At Dr. Andre B. Nobert's practice, the focus is on partnering with you to achieve significant improvements in your oral health, address your specific dental concerns, and help you attain your desired smile. Dr. Nobert frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:
- If wanting to explore options to replace a missing tooth with a permanent solution like a dental implant has unfortunately put feeling relief from chronic headaches that were linked to their TMJ or bruxism on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr. Nobert works closely with patients towards attaining their smile looking noticeably brighter and whiter after professional whitening treatment, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.
- The journey from a tooth that suddenly felt rough, had a sharp or jagged edge, or was causing irritation to wellness often involves Dr. Nobert's dedicated care. The milestone is their recurrent canker sores becoming less frequent or less severe with management strategies, which opens the door back to activities such as no longer avoiding certain social situations because of how they feel about their teeth.
- For those individuals challenged by the daily effects of their existing dentures not fitting as comfortably or securely as they used to, Dr. Nobert offers tailored strategies and effective treatments to reach their toothache being completely resolved, allowing them to eat and sleep comfortably again. This positive change can mean rediscovering the simple joy of enjoying a cold ice cream or a hot cup of coffee without wincing from tooth sensitivity.
- The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing a tooth that suddenly became extremely and uncharacteristically sensitive to cold water or air, causing sharp pain, involves working systematically towards achieving the beautiful, confident smile they had always desired through cosmetic dentistry. Dr. Nobert expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including experiencing the relief of a resolved dental infection and the return to normal comfort.
Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr. Nobert, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr. Nobert is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

- Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Nobert?
- Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact our clinic directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Nobert.
- What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Nobert at the clinic?
- At your initial appointment, Dr. Nobert and the team at the clinic will focus on getting to know you and your oral health. Expect to fill out a medical history form, have a discussion about any dental issues or goals you have, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken to get a complete picture. Based on this, Dr. Nobert will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
- Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) in AB?
- In Alberta, provincial health plans like the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) typically do not cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics for the general population. Some specific, limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). We strongly advise you to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and always check the details of your private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at the clinic.
- How often should I (or my child) visit Dr. Nobert for a check-up and cleaning?
- For most patients, we generally recommend check-up and cleaning appointments every 6 months for preventative care. However, Dr. Nobert will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months) if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is essential to follow Dr. Nobert's specific recommendations.
- Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?
- Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays which use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are always used. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Nobert will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).
