Complete Dental Care for the Entire Family
Our dental office is located in the heart of Cochrane, Alberta. We have proudly offered dental services (with a smile) to the Cochrane community for over 40 years! As a family run practice, we understand dental needs of every age, from children and teens, to adults and seniors.
We focus on each individual patient’s unique needs and can provide the support for a full range of services, from oral hygiene, to more complex issues that require specialised treatments, such as oral surgery and orthodontics.
Regular Dental Exams
Regular dental exams are very important to your overall health. When performed regularly, your dentist will be able to locate and discuss any concerns you may have and alert you to ones that you may not otherwise know about. When detected early, dental problems are much easier to correct and promote better overall health for you and your teeth.
Tooth Decay & Restoration
A cavity can start without any symptoms or pain. If decay is discovered, don’t worry; we have many options for restorative treatments that are comfortable and long lasting. Composite, or white fillings bond directly to the tooth and a custom shade can be chosen to achieve a beautiful aesthetic result. If the damage is more extensive, a porcelain inlay or onlay may be recommended. An inlay restores the area between the cusp tips while an onlay may be used to restore additional tooth structure.
Oral Surgery
Whether from trauma, significantly advanced decay, unusual breakdown of tooth structure, there are times when there is no other option but to extract a tooth. Although this is regarded as an unpleasant experience, we can help put you at ease throughout the process. More commonly, wisdom teeth that need to be removed due to impaction, limited space or other reason can be performed as comfortably as possible.

Services
Oral Hygiene
Teeth require regular checkups and cleanings to ensure optimal oral health and hygiene levels. Regular cleanings help to prevent the build up of stains that appear over time that occur due to everyday factors such as food and drink, especially coffee, tea, wine and such things as tobacco use.
Our team delivers professional teeth cleaning and hygiene services in our family-oriented and friendly atmosphere. Our experienced and fully trained staff of dental hygienists are happy to help and are dedicated to helping you create optimum dental health for yourself and your family.
Dental Implants
For those patients who are missing one or more teeth, dental implants have proven to be the best long-term solution. They provide the most stable and natural-looking integration when it comes to tooth replacement. This is due to the inherent features of the implant and how it is integrated.
Dental implants provide a much more natural and permanent solution as the implant not only anchors directly to the jaw bone, but is also natural in appearance and does not place any strain on surrounding teeth, unlike some bridges. In fact, today, dental implants are also used in conjunction with bridge and denture applications and have a 95% success rate.
If you have one or more missing teeth, or are considering options for tooth replacement, please feel free to contact our office so you can discuss your individual needs with our dental staff.
Dental Crown & Bridge
Crowns and bridges are both types of restorative dentistry, which focuses on repairing or replacing broken or missing teeth most often caused by natural deterioration or unexpected damage due to an accident. In either case, having damaged or missing teeth can affect a person’s overall health, lifestyle and emotional well being and self confidence.
Tristan Ziegenhagel Dentistry can help you determine the best approach to bring back your smile! Depending on the extent of damage, your teeth may require a crown, a bridge or an implant, or a combination of these procedures. Our dental team will guide you through the process, helping you chose the most suitable approach. Materials, such as porcelain, metal or composite materials, and provide you with the support you need at every stage.
Root Canal Treatment (Endodontics)
Root canal therapy is a well-established endodontic treatment of your tooth’s nerve and pulp when it has become infected. This occurs when the tooth’s inner pulp becomes exposed and, due to its sensitive nature, can lead to extreme pain and discomfort. If left untreated, the infection can spread, causing even more damage, pain and extensive oral health problems.
Treating an infected root canal properly and efficiently can help to heal and save your tooth and potentially extending the tooth’s lifespan considerably. The final result will be a tooth that looks, feels and works as similarly as possible to the original tooth.
If you feel you may require root canal therapy, please feel free to contact our office. We can help you assess the best options for your individual needs.

Orthodontics
Orthodontics can help your teeth function and look better. Generally speaking, we often associate this type of dentistry with teenagers wearing braces. This is a common association since the teenage years, between 11 and 15, are considered the best time to proceed with such treatment since most people have their adult teeth by this time and yet their bone structure in the skull and jaw is still growing and forming.
At Tristan Ziegenhagel Dentistry, we have helped families with all of their dental needs since 1977. Orthodontic treatment is an important consideration for every one of our patients. We are here to help determine, guide and treat each patient in their best interest for immediate and long-term dental health goals. We work closely with Cochrane orthodontists such as Barnett Orthodontics to ensure that our patients receive the best care through all stages of their dental health.
