At Nemes Ortho, the focus is on partnering with you to achieve significant improvements in your oral health, address your specific dental concerns, and help you attain your desired smile. Dr Nemes frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr Nemes understands that dealing with experiencing sharp or lingering pain when they bit down or chewed on a specific tooth can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving understanding the cause of their tooth wear and having a plan to prevent further damage, helping patients comfortably get back to their child being able_to focus on learning and playing without the interruption of dental pain and feeling their best.
• If wanting to learn the best and most effective way to clean around their existing dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Nemes develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy no longer needing to take frequent pain medication for dental issues.
• Managing a tooth that suddenly became extremely and uncharacteristically sensitive to cold water or air, causing sharp pain effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr Nemes and the dental team. The clear aim is always their recurrent canker sores becoming less frequent or less severe with management strategies, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying playing a wind instrument with ease and comfort and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
• Patients experiencing a noticeable gap between their front teeth that they had always wished to close often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr Nemes's practice, a key objective is gaining clarity about their child's future orthodontic needs and the optimal timing for any potential treatment, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in their ability to enunciate words clearly for better communication.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Nemes, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall wellness objectives. Dr Nemes is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Nemes 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, some patients may need visits every 3-4 months if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is crucial to follow Dr Nemes's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Nemes Ortho directly to arrange their visit with Dr Nemes.

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 for the general population. Some specific, limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). It is essential to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and always check the details of your private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at Nemes Ortho.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Nemes at Nemes Ortho?

Your first visit with Dr Nemes will typically involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes a review of 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 Nemes will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Nemes is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and potentially cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). They also provide education on oral hygiene and refer patients to specialists for more complex needs.

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 also used. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Nemes 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).
