Dr. Ryley Tolman
General Dentist & Owner

A born and raised Albertan, Dr. Tolman is originally from a small town called Cardston. He swiftly headed south of the border to pursue dream of dentistry, graduating from the University of Detroit Mercy. Although he loves all aspects of dentistry, Dr. Tolman enjoys providing crowns, bridges, Invisalign treatments, and root canal therapy treatments. Perhaps the reason he loves to do root canals is because saving natural teeth has always been important to him! Dr. Tolman often says, “A natural tooth is the best tooth”. He is a proud member of the CDSA and he enjoys learning about the latest advancements in Dental technology.

Dr. Tolman enjoys engaging with his patients, truly getting to know them so he can understand their unique needs. He loves allowing his patients to get to know him on a personal level, so it comes as no surprise that the thing he loves most about coming to work is meeting new people and interacting with his patients.

Known for having a soft spot for animals, particularly cats, Dr. Tolman enjoys giving back to organizations that help our furry friends. He is an ardent supporter of the Saving Grace Animal Society. Ever the adventurous type, Dr. Tolman lived in Ecuador for two years and is fluent in Spanish. He gets particularly excited when presented with the opportunity to converse with a patient in Spanish. Dr. Tolman LOVES making balloon animals, and never misses an opportunity to make them for his patients. He loves spending time outdoors with his wife and 4 children. One of his favourite hobbies is producing a plan to lose weight… but quickly falling off the wagon as he is an excellent cook! If it’s the weekend you will most likely find him smoking an oversized cut of Alberta beef from the local butcher. He is a jack of all trades, from excellent woodworking skills to cooking to playing one of many musical instruments!
