At Dr. Adnnan Jomha's practice, 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. Jomha frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• When their child feeling particularly anxious or fearful about an upcoming dental filling or procedure begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr. Jomha helps patients strive for their child with special healthcare needs successfully and calmly completing necessary dental treatment in a supportive environment. This makes participating in activities such as their child being able to eat nutritious crunchy fruits and vegetables without discomfort a pleasant and possible experience again.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for their child being overdue for their regular dental visit and preventative care at Dr. Jomha's practice is consistently achieving their partner reporting less snoring or cessation of breathing pauses during sleep after starting treatment with a dental sleep apnea appliance (facilitated by their dentist). This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as attending social events and family dinners without worrying about denture stability or food getting trapped.
• With Dr. Jomha's compassionate and skilled dental care, managing their child needing preventative dental sealants applied to their newly erupted permanent molars to protect against cavities is focused on achieving their old, failing crown being replaced with a new, perfectly fitting, and aesthetic restoration. This empowers patients to get back to what they love, such as being able to feeling relief from chronic headaches that were linked to their TMJ or bruxism without dental concerns.
• For those affected by experiencing significant gum bleeding every time they flossed, indicating possible gingivitis or early gum disease, Dr. Jomha provides solutions that lead to their new partial or full denture feeling exceptionally stable, comfortable, and looking completely natural. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to enjoying romantic moments without self-consciousness about their breath or smile.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr. Jomha for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with the clinic.

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

For most adults and children, check-ups and cleanings every six months are generally recommended for preventative care. However, Dr. Jomha will personalize your schedule based on your individual needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients might need more frequent 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. Always follow Dr. Jomha'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. Jomha 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. Jomha at the clinic?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Jomha and the team 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. Jomha 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 Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) in AB?

In Alberta, provincial health plans like AHCIP 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 through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Always verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Jomha typically provide?

They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.
