Nolan Ridge Dental in NW Calgary is now offering emergency dental services at our clinic in Creekside. By offering these additional services, Nolan Ridge is hoping to ensure that patients in our area have timely access to dental care in the event of an emergency.

Calgary, AB -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/15/2022 -- "Waiting to see the dentist when you are in pain or worried about something in your mouth can be excruciating. That's why we strive to see any patient with an emergency within 24 hours of them reaching out to us," says Dr. Dima Oweis, clinic operator and lead dentist at Nolan Ridge Dental. You simply call the clinic and the front desk team will find a slot of you to come in to have your emergency assessed. The dental team at Nolan Ridge leaves space in our schedule each day to accommodate emergencies and last minute appointments. We also let each patient know that they may be asked to adjust their own appointment time to accommodate emergency situations when necessary

Dental emergencies include a broken tooth, severe toothache, lost filling or crown, swelling or infection in your gums, face or neck, significant bleeding and cracked or damaged teeth. If your concern is not on this list, it doesn't necessarily mean that it isn't an emergency. No matter what your concern is, you can call the clinic and our team will let you know how quickly they can make an appointment available for you.

When you visit our dentists for an emergency appointment, we will assess the issue, provide as much relief as possible, attempt to stop the problem from getting worse and provide a follow up treatment plan. If you are a patient, we will schedule you a follow up appointment. If you are not, we will share the follow up treatment plan with your regular dental clinic.

"During your emergency appointment, we will take x-rays, check the condition of your teeth, smooth off sharp edges on broken teeth, prescribe medication and/or refer you to a specialist," says Dr. Dima. "The goal of your emergency dental visit will be to relieve your discomfort, diagnose the problem and advise you of your options for resolving it". You can expect to leave the clinic with the situation stabilized, prescriptions for antibiotics or pain medication if you need it and a plan to treat the problem more thoroughly as soon as an appointment can be scheduled.

It is important to see a dentist as soon as possible if you are experiencing a dental emergency such as a broken tooth, swelling or severe pain. Our dental clinic in Nolan Hill is here for you when you need us most!.

Nolan Ridge Dental in NW Calgary is thrilled to share that we provide our services at the same pricing as the Alberta Dental Association Fee Guide recommended prices.

Calgary, AB -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/14/2022 -- "By doing this, our customers will pay the prices that the Alberta Dental College has recommended. This ensures the fairest and most reasonable pricing available," says Dr. Dima Oweis, clinic operator and lead dentist at Nolan Ridge Dental. Dr. Dima's passion for ensuring every patient has reasonable access to dental care is part of the driving force behind offering the lowest prices for her patients.

Many people do not realize that each dental clinic chooses its own pricing. It is not standardized and each clinic can charge a different rate for the same services. The Alberta Dental Association and College provides a recommended range of prices for each key service dentists offer and the individual clinic can choose to charge within these guidelines. Pricing is often based on the dentist's experience and continuing education, as well as the training and equipment the team and clinic offers. That said, many dentists who offer the highest level of care and the latest technology choose to keep their pricing in line with the minimum prices set out by the Fee Guide in order to make dental treatment more affordable for their patients.

Many insurance companies will only reimburse the covered percentage from your plan based on the minimum charge in the Fee Guide and not based on the price a customer actually pays. As an example, if your dental insurance plan covers 80% of the cost of a dental cleaning, the 80% reimbursement or coverage will be calculated on the price the Fee Guide suggests for dental cleanings and not what your dental clinic has charged you.

"This can often be a gap of a few dollars or a few hundred dollars depending on the treatment and the clinic you are dealing with," says Dr. Dima. "In order to ensure our patients know what to expect and have the least amount of gap in their dental coverage versus their co-pays, we have decided to follow the Alberta Fee Guide closely for our pricing. Dental care is critical to the health and wellbeing of our patients so we want to make it as affordable as possible for them".

Access to affordable dental care is an important issue that faces Calgarian families and Nolan Ridge Dental wants to be part of the solution. Oral care impacts every area of your health and wellbeing and getting this critical health service to our patients at the most affordable prices is our small part in helping families to get what they need.
