Services
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges restore missing teeth using adjacent healthy teeth as anchors. Calgary Dental Centers offers traditional, Maryland-bonded, and cantilever bridges crafted from durable materials like porcelain or ceramic. These restorations improve aesthetics, speech, and chewing function while preventing bone deterioration. Custom designs ensure natural appearance and comfort.
Dental Hygiene Therapy
Comprehensive dental hygiene therapy removes plaque and tartar buildup through ultrasonic scaling and polishing. Calgary Dental Centers' hygienists perform gum health assessments, fluoride treatments, and personalized oral care education. Regular sessions prevent tooth decay, gum disease, and systemic health complications linked to poor oral hygiene.
Dental Veneers
Porcelain and composite resin veneers address discoloration, chips, and misalignment for aesthetic improvements. Calgary Dental Centers creates custom-fitted veneers that mimic natural tooth enamel's light-reflecting properties. Minimal enamel reduction ensures reversibility while achieving durable, stain-resistant smile transformations.
Dentures
Calgary Dental Centers provides complete, overdentures, and immediate dentures for missing teeth restoration. Custom-fitted prosthetics improve facial aesthetics, speech clarity, and chewing ability. Overdentures supported by implants prevent bone loss, while immediate dentures allow patients to leave appointments with functional teeth post-extraction.
Emergency Dentistry
Emergency dental services address knocked-out teeth, severe toothaches, and broken restorations requiring immediate attention. Calgary Dental Centers offers same-day appointments for pain relief and infection prevention. Treatments include root canal therapy, temporary fillings, and trauma management to preserve dental health and prevent complications.

I have been a patient with Calgary Dental Centre (17th Ave Dental Centre) for 40 years. I am truly appreciative of all the care and service I have received throughout the years. Doctor Assaria and all the staff have been extremely kind and accommodating. Thank you for your good care.

A professional group, pleasant and respectful. The Dentist indicated problem areas and advised, but there was no pressure. The dental hygienist did a very good job. I have scheduled a 2nd appointment. I would recommend Calgary Dental Centre in Avenida mall.

Report
Went in for a bad tooth which I want pulled when a different dental office refused and pushed a root canal. Not only was I made to feel like my opinion (and financial decisions) mattered at Calgary's Dental Care, but I also have a plan to get my other teeth in good shape. I was so anxious before and during my appointment, but I'm actually a little excited to go back and get all my work done. I put it off for so many years after bad experience elsewhere.
