Cosmetic Services
We offer smile makeovers using veneers, teeth whitening, and restorative treatments. Dr. Wan collaborates with lab technicians to create natural-looking results. Pre-operative models ensure patients understand the expected outcomes before treatment begins.

Implant solutions replace missing teeth with permanent, natural-looking restorations. We use medical-grade titanium posts that integrate with the jawbone for stability. Implants support crowns, bridges, or dentures without altering adjacent healthy teeth.

I am definitely one of those people that is terrified of the dentist but all of the staff are so helpful and friendly and immediately make me feel better when walking in the door. Highly recommend this place.

Our family has been with Dr. Wan since she initially began her practice in Maple Ridge. We followed her to Port Coquitlam and once again to her fabulous clinic in beautiful Ambleside in West Van. Yes, we drive from Maple Ridge and would never think of changing dentists. Dr. Wan and the entire staff of Bayside Dentistry are amazing- highly skilled, professional and friendly.
