Veneers are wafer thin facings permanently bonded to the front teeth to improve the shape, position and color of the teeth.
When getting crown work done at Metral Dental Clinic, located in Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, the procedure of fabricating and placing a crown generally requires two appointments. At the first, the tooth to be restored is anesthetized followed by the removal of any decay or rough edges. Finally, the tooth is refined to create adequate room for the fit of the crown.

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.

Dr. Alex Chen is amazing with kids. My son needed some treatment when he was 2 and 4 years old. Both times it was very fast and professional! My son is always looking forward to going to a dental appointment and has only positive emotions after that :)

Wonderful dental office, Dr Chen is amazing. Great dentist but even more impressive is his skill with children. Both my children needed dental work, and both were comfortable with him. My 3 year old was so anxious but he made her feel at ease and did all he could to keep her comfortable.
Play kitchen area for the littles in the waiting room. Movie room for those who need to wait for medication to kick in.

My son had a terrible experience at another local dentist that caused a lot of anxiety. Dr Chen's calm mannerism and brilliant style working with kids put my son totally at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Chen. The nurses and receptionists were also welcoming and kind. Thank you for creating a positive, caring environment.
