After graduation from dentistry school in 1993 she wanted to learn and gain as much experience as she could in her chosen field, so she bought a practice with a classmate in a small city in Manitoba. As owner she gained significant experience as a dentist and in all aspects of the business. Dr. Sushma Bajaj

Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
How can I prepare for my dental visit to ensure a smooth experience?
To ensure a smooth experience, make sure to bring your insurance card, any necessary medical information, and a valid ID. Arrive a few minutes early to complete any paperwork, and feel free to let us know if you have any specific concerns or questions about your dental health.
What should I expect if I’m visiting Smile Dental Group for the first time?
During your first visit at our Burnaby dental office, we will carry out a thorough dental exam, which may include X-rays to check and assess your oral health. Our dental team will properly review your medical and dental history, discuss your concerns, and provide you with a personalized treatment plan.
Do you offer weekend appointments for patients with busy schedules?
Yes, our dental office in Burnaby offers weekend appointments to accommodate busy schedules. Our office is open on Saturdays, so you can easily schedule your dental visit that fits into your routine.
What is a smile makeover, and what treatments are included in the process?
A smile makeover is a customized plan that combines multiple cosmetic dental procedures—such as whitening, veneers, crowns, bonding, or Invisalign—to improve the overall aesthetics of your smile.
How does Invisalign work, and how is it different from traditional braces?
Invisalign uses clear, removable aligners to gently shift your teeth into place. They’re comfortable, virtually invisible, and unlike metal braces, there’s no need for wires or brackets—just a smooth, simple path to a better smile.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
The duration of Invisalign treatment typically ranges from 12 to 18 months, all depending on the severity of your case. Your Invisalign dentist will make a personalized treatment plan and give you an estimated timeline based on your individual needs.
What does a dental sealant do, and should I get one for my child’s teeth?
Dental sealants are quite thin, protective coatings put to the chewing surfaces of the back teeth to prevent cavities. They are especially recommended for children, as they help protect newly erupted molars from decay, making oral hygiene easier and more effective.
What kinds of dental insurance do you accept at Smile Dental Group?
We accept most of the major insurance plans, including MetLife, Cigna, Aetna, Delta Dental, and more. We also serve patients with CDCP coverage. If you’re unsure whether we accept your insurance, feel free to contact us, and we’ll help verify your benefits.
