Meet Dr Shackleton

Dr. Tom Shackleton, MS, DDS

I’ve been a practicing dentist for 26 years here in Calgary. In that time, I have enjoyed providing the services of root canal treatment, TMJ pain management, and managing oral medicine concerns.

I believe my compassionate approach combined with the kindness of my wonderful staff are the reasons our patients come back year after year.

During my time in practice, many patients have arrived in my office complaining of tooth pain that has been challenging to diagnose. In those cases, I harness all the tools I have spent years developing to look for clues.

It is my job to determine the underlying cause of your problem before I set out to treat it. I’ll ask you many questions – and listen carefully to your answers. Then, and only then, will I plan your course of treatment.

Whether you require a root canal or have chronic dental pain that has you feeling alone and frustrated, you’ve come to the right place.
