About Yankee Valley Dental
Yankee Valley Dental stemmed from Dr. Parsa’s dream to open a dental practice where she serves the community around her home. Dr. Parsa and her husband (who is also a dentist) live in Airdrie with their toddler, and are really enjoying the life that the beautiful town brings.
She wants her patients to feel that they are being heard and that their dental needs are being met in a comfortable atmosphere.
Dr. Parsa has created an environment that will allow patients to no longer fear the dentist. She has chosen the staff that she feels will help her create a happy and caring atmosphere that she is striving to have. She would like patients to feel that they are being heard and that their dental needs are being met in a comfortable atmosphere.
At Yankee Valley Dental we understand that there are many barriers for patients when it comes to visiting the dentist. Our mission is to reduce these barriers to make your visit the kind of experience that you always wished it to be.
We have caring staff who are here to listen to your concerns and provide a comfortable environment.

We book cleanings based on patient needs (a 7-year-old patient and 50-year-old patient require different amount of cleaning times). We take consideration each individual’s financial situation, and work with their insurance.
