From a toddler’s first check-up to a grandparent’s crown, your whole family’s dental care belongs in one place — with a team that knows all of you. At Howe Sound Dental Group, our family dentists in North Vancouver have cared for Lynn Valley families for more than three decades, and we’ve watched a lot of those first patients come back with children of their own.
Five dentists, one Lynn Valley clinic at 2990 Mountain Hwy — just off Lynn Valley Road and minutes from Lynn Valley Village, the library, and the neighbourhood’s schools.
Happy First Visits, Healthy Smiles for Life Gentle, patient-focused care that helps kids feel comfortable in the dental chair and builds positive habits early.
Routine Care for Every Age Twice-yearly cleanings and checkups keep the whole family's smiles healthy — and catch small problems before they grow.
Extra Protection for Growing Teeth Strengthen enamel and defend against cavities, especially important for children and teens.
Natural-Looking Repairs for Kids & Adults Tooth-coloured fillings that blend seamlessly with your smile — no metal in sight.
Protection for Young Athletes & Nighttime Grinders From hockey practice in Coal Harbour to stress-related clenching at the office, we protect every smile in the family.
Healthy Gums at Every Stage of Life From teens to seniors, we monitor and treat gum health to prevent tooth loss and protect overall wellness.
Call 604-770-3131 or send us a message. With 7:30 am starts Wednesday to Friday and Saturdays from 8 am to 2 pm, appointments fit around work, school, and everything else on the calendar.
A thorough exam, X-rays where needed, and a gentle cleaning. For young children, the first visit is mostly about getting comfortable — no pressure, no rushing.
We’ll walk you through what each person needs, from sealants for the kids to gum care for the adults, with clear timelines and costs before anything begins.
Bi-annual cleanings and annual exams keep everyone on track — and keep us watching for small changes over the years, which is exactly what long-term dentistry is for.
Howe Sound Dental Group has been part of the North Shore for more than 35 years. In that time we’ve seen patients come in as children, head off to university, and return years later with kids of their own — the kind of continuity that only happens when a practice stays put and stays consistent. Our Lynn Valley team was recently joined by Drs. Peter Kearney, Katrin Turu, and Mark Spurr, who founded West Van Dental Group together in 1983, bringing decades of West Vancouver families with them. Alongside them, Dr. Ehsan Taheri, Dr. Trevor Shen, and Dr. Andrew Gee bring modern training and a shared belief in treating every patient the way they’d treat their own family. Five dentists, one roof, and a combined experience base that covers every stage of life.
Children’s preventive care, teen orthodontics, adult restorations, implants, and sedation — all in the same clinic. No referrals across the bridge for routine family care.
We’ve been in Lynn Valley long enough that parents who came here as kids now bring their own. That’s the strongest review a family practice can have.
Open at 7:30 am Wednesday through Friday and 8 am to 2 pm Saturdays, plus an on-call dentist after hours — because a busy household can’t always make a 2 pm Tuesday.
Years of combined experience, led by dentists committed to honest, patient-first care.
Appointments available in English, Farsi, and Tagalog. Just let us know when you book.
We accept CDCP patients and offer flexible financing through Beautifi, so quality prevention is within everyone’s reach.
We recommend a first visit by age one, or within six months of the first tooth appearing. Early visits build comfort and let us catch concerns sooner.
Yes! We're happy to arrange back-to-back appointments so your entire family can be cared for in a single visit to our downtown Vancouver clinic.
Every six months for most patients. Children, seniors, or anyone with gum concerns may benefit from more frequent visits — we'll tailor a schedule for each family member.
Absolutely. Our team is known for gentle, unhurried care. We take the time to explain everything and help patients of all ages feel comfortable.
Most insurance plans cover routine family dental care, and we proudly welcome CDCP patients. Our team will help you understand your coverage before treatment.
