Dr. Rehan Merchant
Doctors
After working in multiple rural and coastal communities in Australia and British Columbia, I’m excited to put down roots in the Leduc community! Growing up watching my father work in healthcare inspired me to pursue my own career in dentistry.
I grew up on the east coast of Canada in Halifax, Nova Scotia, and began my academic journey at Dalhousie University. After retiring from an athletic career as a Canadian National wrestling team member, I set my sights on pursuing my dream of becoming a dentist, graduating from Griffith University in Australia with Honours. After graduating I returned to Canada, working on Vancouver Island and Edmonton, before eventually settling and finding my home at Orchard Family Dental. When not at the clinic, I try to take advantage of Alberta’s great outdoors by visiting the mountains to ski and hike. I can also be found keeping active through coaching and training in wrestling and martial arts.
I am privileged to have the opportunity to build relationships with families generations deep at our practice. I enjoyed my time working with Dr. Paul Ng prior to his retirement and aim to continue his legacy of clinical excellence while providing an unmatched patient experience. Here at Orchard Family Dental, we strive to create a caring and comfortable environment for you and your family by combining thousands of hours of education alongside the latest in dental technology to allow us to serve you better. My treatment philosophy focuses on communication and achieving the best possible results for my patients in the long term. We focus on maintaining every smile for a lifetime.
I look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to Orchard Family Dental!
Dental Hygiene
Dental Cleaning Near You: A Fresh Start for Your Teeth You don’t have to love going to the dentist to love how it feels after a good cleaning. Whether you’re on track with your visits or haven’t been in a while, a hygiene appointment…
Gum Grafting
When gums start to recede, the roots don’t stay hidden. Sometimes it’s just one spot near the front. Other times it’s a whole section that looks longer than it used to. The root shows up, brushing feels sharp, and you notice cold foods hit…
Oral Cancer Screening
Some things are easy to miss if you’re not looking for them. Oral cancer doesn’t always come with pain. Sometimes it’s just a patch that doesn’t go away. A sore that feels slow to heal. A spot you keep biting accidentally. You might not…
Sealants
Dental sealants protect the grooves in your teeth where toothbrushes can’t always reach. Even if you brush twice a day, some parts of your teeth are just tough to clean—especially those back molars. They’re full of deep grooves where food and bacteria love to…
Extractions
When a tooth can’t be saved, removal becomes part of the healing. It’s not the conversation anyone wants to have. You sit down expecting a plan—a filling, a crown, something that keeps everything in place. And then your dentist says, “It’s time to take…
Emergency Dentistry
Emergency dental care when it matters most. Toothaches don’t wait for office hours—and neither do we. There’s nothing like mouth pain to throw off your day. Maybe it’s a sudden ache, a chipped tooth, or swelling that came out of nowhere. When something’s wrong,…
All-on-4 Dental Implants
All-on-4 dental implants offer a permanent fix for missing teeth. One procedure. Four implants. A full smile restored. If most of your teeth are missing—or too damaged to keep—replacing each one individually isn’t always realistic. All-on-4 dental implants let you restore a full upper…
Dental Bridges
Dental bridges help bring things back to normal—one tooth at a time. When you’re missing a tooth, you feel it every day—when you eat, when you speak, when you catch your smile in the mirror. It’s not just a cosmetic thing. It’s personal. A…
Dental Implants
Dental Implants Near You: A Long-Term Solution | Costs & Services Dental implants may be the best way to replace missing teeth because implants look much like natural teeth. Once the artificial replacement teeth are in, they function like your own natural teeth, allowing…
Fillings
When teeth break down, we help you build back up. A chipped tooth, a missing filling, something just not feeling right. It might seem small, but it changes how you eat, how you talk—how you carry yourself. You start chewing on one side. Dodging…
Inlays and Onlays
A little damage doesn’t always need a big fix. Sometimes it’s not a major crack. Not a full-blown cavity. Just a spot that’s worn, weak, or quietly getting worse. You can still chew—but not like before. You’ve started favouring the other side. Inlays and…
Dentures
Dentures can help you eat, smile, and speak with confidence again. There’s a quiet kind of frustration that comes with missing teeth. Maybe you chew on one side. Maybe you’ve stopped ordering certain meals. Maybe you just don’t feel like yourself when you smile….
Crowns
When a tooth needs backup, a crown can step in. Teeth don’t always break all at once. It could be a crack you barely notice, a corner that’s worn down, or a filling that’s been redone too many times. Whatever the reason, a crown…
Root Canal Therapy
A sore tooth doesn’t have to mean losing it. When a deep ache won’t go away, it’s easy to assume the worst. Maybe you’ve been avoiding certain foods. Maybe the pain wakes you up. But the truth is—even when things feel serious, your tooth…
Night Guards
A night guard can stop the grinding before it wears you down. You wake up and something’s off. Your jaw feels stiff, maybe sore. Your teeth ache a little, like you’ve been chewing all night—only you haven’t. This kind of wear can sneak up….
AI Diagnostics
Some problems hide in plain sight. AI helps us find them. You brush. You floss. Nothing feels off. But behind a tooth, beneath the surface—there’s something happening you can’t see. Not yet. That’s where artificial intelligence comes in. It scans the scan. Reads patterns….
Veneers & Lumineers
Veneers and Lumineers offer change—without starting from scratch. Some people want to fix one tooth. Others want their whole smile to feel more balanced. Maybe there’s a chip that never quite blended in. Or a few spots that don’t respond to whitening, no matter…
Bonding
Bonding is a small repair that can make your smile feel whole again. It could be a tiny chip on your front tooth. A gap you’ve noticed in photos. A rough edge you can’t help but feel with your tongue. It’s not painful—but it’s…
Teeth Whitening
Want a brighter smile? Teeth whitening treatments can help—with options for every lifestyle. Stains build slowly. You don’t always notice them until one day your smile feels… dull. Less white than you remember. Less like you. Coffee, red wine, aging—they all play a role….
Retainers
Retainers keep your smile steady after the braces come off. Braces move the teeth. Retainers make sure they stay put. Once the wires come off or the last aligner is done, your teeth are still a little unsettled. Without something to guide them, they’ll…
Snoring / Sleep Apnea Devices
Dental devices can help you breathe easier—and sleep deeper. Some nights you sleep. Other nights, it’s just hours of tossing, snoring, or waking up without knowing why. You feel it in the morning—groggy, foggy, heavy-eyed. And it lingers all day. Snoring and sleep apnea…
Sports Mouth Guards
A custom mouth guard does more than protect your teeth—it protects your game. You don’t always see the impact coming. A puck to the chin. An elbow during a rebound. A fall you didn’t plan. That’s the nature of sport—fast, physical, and unpredictable. A…
TMJ / TMD Treatment
When your jaw’s out of sync, it drags everything with it. You start your day with a sore face and a tight neck. Maybe you’re grinding in your sleep. Maybe you don’t even realize it—until your jaw locks up halfway through a yawn. TMJ…
Oral Surgery
Some problems go deeper—and need a surgical solution. Maybe you’ve got a tooth that won’t budge. Or an issue under the surface that’s been causing pain for far too long. Whatever the reason, oral surgery can be the next step toward comfort, function, and…
