Family dental studio · Marda Loop, Calgary

Dentistry, minus the dread.

Direct insurance billing, same-week emergency visits, and evening hours that fit around real life — on 33rd Avenue in the heart of the Loop.

I’m booking —

Your first visit is a $189 exam with x-rays — and the first fifteen minutes are just talking, with your coat on if you like.

What we do

Care for the whole household.

From first teeth to night guards — and the appointments nobody plans for.

  • Hygiene & prevention

    Sixty-minute cleanings that never feel like a conveyor belt. Gentle scaling, polish, fluoride when it earns its keep, and honest gum check-ins.

    60 minutes, never rushed
  • Family dentistry

    Check-ups, fillings, crowns and first visits — we see squirmy toddlers, eye-rolling teenagers, and the parents who drove them.

    New-patient exam + x-rays · $189
  • Invisalign

    Straighter teeth without a mouthful of metal. A digital scan — no putty — a preview of your result, and check-ins that fit around work.

    Consultation · complimentary
  • Same-week emergencies

    Cracked, chipped, or throbbing at 2 a.m. — we hold emergency slots every single day, and same-week means same week.

The comfort menu

Ask for anything on it. You don’t have to explain a thing.

Every operatory keeps the full menu stocked, and every item is free. Some patients order the lot; some just like knowing it’s there.

House rule № 1

Nobody here will ever ask why you waited.

Our philosophy

Most dental anxiety isn’t about pain. It’s about surprise.

Surprise bills. Surprise drilling. The surprise lecture about flossing, delivered while you can’t answer back. We opened Larch & Lane because the fix isn’t complicated — it’s just rarely done: explain everything, price everything, and never start until you say so.

So every treatment beyond a check-up comes with a written estimate first. Every procedure is narrated as much — or as little — as you like. And if something can safely wait a year, we’ll tell you that too. Calm isn’t a scented candle at reception. It’s the removal of surprise.

From the neighbourhood

What the Loop is saying.

I hadn’t seen a dentist since before the pandemic and I was braced for a lecture. Instead I got a blanket, a plan, and three appointments that were honestly… fine?
— Priya S., Garrison Woods
They told me the crown could wait a year and the filling couldn’t. A dentist telling me what not to book — that’s when I knew we’d found our place.
— Mark T., South Calgary
My six-year-old asks when she gets to go back. To the dentist. I don’t fully understand it either, but we’re not questioning it.
— Genevieve L., Killarney

Insurance & fees

Direct billing, actually explained.

We deal with your insurer so you don’t spend your lunch break on hold.

  1. Bring your card once.

    We keep your plan details on file and check your coverage before treatment — not after.

  2. We bill them directly.

    Your claim is submitted from the chair. Most process before you’ve got your coat on.

  3. You pay the difference. Only.

    Anything beyond a check-up comes with a written estimate first. No mystery totals, ever.

We bill all major Canadian insurance plans directly. No plan? Our fees follow the current Alberta Dental Fee Guide — and you’ll know the cost before we begin.
