About Us

IMPORTANT: The Shine clinic RE-OPENED January 26th, 2019 in the new Boyle McCauley Health Centre Dental Clinic located in the Metis Capital Renaissance Tower.  This new clinic space will allow us to increase from 4 to 8 operatories, allowing for more than 900 new patients!

At Shine we aim to treat those with emergent dental issues with a priority given to children and those in pain.  The clinic opens at 08:20 am on Saturday, but those patients who want to increase their chances of being treated may choose to line up early as space is limited. Thus, unfortunately, there is no guarantee that we will be able to see every patient who arrives at our clinic on any given day. Thank you for your understanding.

There is no charge to patients. However, there may be limits to what can be performed due to equipment and timing.

Please note: the goal of Shine dentistry is to operate every Saturday during the school year.  However, the Shine dentistry clinic depends entirely on the support of our volunteers and as such, we cannot guarantee the clinic will be open every Saturday.

Important information about our clinic:

• No appointments are necessary
• We operate on a first come first serve basis
• Please check our calendar before planning to come in to confirm we will be open!
• We only treat those with no dental insurance
• We provide mostly fillings extractions, and hygiene services (cleanings). We are unable to provide any treatments that require a dental laboratory (crowns, implants, dentures, etc). We are also unable to offer any orthodontics
• Shine dentistry is entirely supported by our annual golf tournament fundraiser and volunteers from the dental community of Edmonton
