Dental Fees in Richmond, BC: How Our Pricing Works

Short answer: at DTC Dental Treatment Center in Terra Nova, Richmond, every fee follows the BC Dental Association (BCDA) fee guide with no markup, including emergency and surgical care. We bill the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and most insurance plans directly, and you get a written estimate before treatment starts, so you know your share first.

What is the BCDA fee guide?

The BC Dental Association publishes a fee guide that lists a suggested fee for each dental procedure code, from exams and x-rays to fillings, root canals and extractions. Insurance plans in BC usually base what they pay on it. Each dental office sets its own fees and can charge more than the guide. DTC charges the guide fee, with no markup.

Why we don't post a price list

What a visit costs depends on what you need: the exam, the x-rays your dentist recommends, how much cleaning (scaling) is needed, and any treatment. Instead of a price range that may not fit you, we look first and then give you a written estimate. Nothing starts without your OK.
