What are dental implants, and how do I know if I'm a suitable candidate?

Dental implants are small, medical-grade titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for fixed (crowns, bridges) or removable replacement teeth (dentures). Good candidates generally have healthy gums and adequate jawbone density to support the implant, and are in good general health. Dr. Devyatov can perform a comprehensive assessment, which may include X-rays or 3D CBCT imaging, to evaluate your suitability. Dr. Devyatov can discuss implants as an option and refer you to an implant specialist (like a Periodontist or Oral Surgeon) if appropriate.

I'm very anxious about dental visits. Does Dr. Devyatov offer any sedation options?

Yes, Dr. Devyatov understands that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many patients. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable, Morrisburg Dental may offer various sedation options. Please discuss your anxiety openly with Dr. Devyatov during your consultation so they can determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.

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

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

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Devyatov is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services including: 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 cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). They also educate on oral hygiene and refer 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 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. Devyatov 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).

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

In ON, 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 or government assistance programs for eligible groups. Always check the details of your private dental insurance and verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for before starting treatment.

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

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr. Devyatov will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors, and existing conditions. Follow Dr. Devyatov's specific recommendation.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Devyatov at Morrisburg Dental?

At your initial appointment, expect to fill out a medical history form, discuss dental issues or goals, and undergo a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr. Devyatov will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
