How much space is needed for the mobile cleaning?

I'm a senior. Will I be covered under the Alberta Dental Assistance for Seniors Plan?

Getting out of my wheelchair is difficult. Can I receive treatment while in my wheelchair?

We understand and recognize the difficulty. Yes, we can perform treatment for you in your wheelchair. You will be seated upright rather than laying back. Your comfort during treatment is our central focus. You get to decide what that looks like for you.

Should I still see my dentist?

It is recommended to see a dentist annually. We can refer to a dentist of your choice if we see that a restoration (filling) is required and can easily email any treatment notes over to that office to avoid duplication.
