We serve patients aged from 6 months to 12 years and accept referrals from GPs, family dentists, and specialists across the region.

At Medicine Hat Oral Surgery and Pediatric Dentistry, we believe specialist care should feel approachable — for kids, for adults, and for the families navigating it all. Our team is built around a simple idea: that every patient deserves to feel informed, comfortable, and genuinely cared for, from their very first visit.

Our team includes two board-certified pediatric dentists and a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, all holding the FRCD(C) designation from the Royal College of Dentists of Canada — and we're proud to be the only practice in Medicine Hat bringing both specialties together under one roof, with the facilities to handle complex procedures safely, right here in our clinic.
