  • Yes, we do direct billing with dental insurance. As every insurance company and plan is different we can provide estimates of your coverage to the best of our ability as a courtesy but you do need to check with your insurance provider for your exact coverage. It is important for you to understand your insurance and we are happy to help you with this.

    You will be responsible for any amounts not covered by your dental insurance provider.

    We bill according to the BCDA (British Columbia Dental Association) suggested fee guide.

  • Sustainable dentistry is dentistry that makes a concerted and intentional effort to minimize environmental impact while still providing high-quality dentistry.

    Dr. Linton believes sustainable dentistry also means long lasting treatment focusing on accurate diagnosis, treatment planning, skilled implementation, and patient education to optimally maintain it. This minimizes the need for future intervention.

  • Dr. Linton wanted a practice name that reflected her values and vision for a practice she could call home.

    With a dream to have her own practice and to be able to lead and grow a synergistic team with an emphasis on high quality, progressive, and individualized patient care in a cozy/uplifting/fun environment - this was no simple task. . She spent many hours pondering potential names that would represent this vision, an offhand suggestion from her husband and HappyTree offically became the new practice name.

    HappyTree Dental represents many things but above all it was meant to reflect a feeling and vision Dr. Linton hoped to ultimately create at the practice. Similar to the one you get when out in nature. Calm, nurtured, uplifted, supported, strong, joyful, present. It’s not the easiest feeling to achieve in a dental environment but one she believes is a worthwhile pursuit. That’s HappyTree Dental.
