Our team uses advanced techniques to address discoloration, misalignment, and imperfections, ensuring natural-looking results. Patients benefit from personalized consultations to determine the best options for their aesthetic goals.
Dental Implants
Dental implants provide a permanent solution for missing teeth, combining durability with a natural appearance. We utilize cutting-edge technology to ensure precise placement and long-term success.

Invisalign offers a discreet, comfortable alternative to traditional braces for straightening teeth. Our clinic provides customized aligners that gradually shift teeth into optimal alignment. Patients appreciate the convenience of removable trays and the ability to achieve a straighter smile without metal brackets.

We were lucky enough to get into Metral Dental. As its one of the only other pediatric dentists in the Snuneymuxw (Nanaimo) region. We see Dr. Chen and he is a delight. A very good example of what trauma informed care looks like for children because they acknowledge your child, inform them, and, in doing so, make them feel safe. I highly recommend Metral Dental and, in particular, Dr. Chen for dental care for your family.
