124th Street Dental Team4 min read

Choosing the right family dentist in Edmonton is an important step in supporting your family’s health and comfort. As a family dental practice on 124 Street in Edmonton, we welcome patients of all ages and backgrounds, including children, adults, and seniors.

Our commitment is to provide comfortable, clear, and patient-friendly dental care for families, new patients, and people with urgent dental concerns. You’ll find us in Edmonton’s vibrant 124 Street community, conveniently located for those in Westmount, Glenora, Oliver, and the central Edmonton area.

Comprehensive Services Under One Roof

We offer general, family, cosmetic, restorative, children’s, emergency, orthodontic (braces and Invisalign), gum disease, and sedation dentistry all under one roof. This broad range of services means we can meet a variety of oral health needs within your family, whether routine or more complex.

Our philosophy is that dental care should be easy to access, thorough, and tailored to your needs at every stage of life. We focus on serving families in the neighbourhood for many years, guiding their oral health journey from first visits to advanced treatments.

A Patient-First Approach and Long-Term Relationships

We have been serving Edmonton families for over a decade, and we believe in building lasting relationships based on trust, warmth, and transparency. From your first visit, you’ll notice our comfort-first approach. Every appointment is thoughtfully designed around your needs and goals.

We don’t rush appointments or use confusing jargon, and we never pressure you into unnecessary treatments. Every decision begins with your comfort and the approach that’s best for your long-term health.

Convenience and Flexible Scheduling

We know that family life and work can make scheduling healthcare visits challenging. That’s why we’re open five days a week, including evenings, and offer flexible appointment times to help fit dental care into your busy week.

Multiple family members can be scheduled for consecutive appointments, making it easier for everyone to get the care they need without multiple trips. Our central location means less travel and more convenience for families across Edmonton.

Insurance, Direct Billing, and Payment Support

Dental costs and insurance can be stressful, so we strive to make the process easy. With direct billing for most major insurance plans and CDCP acceptance, our team is here to help manage claims and payments so you can focus on your care.

Our Team: Local, Experienced, and Community-Focused

We are proud to be led by. Ray Basi, who was born and raised in Edmonton and is dedicated to supporting the health of local families.. Basi’s philosophy is to combine a gentle, patient-first approach with the most modern dental techniques, so every visit is as positive and comfortable as possible.

Gentle Care for Children and All Ages

From a child’s very first dental visit, we prioritize gentle care, positive early experiences, and building lifelong healthy dental habits. Our practice is designed to make children feel safe and even excited about dental appointments, and we take the time to explain everything in ways they understand.

Clear Communication and Honest Recommendations

We make sure to walk you through all findings, answer your questions, and present clear care plans. Never using pressure or upselling. You will always know your options and have the confidence to make informed decisions about treatment.

Support for Anxious Patients

Many people delay dental care due to anxiety or past negative experiences. For those who need it, we offer sedation dentistry with a focus on creating a calm, welcoming environment that helps you feel relaxed and confident in your care.

Fair, Transparent Pricing

Our appointments always feature transparent estimates with no hidden costs, and our pricing follows ADA guidelines. Dental care should always come with clarity about processes, cost, and expected results.

Prepared for Dental Emergencies

Should your family face a dental emergency, we offer emergency care and prioritize seeing urgent cases quickly. Our team is calm, experienced, and equipped to address a wide range of dental urgencies. Always putting pain relief and immediate needs first.

Modern, Safe, and Comfortable Environment

Our clinic is designed to be calm and modern, and we use advanced equipment and strict sterilization protocols to ensure every visit is safe and precise.

Trusted by the Community

We are grateful for the trust and feedback from Edmonton families, many of whom mention our gentle care and thorough, clear explanations as reasons they look forward to visiting us.
