WorkSafeBC, often called WCB, provides coverage for injuries that occur in the workplace. This can include dental injuries when a tooth, jaw, or surrounding tissue is affected during a work-related incident.
At Dentist at False Creek, we assist patients with WCB dental claims in Vancouver by explaining how coverage applies and what steps are involved. Our goal is to help you focus on recovery while we support the administrative process.
Steps to File a WCB Dental Claim at Dentist At False Creek
Filing a WCB dental claim begins with reporting your workplace injury and receiving a claim number. When you contact our clinic, sharing this information helps us prepare for your visit and documentation needs.
During your appointment, we assess the dental injury and record clinical findings. If approvals are required, our team submits the necessary details and keeps you informed throughout the process.
Common Dental Injuries Covered Under WCB Claims

Each claim is reviewed individually. We explain what treatment is recommended and what may need approval before proceeding.
