Effective Wednesday, April 28/21 at 8am, the province is in "lock-down".  As per Premier Iain Rankin, and Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Robert Strang, Nova Scotians are being asked to remain "in their municipalities" for all but essential reasons.

Unlike last Spring of 2020, Dentistry is currently being considered essential health care, and we are permitted to remain open.  We are operating under strict protocols that are listed here on our website.

We are postponing all non-emergency treatment for patients who are from HRM, , or who have travelled to HRM for non-essential reasons since Friday April 23, 2021 at 8am.  If you fall into this category, any urgent care needs will be addressed with Dr. Hennessy directly so please call the office and leave a message.

We thank all our patients for their continued vigilance, care, and understanding during this last year.  Stay safe and keep kindness in your heart.

We are currently looking to expand our Wolfville Dentistry team to include a third full time Registered Dental Hygienist.  If you, or someone you know is interested in knowing more about the position please feel free to check out and share the PDF ad posting below!

We are officially on Christmas/Holiday break at Wolfville Dentistry!! We are all DEFINITELY ready to spend a few days in our PJs but will be rested and ready to welcome you back on Monday, January 4, 2021!

We thank you for all your support, patience and kindness throughout this crazy year. Thanks to our amazing patient family, we had a successful "Mask Fundraiser" raising over $500 for our friends Chrysalis House Association!

If you have a dental emergency over the holidays, please click here to find out how and when to get in touch with Dr. Hennessy.

This year in particular, we have so much to be thankful for at Wolfville Dentistry! This Thanksgiving we are launching our "Face mask Fundraiser" in support of Chrysalis House Association!


For every $10 Wolfville Dentistry mask sold, we will donate $5 to this wonderful community organization which provides shelter to women and children and empowers them to have hope and live free from violence and abuse (the remaining $5 helps to offset the cost of the masks).


Masks are reusable, machine washable (95% cotton/5% spandex) with adjustable ear straps and an bendable nose band.


They are super comfortable and "all the rage"! We even spotted these two cuties wearing them while enjoying Dr. Hennessy's back yard!

One of the lovely things about being a business owner in a small town is the sense of community that we are so fortunate to enjoy!  However, news also spreads rapidly in small towns and some recent news in Dr Hennessy's family may have created potential confusion for her patients.

In April, Dr. Hennessy's husband (Dr. Jeff Hennessy) was appointed Provost and Vice President Academic & Research at Mount Allison University in New Brunswick.  This is exciting news for the Hennessy family!

However, patients can be assured that there are NO PLANS for Dr. Erin Hennessy (the dentist and owner of Wolfville Dentistry) to leave Wolfville or sell her dental practice.  She and her son Rory will remain in Wolfville, and her husband will travel to New Brunswick for this appointment, effective July 1st, 2020.  He will surely become intimately familiar with the commute through the Cobequid pass!

Of course with COVID-19 restrictions in play, there are obviously many new considerations for their family.  Like so many things in this "new normal" of COVID-19, family dinners will be enjoyed by FaceTime for the foreseeable future! 

Just got official word that not only is the Easter Bunny considered an essential service, but so is the Tooth Fairy! Good news for all of you at home managing your own extractions....

For anything that Ms. T. Fairy cannot help with, remember that Dr. Hennessy is still available by phone.


Be well everyone, and Happy Easter!

In an effort to contain the spread of the COVID-19 virus, all dental offices in Nova Scotia are shut down indefinitely for all dental treatment, including emergency dental care.  There are currently only select EMERGENCY DENTAL CENTRES that are designated to see dental emergencies.

If you have a dental emergency during this closure, please contact Dr. Hennessy on her cell phone at (902) 300-9075 and she will walk you through the emergency protocols, and refer you for emergency treatment as needed.  At this time, she is still able to provide advice about pain management, call in prescriptions, and answer questions about your dental situation. 

If you have an appointment with us in April, please consider it cancelled and we will be in touch with you once the office is open again to reschedule.  Please ignore all reminder texts/emails that you may receive indicating otherwise.

Please be safe, wash your hands, and read a good book. Call a neighbour. Write an email to a friend and tell them you're thinking of them. We need to support one another during this time.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
