| Where do you go to for your dentist?
So I'm planning to find a new dentist because I feel like the one right now isn't that great.  Any suggestions? I might get braces soon so I'm just looking for opinions. Please share! If it's in Richmond (and relatively inexpensive) that'd be even better |

I go to Dr. John St. Jermain, in the Oakridge medical building.
edit: I missed the 'inexpensive' part. Lol, good luck finding a cheap dentist. And if you do, i would be very hesitant.

What do you mean your dentist isn't "great" though...

Thanks for your input guys. I just don't think my dentist is that great, some procedures he did on my teeth turned out to be quite "shoddy" and I follow everything he says.
A couple other ratings on this site say the same thing too Dr. Kenneth Fung - Richmond, BC Dentist - 5 doctor reviews | RateMDs.com
I don't mean a cheap dentist, just one that is worth your money and you won't go  in the future.

Amateur as I had to constantly go out to UBC to have another orthodontist check on their work.

Christine Tong
Main and 33rd Avenue, Vancouver
She was the dentist that turned me around for check-ups. Don't get me wrong, I still fucking hate going to the dentist but at least when I go to her, my gums don't look like they went through a meat grinder.

If you want a dentist for braces ... I had horrible, horrible teeth back in high school. I went to a dentist in Langley called Dr. James Findlay even though I live in vancouver. If I recall, he was around half the price of local places. His office is newer, some pretty hot staff members (at least back when I went), win win situation lol. I guess because he's all the way out in langley he can afford to charge you much less.
My regular dentist for checkups and stuff is Dr. Otto and Weaver on the corner of 57th and knight, across the street from mcdonalds.

If you're super poor and you feel like risking your life, go to the dentist at the vancouver general hospital. It's in the new building. Extremely cheap, but the staff is recent UBC dental graduates so you're going to be in the hands of a bunch of 20 somethings who are probably still hitting the books at night.
