Endodontics, Periodontics & Dental Implants in Calgary

Endo Perio Calgary presents itself as Calgary's first specialty office to bring together endodontics, periodontics, and dental implants under one roof. The center is led by Dr. Luke Liszka and Dr. Erin McKenzie, and their team works in an environment described as boutique-style, focused on patient comfort and personalized care.

Specialties and Treatments

The center's activity is organized into three main areas: endodontics, periodontics, and dental implants. Endodontics includes endodontic services and sedation; periodontics offers periodontic services, hygiene services, sedation, and the All-On-4 technique; and implants include dental implants and All-On-4. The site also mentions preventive, restorative, and cosmetic dentistry services, as well as selected oral surgery procedures, with customized treatment plans following a thorough examination and diagnostic imaging.

Professional Team

Dr. Luke Liszka is a periodontist and dental implant specialist. According to the center's information, he places more than 600 implants per year and is an expert in full mouth reconstruction and "Teeth In A Day" cases. He trained at the University of Pittsburgh, where he graduated in Environmental Studies, and earned his doctorate in dentistry at Boston University School of Dental Medicine with Summa Cum Laude honors. He completed his residency at the Indianapolis Veterans Affairs Hospital and the Indianapolis University Dental School, where he received a master's degree in Periodontics. He conducted research on the effect of diabetes on the success of dental implant treatment, which received an honorable mention at the Midwest Society of Periodontology Graduate Student Research Forum Awards Ceremony. The center states that it uses 3D printing, 3D dental imaging, and the latest implant materials, and that it treats children and people with disabilities, including anxious patients, through intravenous or oral anesthesia administered on-site. Dr. Erin McKenzie is part of the leadership team, although the material does not detail her training.

Facilities and Technology

The office features a reception area for waiting, a private consultation area to review treatment options and answer questions, and treatment rooms equipped with current technology, where patients can watch television during their appointment. It also has digital X-rays and computerized health records.

Patients and Complementary Services

Endo Perio Calgary treats patients of all ages, including children, teenagers, and adults, and accepts new patients. The first visit includes a comprehensive evaluation, diagnostic imaging when necessary, a periodontal evaluation, and an oral cancer screening, followed by a detailed consultation about oral health status and treatment priorities. The center offers emergency care for severe pain, infection, swelling, broken teeth, or trauma. It also provides sedation for anxious patients or complex procedures, after reviewing medical history and medication. Regarding cosmetic dentistry, the site mentions whitening, veneers, bonding, and smile improvements.

Frequently Asked Questions and Patient Experience

The site answers common questions: the recommended frequency of visits is every six months for most patients, although those with gum disease, restorative work, or medical conditions may need more frequent check-ups. Appointments can be requested by phone or online. Published testimonials highlight positive experiences and reduced anxiety; one patient mentions a painless root canal, and another thanks Dr. Liszka and his team for their care.
