Real 2026 prices, published — because you shouldn’t have to book an appointment to find out what things cost

A routine check-up and cleaning for a returning patient is about $370.95. A porcelain crown is $1,719.20, and a complete single-tooth implant (implant plus crown) is about $5,000. A root canal is $795.45–$1,354.65 depending on the tooth.

Full price list below.
Most dental clinics in Alberta don’t put prices on their website. We think that’s backwards. You shouldn’t have to book an appointment just to find out whether you can afford one — so below is our actual 2026 fee list for the procedures people ask about most.
Two honest caveats. First, a fee is not always your out-of-pocket cost — if you have insurance or CDCP coverage, your share is usually much less, and we’ll check your benefits before treatment. Second, dentistry is done on real teeth: a tooth that also needs a buildup, or a filling that turns out to involve an extra surface, changes the code that applies. That’s why every treatment plan here comes with a written, itemized quote before anything starts — the list below is what those quotes are built from, not a substitute for one.
The Alberta Dental Fee Guide is the province-wide list of suggested fees published each year by the Alberta Dental Association. Clinics may charge above or below it. For every procedure the Guide covers — exams, x-rays, cleanings, fillings, root canals, gum treatment, and extractions — Redwater Dental Clinic charges exactly the 2026 Fee Guide rate. Insurance plans typically reimburse based on the Fee Guide, so following it means fewer billing surprises for you.

Dentistry is done on real teeth, so a quote can shift if the clinical picture does: which tooth it is, whether it needs a buildup or gum treatment first, extra imaging, or sedation. Two promises hold regardless: you get the exact price in writing before treatment starts, and if anything changes mid-treatment, we tell you before we do the work — never after.
Bottom line: Honest pricing depends on knowing your specific situation. The fastest path to a real number is a 5-minute phone call. Call 780-942-4691, text 855-577-1105, or email appointments@redwaterdentalclinic.com.
