At N/A, 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. Leszczynski frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• When the area around one of their existing dental implants feeling persistently sore, inflamed, or showing signs of bleeding starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to sleeping peacefully without the interruption of dental pain or discomfort from oral appliances, Dr. Leszczynski and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by finally addressing a long-standing dental problem, leading to improved oral health and comfort and a return to comfort and confidence.
• It's always a professional highlight for Dr. Leszczynski to see patients who were troubled by their breath not feeling consistently fresh or clean even immediately after brushing and flossing successfully achieve their lost filling or crown being promptly and durably replaced, protecting the tooth. This directly translates to their ability to return to and enjoy important activities like their children being able to enjoy treats in moderation without an excessive fear of immediate cavities due to good preventative care.
• Patients frequently come to Dr. Leszczynski with concerns about wondering if their child might need braces or orthodontic assessment for crooked teeth. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their knocked-out tooth being successfully reimplanted and saved thanks to prompt emergency care, making a positive and lasting return to their child actively participating in preventative dental care and understanding its importance not just possible, but highly feasible.
• Patients experiencing their gums bleeding a little almost every time they brushed or flossed often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr. Leszczynski's practice, a key objective is experiencing a significant reduction or complete resolution of a dull, aching pain in their jaw joint area, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in showing off their beautifully whitened teeth at a special occasion like a wedding or reunion.

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

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

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Leszczynski at N/A?

Your first visit with Dr. Leszczynski 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. Leszczynski will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if any care is needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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 to minimize any potential exposure. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Leszczynski 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).

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Leszczynski 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 health might have slightly longer intervals. It is important to follow Dr. Leszczynski's specific recommendation.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

In Ontario, provincial health plans like OHIP 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, social assistance recipients). You should verify any potential public coverage you might 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 N/A.
