Queen’s Park Dental, a fixture in New Westminster for more than five decades, markets itself on steady, transparent care that avoids surprise costs for patients.
Located at 902 Quayside Dr., the full-service practice offers general, cosmetic and surgical dentistry for families — some of whom have been patients for three generations.
“Longevity comes from consistency: evidence-based care, reinvesting in technology and being there for the community,” said Associate Dentist Priya Deol. The clinic schedules same-day time for emergencies and mentors newer clinicians as part of its community commitment.
The office emphasizes predictable pricing and flexible payment options to bridge insurance gaps. Its in-house membership — priced at $49.50 per month — includes two exams and two cleanings annually, routine x-rays and fluoride as needed, emergency exams, and 10% off most additional treatments. The plan carries no deductibles, claim forms or denials, and members can enroll immediately.
Queen’s Park Dental also bills directly to Canadian Dental Care Plan providers, handling eligibility checks, predeterminations and claims to streamline patient access. When coverage is not available, staff outline alternatives such as membership pricing, phased treatment or flexible payment arrangements so care can proceed.
New patient visits begin with a review of dental history and a clear focus on patient goals — whether that’s reducing pain, restoring function or improving appearance.
The clinical team creates digital records, intra-oral photos, low-dose digital x-rays and a 3D iTero scan so patients can see proposed outcomes. A comprehensive exam follows, covering teeth, gums, bite, jaw joints and oral cancer screening.
Findings are reviewed on screen and linked to expected health outcomes, like improved chewing or longevity of restorations. Treatment options, timelines and costs are presented in writing, and staff say they never proceed without patient consent.
“We practice ‘ask–show–ask:’ ask what matters, show findings with photos or scans and ask what the patient wants to do,” Deol said. “We give written estimates, honour them and never proceed without consent.”
The practice positions preventive care as a way to avoid advanced problems. Its patient pathway and membership model are designed to make routine checkups and cleanings simple and affordable — reducing the likelihood that people will wait until they’re in pain to seek treatment.
