Steveston Village practice with an unusually preventive slant: guided biofilm therapy, saliva pH testing and airway or sleep-breathing assessment alongside standard fillings, crowns and orthodontics. Oral sedation available for longer visits.
Guided biofilm therapy, saliva pH testing and airway assessment are not the usual contents of a Richmond dental listing. Bayview Dental Centre runs those alongside the ordinary fillings, crowns and orthodontics, with oral sedation available for longer visits, and the preventive slant is what separates it from a page of practices that all describe themselves in the same words.
The airway piece deserves a sentence of its own. Assessing how someone breathes at night sits at the edge of what a general dental office normally handles, and it tends to matter to people who grind, snore, or have been told their sleep is broken without anyone finding a reason. If none of that applies, it is simply a practice with a thorough approach to hygiene, which is not nothing.
The No. 1 Road address puts it at the Steveston end of the city, in the quieter half of the village away from the boardwalk, among plazas that serve the surrounding houses rather than the visitors. Arriving at an appointment here is a simpler business than reaching a tower office in City Centre, and for families in Steveston and on the Broadmoor side that often decides it, because a dental visit with two children in tow is a logistics problem before it is a health one. The surrounding streets are walkable, which also makes this a practice you can reach on foot on a day when driving home afterwards is not appealing.

Longer reads from the editor, with the places worth a detour linked inside them.
The Night Market's final season is the loud story. The quieter one: free admission at the Cannery ends Monday, Britannia keeps summer hours through Sunday, and Steveston does sunsets better than anyone.

Nothing on Alexandra Road is a secret. It is just in a strip mall with bad signage and no patio, which is why visitors never find it. Here is how I actually use Richmond's plazas and food courts, which specialists are worth the drive, and when not to bother.

The West Dyke Trail is about five and a half kilometres of flat gravel between Terra Nova Rural Park and Garry Point, and I ride it most mornings. Here is what is actually at the north end, which way to walk so the wind is on your side, and why winter is the better season for it.
