Dentist Recommendations?

Frightened foreign girl with growing wisdom tooth seeking good (family) dentist with a light hand and a belief in the benefits of anaesthetic and painkillers, one who accepts the AMS/GSS dental plan, and who is preferably in the Vancouver region.

So one of my greatest fears has occurred and one of my other two remaining wisdom teeth is making a showing. I was told by my dentist at home that all my wisdom teeth will need to be removed sooner or later — I always kind of hoped it would happen while I was visiting Hong Kong, but no. I have a feeling I need to get this out soon.

I’ve heard too many stories about Canadian dentists that terrorised me, though: taking all four wisdom teeth out without an anaesthetic, etc etc etc. Maybe I am a big wuss. I won’t deny that one. But I do not want to feel my jaw being sliced open. And I am scared.

So I need a good dentist. Recommendations are wonderful! It’s tough not having someone so necessary to go to when you need it.
