MEET THE DOCTORS
DR. MELONIE MACDONALD
Dentistry is my passion! After many years of working as an Associate Dentist (most recently at Dentus Family Dental), I decided to venture out on my own and open a new clinic.
WHAT I'M ALL ABOUT
Hi I’m Dr. Mel,
I’ve been involved in the Dentistry world most of my adult life. First as a Dental Assistant, shortly after graduating from High School. Then, as a University of Alberta graduate of Dentistry in 2000.

When I am away from the clinic, I enjoy training for and racing triathlons and cycling with my husband and friends. I’m also a very proud Dog Mom to Macy, Ridley, and Nelson.
I’m excited to see you!

DR. LAURA HILDEBRANDT
I love all facets of general practice, but surgery, including placing implants, brings me the most joy. Working in a digitally-driven office makes the experience even better.
WHAT I'M ALL ABOUT
Hi, I'm Dr. Laura Hildebrandt!
I’m a born and raised Edmontonian. I did my Bachelor of Science at MacEwan University and my Doctor of Dental Surgery at the University of Toronto. I hadn’t gotten quite enough of school by that point, so I completed the General Practice Residency (GPR) here at the University of Alberta where I was trained in IV conscious sedation, difficult surgeries, and treating patients with complex medical conditions.

Dentistry can be a nerve wracking experience for many, which is why I strive to make patients comfortable for their entire visit. This is why I am certified in nitrous oxide, oral, and IV sedation.
​
When I’m not in the clinic, you can find me watching Oilers games, exploring the outdoors with my family and friends, or going to shows at theatres around Edmonton!

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and friends. I love eating, when I’m not in the office, you can find me at the newest restaurants or attempting to recreate a recipe in my own kitchen.
