About Carleton Square Dental Centre
Carleton Square Dental Centre is a dental practice on Hastings Street in Burnaby, British Columbia. A professional cleaning removes the plaque and hardened tartar that brushing and flossing cannot reach, particularly along the gumline, and is the core of routine preventive care. Most people benefit from a cleaning roughly every six months, more often for those managing gum disease.
Affordable care means the practice sets out to make treatment accessible on a self-pay basis or through a payment arrangement, rather than assuming every patient arrives with comprehensive insurance. It is worth asking directly what options exist before assuming a needed treatment is out of reach.
General dentistry covers the routine and restorative care most people need most often — examinations, cleanings, fillings, and preventive checks that catch problems while they are still small and inexpensive to treat. Regular attendance, roughly every six months for most patients, is what makes that early-catch approach actually work.
Digital X-rays are a routine part of dental care because they show what a visual exam alone cannot — decay forming between teeth, bone loss below the gumline, and how developing adult teeth are positioned in children. They use a low radiation dose and are taken on a schedule matched to individual risk rather than at every single visit.
Left untreated, small dental problems tend not to stay small. A minor cavity that would have been a straightforward filling can progress to needing root canal treatment and a crown, and early gum inflammation that would have reversed with a good cleaning can progress toward bone loss around the teeth. Catching things early is generally the difference in both effort and cost.
Continuity matters in dental care — seeing the same practice over time means your history, X-rays, and any patterns in your oral health are already on file, rather than starting from scratch at each visit. That familiarity is part of what a regular dental home offers beyond any single appointment.

Always a wonderful experience every time I have my appointment at Carleton Square Dental Centre. Everyone is accommodating and very nice. They ensure every patient feels supported, understood, and cared for. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Good service at this clinic. I went to do my check and cleaning, so far happy after two visits. I had never been watching TV and get my dental service at the same time. I just loved it.
Always friendly professional, caring staff : from the office/desk staff, the hygienist & dentist! Great at what they do- from hygiene to all dental services provided!
Paula is the best hygienist I’ve ever had. Super gentle but not afraid to let you know if she has to dig deeper. Would highly recommend her.
One of the best dental experiences I’ve ever had 👌 The doctor is incredibly patient, professional, and detail-oriented, taking the time to explain everything clearly, which really helps you feel at ease and stress-free. From the moment I walked in, the staff were welcoming and friendly, and the clinic was very clean and calming. The quality of work is outstanding—both in terms of precision and aesthetics 👏 If you’re looking for a trustworthy dentist who truly cares about their patients, I highly recommend them 🌟
After teeth cleaning, I got three cankers because of the vacuum pipe. Last time I got one canker, this time I got three. I guess the hygienist needs to learn how to use the pipe properly.
Carelton Square Dental has been my dental service for over 22 years. I would highly recommend this clinic. Today Hygienist Paula cleaned and checked my teeth. She has a very effective yet gentle technique. Paula is very friendly and makes me feel comfortable. Dr. Manocha has done many procedures from filling cavities, root canals, and caps. She provides excellent dental care. The staff are polite, friendly and efficient.
I have been seeing Dr. Joti Manocha since 2009 when I moved to British Columbia from the East Coast. Dr. Manocha is personable, caring, kind, compassionate and extremely competent in her duties and responsibilities as a dentist. I have had multiple, severe and repeated dental issues since the time I started seeing Dr. Manocha and she has resolved each and every issue I have encountered. Even in emergency situations, Dr. Manocha has made herself or a coworker available to intervene and provide appropriate dental care Services. For instance, I was on a flight and experienced an emergency dental problem. Dr. Manocha reached out to her coworker in Newfoundland, liaised with him regarding my dental history and as a result, he agreed to see me immediately and performed the necessary dental procedure . Dr. Manocha truly cares about her patients and takes the time to assess and get to know her patients, obtaining historical information where necessary. She then researches. the issues presented to her, explains her findings and recommendations and then, effectively resolves the dental issues if it is within the scope of her duty. If problems fall outside her scope of duty,, she appropriately refers patients to external care providers as necessary. I have been treated by several Dentists throughout my policing career across the country, none of whom even compare to Dr. Manocha and her service delivery. Thank you, Dr. Manocha for your expertise and outstanding service delivery. I truly appreciate you and all you have done to assist me over the years.
Wonderful visit. Thorough, honest, and kind. First time in office, great service all around from beginning to end. Highly recommend for all your dental needs!
I found Carleton Square Dental Centre on my very own. Best find ever, particularly when you been bounced around for years by Dental Clinics. Unfortunately, I'm not good with pogo sticks. Great staff, Great Dentist. Highly recommend.
