Coaldale Dental Centre

Bacteria is inconsiderate. It creeps in silently, burrowing deep into tiny holes in your teeth, eating away at the structure, and wreaking general havoc with your oral health. The worst part is, you might not even realize your teeth or gums are in trouble – until that decay hits a nerve. At this point, more drastic dental measures might be needed, such as a filling or even a root canal.

An alternative to traditional dentures, dental implants offer another great option for replacing missing teeth. Whether you’re experiencing slipping or discomfort while chewing with your current dentures, or you’re simply yearning for the ability to munch your favourite crunchy foods again, Coaldale Dental Centre (just a short drive away from Lethbridge!) can help.

How do dental implants work?

A two-part structure, implants are composed of a titanium base and a porcelain crown.

The procedure is relatively straightforward.

First, we’ll extract your tooth’s root, then drill a small hole into your jaw bone. Once we’ve implanted a prosthetic root (a metal post) and it’s had time to fuse into your jaw bone (about three months), we’ll attach a permanent artificial tooth (called a crown) on top. This colour-matched, custom-shaped crown will give you a strong, comfortable bite — and of course, a full, natural-looking smile.

Missing teeth don’t just affect your confidence every time you smile. Those gaps can hinder your eating and speaking abilities — and even pose a hazard to the health of your whole mouth. Surrounding teeth may start to grow crooked, or your facial muscles can even end up sagging without the support of your teeth. That’s why dentures are better to get sooner than later.

At Coaldale Dental Centre, we offer full and partial dentures to correct those troublesome gaps before they can become a bigger problem down the road. And, since Coaldale is just a short drive away from Lethbridge and its ‘big city prices’, you can enjoy some small-town savings when you come for a visit!

Cavities have a way of ruining even the quietest moments of your day. You might be jolted out of concentration as you work; be distracted by a twinge of pain in the middle of a good book; or be unable to enjoy your favourite meal for fear of tooth pain. On top of everything, a cavity can lead to detrimental dental problems down the road, such as a cracked tooth, gum disease, or even an infection in the roots of your teeth.

This is not ideal. You deserve to live pain-free every day, and at Coaldale Dental Centre, we want to give you this, and more! We’re located a short, 10-minute drive away from Lethbridge, and we’d love to meet you.

Many unpleasant experiences are described as being “like a root canal.” However, with modern techniques and anesthetics, root canals are no less comfortable than a filling. Best of all, most patients experience significant pain reduction after treatment.

Typically root canals (also called endodontic treatments) are necessitated by a severe infection in the pulp beneath the hard layers of a tooth. This infection is caused by bacteria entering the tooth through a deep cavity, a cracked filling, or other cracks in the enamel.

At Coaldale Dental, we believe everyone deserves a bright, radiant smile. 

But with so many tooth-whitening options available (both over-the-counter and professional), the problem isn’t a lack of options – it’s knowing which one will actually work for you.

And, because we’re conveniently close to Lethbridge, you can treat your teeth whitening day like an escape from the city!

Are they right for you?

Veneers are a popular option for folks interested in transforming their teeth from chipped, stained, or awkwardly-spaced, to perfectly straight and bright white. It’s important that teeth and gums be in a healthy state, however, because if a tooth is weak or fractured (potentially from grinding), the procedure may not be successful.

At Coaldale Dental, we want to help you look your best every day. We’ve expanded our services beyond your dental health to give your smile the best frame possible.
