Their FAQ
Answers from their website.
Do you accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan?
Yes! We accept the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP). Please bring the information with you for your appointment. Learn More
Do you accept government dental programs?
Yes! We also accept the Interim Federal Health Program (IFHP) and the BC Ministry of Health Dental Supplement programs. Talk to us if you have any questions. Contact Us
What do I need to bring to my first appointment?
Please bring your current insurance plan information and medical history to your first appointment.
In what kind of situation would I need x-rays?
X-rays (also referred to as radiographs) help our dental professionals to detect problems we can't see by simply using a mirror to look into your mouth. They are helpful for seeing beneath gum tissue and between teeth. With x-rays, we can see the absence or presence of teeth (erupting teeth, missing permanent teeth, the position of wisdom teeth, impacted teeth), cavities in their early stages, and the level of bone (which often deteriorates after teeth are extracted or during advanced gum disease). Abscesses, cysts and calcified arteries (which can lead to a stroke) can also be seen with radiographs.
How early should I arrive for my appointment?
Please arrive 10 to 15 minutes early to ensure that you have enough time to complete our New Patient Form.
How do I cancel or reschedule an appointment?
We respect your time and always try our best to stay on schedule. Automated appointment reminders will be sent one week and again two days prior to your visit. To cancel or postpone your appointment, we respectfully ask that you provide us with at least 48 hours of notice to reschedule.

Do you accept dental insurance? And how does it work?
Yes. If you have a dental insurance plan, we will take care of all the paperwork so you are reimbursed for all benefits for which you are entitled. We can electronically submit paperwork to your insurance company on your behalf. We also send all treatment plans for pre-authorization to find out what your specific plan will cover.
