How Teeth Cleaning Cost Edmonton Is Calculated

A dental office bills a cleaning at or above the Alberta Dental Association fee guide to cover dentists, surgical equipment and larger overhead. Yours Dental Hygiene is an independent clinic run by registered dental hygienists, so our fees for cleaning, scaling and polishing follow the fee guide with no surprise charges.

You get the same procedure, the same codes on your insurance claim, a longer appointment, and no surprise charges.

Understanding Teeth Cleaning Cost Edmonton

Cleanings Are Billed in Units of Time

Every Alberta dental plan pays for scaling in 15-minute units, plus polishing and fluoride as separate codes. Teeth Cleaning Cost Edmonton may vary based on the number of units needed. A routine cleaning for someone with healthy gums is usually 1 to 2 units. Someone who has not been in a few years, or who has gum disease, may need 3 to 4 units across one or two visits.

Your hygienist tells you the number of units before starting, so the estimate on your claim matches the bill.

For an exact quote, call (825) 402-6111 with your plan details, or ask at your first visit. We can also send a pre-determination to your insurer.

We Bill Your Insurance for You

Bring your insurance card and we submit the claim electronically at the desk. Most plans respond within seconds, and you pay only the portion your plan does not cover.

We direct-bill Alberta Blue Cross, Sun Life, Manulife, Canada Life, Green Shield, Desjardins, GMS and most other Canadian insurers.

What Changes the Cost of a Cleaning

Two people can pay different amounts for a cleaning because of:

How much tartar has built up

Gum health and pocket depth

Whether X-rays are due

Time since your last cleaning

Your insurance plan’s yearly limits

Coming in every six months keeps each visit short, which keeps the cost of each visit down.

No Insurance? You Still Have Options

If you are paying out of pocket, we keep it manageable:

Fees follow the Alberta fee guide on every hygiene code
Written estimate before treatment
Cleaning spread over two visits if needed
Help applying for the CDCP if you qualify
Debit, credit and e-transfer accepted

Skipping cleanings to save money may cost more later in fillings and gum treatment. Teeth Cleaning Cost Edmonton is often lower than the cost of treatment that may be needed when regular dental hygiene visits are delayed.

Can you tell me the price before I book?

Yes. Call (825) 402-6111 and tell us whether you have insurance and roughly when your last cleaning was. We will give you a range, and an exact quote after the assessment at your visit.

Do I pay at the visit?

You pay any portion your insurance does not cover at the end of the visit. If you are paying privately, payment is at the visit.

Is there a fee for a missed appointment?

We ask for 24 hours notice to change or cancel so another patient can use the time. Please call if something comes up; we are usually able to move you.

Reviews

"My wife and I recently visited Yours Dental Hygiene and had a great experience! A special thank you to Eimee—she was exceptionally thorough, gentle, and professional throughout our appointments. The clinic itself is spotless, welcoming, and very well-run. Eimee took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we were completely comfortable. Highly recommend this clinic."

"I visited this clinic based on a recommendation from a family friend. Booking an appointment was very easy, and I was able to find a time that fit perfectly with my work schedule. I initially went in for a basic dental cleaning and ended up getting a few sealants done as well. The results were a huge improvement, and I was far more satisfied than I had expected. The staff were friendly and highly professional, making the whole experience even better. I would confidently recommend this clinic to anyone."

Me and my husband had a very wonderful experience with this clinic. We will truly bring our kids here soon.Best recomended dental clinic. "
