preserving them prevents future orthodontic issues and health complications.
How does oral health affect general health?
Gum disease links to heart disease, diabetes complications, and pre-term births. Maintaining oral health prevents systemic infections and supports overall wellness through proper hygiene practices.
What teeth whitening options do you offer?
We provide supervised in-office and at-home whitening systems that deliver effective results with minimal sensitivity. Our dentists recommend personalized options based on individual needs and desired outcomes.

Good dentist, generally does good work. But way too liberal with "emergency fees". I got charged $160 emergency fee for an appointment 5 days after I called to fix a filling that fell out 3 years after they put it in

I highly recommend Speedvale Dental Centre if you live in the area and are in need of dental care. A very clean environment and outstanding service. I've had three visits now and was made comfortable from start to finish with cleaning and a few additional services by every staff I encountered (and I have a lot of dental anxiety!). Look no further!

I have never taken the time to publicly post a Google Review, but my experiences here over the past year truly warrant one. After having the same dentist in a different city since I was a child, I finally decided to switch to one locally and decided to try Speedvale Dental. At my first appointment they told me that several fillings done by my previous dentist needed to be replaced. I had multiple fillings replaced last summer even though they had never caused me any problems. I trusted their opinion. Since having them redone I experienced pain for several weeks afterwards. I returned 3 different
