What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Brousseau typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Brousseau is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care such as check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, and sealants. Restorative treatments encompass fillings, crowns, and bridges. Dr Brousseau also performs basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, and provides initial management of gum disease. Cosmetic procedures, like whitening or bonding, may also be offered. Furthermore, Dr Brousseau educates patients on proper oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists when more complex needs arise.

Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Brousseau?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact BROUSSEAU & GAUTHIER ORTHODONTISTES INC directly to arrange their visit with Dr Brousseau.

How often should I (or my child) visit Dr Brousseau for a check-up and cleaning?

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Brousseau will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For example, patients managing active gum disease or at high risk for cavities may need more frequent visits (every 3-4 months), while those with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is crucial to follow Dr Brousseau's specific recommendations.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays which use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are always used. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Brousseau will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Brousseau at BROUSSEAU & GAUTHIER ORTHODONTISTES INC?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes reviewing your medical and dental history, a thorough check of your teeth, gums, jaw, and soft tissues (including an oral cancer screening), and any necessary X-rays. Dr Brousseau will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed during this visit or scheduled for a subsequent appointment.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In Quebec, provincial health plans like RAMQ typically do NOT cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance plans (often from employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., low-income families with children, some seniors). It's essential to verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment at BROUSSEAU & GAUTHIER ORTHODONTISTES INC.
