- What services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Cybulski typically provide?
- A General Dentist like Dr. Cybulski 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, dental sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also offer cosmetic procedures like teeth whitening or bonding. Dr. Cybulski also educates patients on proper oral hygiene and will refer patients to specialists for more complex needs. They may offer specialized services in areas like General Dentistry with Certified Sedation Options based on additional training.
- 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 taken only when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Cybulski 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. Cybulski at Lakeside Dental?
- At your initial appointment, Dr. Cybulski and the team at Lakeside Dental 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. Cybulski will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
- How often should I (or my child) visit Dr. Cybulski for a check-up and cleaning?
- For most patients, check-ups and cleanings every 6 months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr. Cybulski will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may need visits every 3-4 months (e.g., those managing active gum disease or at high caries risk), while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is important to follow Dr. Cybulski's specific recommendation.
- Do I need a referral from my general dentist to see a dental specialist (e.g., Orthodontist, Periodontist)?
- While some dental specialists may accept patients directly, it is often recommended, and sometimes required by the specialist or insurance plans, to have a referral from your general dentist like Dr. Cybulski. A referral ensures the specialist has relevant background information and that the visit is appropriate. If Dr. Cybulski identifies a need for specialist care, they will provide a referral to ensure coordinated care. If unsure, check with the specific specialist's office or your insurance provider.
- I'm very anxious about dental visits. Does Dr. Cybulski offer any sedation options?
- Yes, Dr. Cybulski understands that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many patients. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable, Lakeside Dental offers various sedation options, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas). Please discuss your anxiety openly with Dr. Cybulski during your consultation so they can determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.
- 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. Some specific, 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 provided by employers), or through government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Always verify your eligibility for any public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.
- Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Cybulski?
- No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Cybulski for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Lakeside Dental.
