FAQs
Do I need a referral to see a dentist?
No referral is needed to book an appointment at Westside Dental. Whether you are new to the area, looking for a family dentist, or need urgent care, you can contact us directly to schedule a visit.
How often should I have a dental check-up?
Most patients benefit from seeing their dentist every six months for a check-up and cleaning. This helps us catch issues early and maintain strong, healthy teeth. Depending on your oral health, we may recommend more frequent visits.
Do dental cleanings hurt?
Professional cleanings are usually comfortable, but some patients may feel mild sensitivity, especially if there has been a gap between visits. Our hygienists use gentle techniques and modern tools to keep your visit easy and stress-free.
What if I have a dental emergency?
If you experience sudden tooth pain, a broken tooth, or swelling, contact Westside Dental right away. We offer same-day emergency appointments in Calgary SW whenever possible so you can get relief quickly.
Do you accept dental insurance?
Yes, we work with most major insurance providers and can help you understand your coverage. We also offer flexible payment options so you can receive the care you need without financial stress.
How much will my dental treatment cost?
The cost depends on the type of treatment and your individual needs. At Westside Dental, we follow the Alberta Dental Fee Guide to keep pricing fair and transparent. We also offer flexible payment plans and direct billing to insurance whenever possible, so you can focus on your care without worrying about finances.
