Dr. My Le was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba. She earned her Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree from the University of Manitoba in 2011. After graduation, she gained extensive clinical experience in both private practice and hospital settings while working in Peace River, Northern Alberta. In 2012, Dr. Le relocated to Calgary, which she has proudly called home. However, her heart still belongs to her hometown team, and she continues to cheer passionately for the Winnipeg Jets!

Growing up, Dr. Le deeply appreciated art and science, making dentistry the perfect career path. She loves getting to the “root” of a problem while bringing artistry to her work as a “tooth artist.” Her natural talent for art shines through in her expertise in cosmetic dentistry, where she blends creativity with an understanding of form and function to create stunning smiles. Outside of dentistry, Dr. Le enjoys exploring various art forms, and you can even find some of her unique art pieces displayed in our office. However, her most rewarding masterpieces are the beautiful, confident smiles she creates for her patients!

In her almost 15 years of practice, Dr. Le has developed a practical and compassionate approach to patient care: she takes the time to listen to her patient’s concerns and tailors each treatment plan using gentle, modern dental techniques. She has a special interest in working with anxious patients, creating a calm and relaxing environment where they feel at ease. Another one of her areas of special interest is oral surgery, including wisdom teeth extractions, where her skill and gentle demeanor make even the most nervous patients feel confident and cared for. 

In her free time, Dr. Le enjoys experimenting in the kitchen, gardening, and crafting delicious and healthy recipes. Staying active is also a priority; she works closely with her personal trainer to maintain a balanced lifestyle. As a passionate artist, Dr. Le finds inspiration in the world around her to create one-of-a-kind beautiful pieces of artwork. However, her greatest joy comes from spending time with her 2-year-old son, Willie – who, like many toddlers, isn’t a fan of having his teeth brushed. Despite his protests, Dr. Le hasn’t missed a single brushing session, proving that persistence pays off! For all the parents out there, don’t give up, and be sure to ask Dr. Le for tips and techniques during your next visit!

"Growing up, I dreamed of becoming an artist. Today, I am living that dream as a ‘tooth artist.’ Nearly every day, I create tooth-coloured fillings and porcelain restorations, carefully carving and shaping teeth back to their original form. When enhancing a patient’s smile, I follow the philosophy that ‘form follows function.’ Understanding each patient’s unique anatomy and occlusion is the critical first step in designing a smile that is not only beautiful but also functional and built for long-term success. A truly stunning smile is one where the teeth and jaw work together in perfect harmony."

‘‘The best dentist, period! They seriously see you as family and even treat you like one! Dr. Le and her staff are to be trusted and down to earth, the best group of people I have ever met! Do not think twice when it comes to this place!’’

Nawaf

‘‘Dr. My is a total sweetheart. She and her assistants always make sure that I am comfortable and, during any procedure, make sure that I am okay. During the close down of Covid, I had an emergency arise; Dr. My went way beyond the “call of duty” to help me. She’s the best dentist I have ever had.’’
