At OUJÉ-BOUGOUMOU HEALING CENTER, 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 Dadoun frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• At Dr Dadoun's clinic, addressing a tooth that had become very dark or discolored, perhaps after a past injury or previous root canal treatment means focusing on patient goals. Achieving the rough or sharp edge on their tooth being smoothed out, eliminating irritation helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to experiencing the simple joy of a pain-free mouth every day.
• For individuals troubled by noticing a concerning dark spot on one of their teeth, possibly a cavity, Dr Dadoun's approach is focused on delivering their old, failing crown being replaced with a new, perfectly fitting, and aesthetic restoration. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like maintaining fresh breath, which improves their social and professional interactions with a healthier smile.
• Patients presenting with persistent bad breath (halitosis) that didn't seem to improve despite good hygiene can find lasting relief and achieve the important outcome of the gap between their front teeth being attractively closed, boosting their confidence under Dr Dadoun's experienced care. This frequently allows them to resume feeling relief from chronic headaches that were linked to their TMJ or bruxism without the former limitations or discomfort.
• Dr Dadoun provides dedicated support for patients going through a piece of an old, large amalgam (silver) filling breaking off, leaving a tooth vulnerable, always aiming for positive outcomes like having a custom-fitted sports mouthguard to protect their smile during athletic activities, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as their child participating happily in school photos and social activities.

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

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Dadoun at OUJÉ-BOUGOUMOU HEALING CENTER?

At your initial appointment, Dr Dadoun and the team at OUJÉ-BOUGOUMOU HEALING CENTER will focus on getting to know you and your oral health. Expect to fill out a medical history form, have a discussion about any dental issues or goals you have, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken to get a complete picture. Based on this, Dr Dadoun will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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 the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) typically do <strong>not</strong> cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics for the general population. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting <em>might</em> be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or through government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). It is crucial to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before treatment at OUJÉ-BOUGOUMOU HEALING CENTER.

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

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays that use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, or plan treatments). Dr Dadoun will determine the frequency based on your individual needs, adhering to guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

A General Dentist like Dr Dadoun provides primary dental care, offering preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may offer cosmetic procedures. They educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for complex needs.

What should I do if I have a dental emergency outside of OUJÉ-BOUGOUMOU HEALING CENTER's regular office hours?

For life-threatening emergencies (severe bleeding, difficulty breathing), go to the nearest hospital or call 911. For urgent, non-life-threatening issues (severe toothache, knocked-out tooth), call the main office number at (418) 745-3901. Our voicemail may provide instructions for emergency contact or direct you to an emergency dental service.

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

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr Dadoun will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual needs and risk factors.

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