The Atmosphere of Old Strathcona Edmonton

Box Haus was formerly the Alberta Dental Association Building, which was home to Shell Dental for more than 30 years. Shell Dental was a thriving practice owned by Dr Curtis J. Shell— a highly respected dentist with a loyal patient following in Edmonton.

 

Nearing retirement, Dr. Shell was interested in seeing another practitioner continue his legacy as a proud Old Strathcona dentist. He knew his community valued his patient-focused approach and wanted to see his patients have access to the same quality of care for years to come.

 

After meeting our founder, Dr. Llewelyn Angelica Paras, Dr. Shell felt confident he had found his successor. Both doctors held the same philosophy with regards to patient care, and prioritized the health and happiness of each person over their ability to turn a profit— believing that when you put people first, revenue takes care of itself.

 

Today, Dental Haus is a merger of minds. Both Dr. Shell and Dr. Paras have contributed to its conceptualization and will play equal roles in shaping its future. They are thrilled about the opportunity to rebrand and put new life into a practice they both care about deeply.

​

The entire Dental Haus team is proud to serve families in need of a dentist in Old Strathcona, and we look forward to creating long lasting, collaborative relationships with all our patients.
