Family Dentist in NW Calgary
All Smiles Dental Care is a family dentist in NW Calgary, at 5149 Country Hills Blvd NW. Our general dentists care for children and adults, from toddlers to grandparents, at one clinic.
What Is a Family Dentist?
A family dentist is a general dentist who treats patients of every age. Instead of finding a separate dentist for your kids, your partner and your parents, you book the whole family with one team that knows your history. Your dentist can spot patterns that run in a family, such as cavity-prone teeth.
Our clinic offers care for every member of your family, from check-ups and cleanings to fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals and cosmetic treatment. All procedures are performed by general dentists. Read more about how our approach works in our guide to multigenerational family dental care.
Family Dental Care for Every Age
Needs change as your family grows. The table below shows the kind of care we offer at each stage.
| Stage | Common dental care | Where to read more |
|---|---|---|
| Babies and toddlers | First visit by age one, gentle exam, tips on cleaning and diet | Kids dentist care |
| Children | Cleanings, fluoride, sealants, fillings, sports mouth guards | Kids dentist care |
| Teens and adults | Exams, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, crowns, whitening | Exams and cleanings |
| Adults and seniors | Root canals, bridges, dentures, implants, gum care | Restorative dentistry |
Preventive Care for the Whole Family
Prevention keeps most family dental problems small. A regular visit includes an exam and professional cleaning, and our clinic uses digital X-rays and intraoral cameras so you can see what your dentist sees. Learn more about dental exams and cleanings.
Restorative and Cosmetic Care
If a tooth needs repair, our dentists offer fillings, crowns, bridges and root canal therapy. If you want to change how your smile looks, we also offer teeth whitening and veneers. See our restorative dentistry and cosmetic dentistry pages for details.
Gentle Care for Nervous Patients
Dental anxiety is common in both children and adults. We take a gentle, patient-centred approach, and we offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation and local anesthesia. Learn about our sedation dentistry options.
How Often Should You Visit a Family Dentist?
Many people visit about twice a year, but your dentist sets the schedule based on your oral health and risk of cavities or gum disease. Children are often seen every six months so growth and new teeth can be checked. Some patients need more frequent visits. Our guide explains how often to visit a family dentist.
Why Families Choose One Dentist
Staying with one family dentist has practical benefits. Your records are in one place, your children grow up with a team they know. Our article on why choosing a family dentist is a good long-term investment covers this in more detail.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a family dentist different from a general dentist?
A family dentist is a general dentist who treats patients of every age, from toddlers to grandparents. The training and the types of care are the same. The difference is that a family practice such as All Smiles Dental Care sees children, parents and grandparents at one clinic, so the whole family can share one team and one schedule.
What does a family dentist do?
A family dentist handles routine and restorative care for all ages. That includes exams, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride and sealants for children, fillings, crowns, bridges and root canals, and cosmetic care such as teeth whitening and veneers. At All Smiles Dental Care, our general dentists also offer sedation options and keep emergency appointment times open each day.
At what age can my child see a family dentist?
The Canadian Dental Association recommends a first dental visit within six months of the first tooth coming in, or by age one. We welcome patients of all ages at All Smiles Dental Care, so your baby, your teenager and you can all be seen at the same NW Calgary clinic. Call 403-777-3567 to book a first visit.
How often should my family see a family dentist?
Many people visit about twice a year for an exam and cleaning, but the right schedule depends on each person's oral health, risk of cavities and gum health. Your dentist will tell you how often you or your child should come back. Children are often seen every six months so the dentist can watch growth and catch problems early.
Do you offer sedation for anxious family members?
Yes. We offer nitrous oxide, oral sedation and local anesthesia, so we can match the option to the person and the treatment. If a child or adult in your family feels nervous about dental visits, tell our team when you call 403-777-3567 and we will talk through the choices before the appointment.
Does All Smiles Dental Care bill insurance directly?
Yes. We bill insurance directly, which means our team can handle the paperwork for you. We also offer 0% financing for treatment. The cost of care depends on each person's treatment plan, so call 403-777-3567 and we can explain your coverage and payment options before you book.
