At Campus Dental - Humber College, 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. Trotti frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For those affected by feeling like food consistently and annoyingly got stuck between certain teeth after meals, Dr. Trotti provides solutions that lead to the dark spot on their tooth being treated, preventing a larger cavity from forming. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to their dental implants feeling and functioning just like their natural teeth.

• If needing practical advice and guidance on how to properly care for their toddler's newly erupted first teeth has unfortunately put their child being able to participate in classroom activities without dental distractions on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr. Trotti works closely with patients towards attaining their gums appearing consistently healthy, pink, and firm, without any signs of puffiness or inflammation, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Trotti 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 oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It's crucial to follow Dr. Trotti's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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 limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered by OHIP. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Check your eligibility for any potential public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before starting treatment at Campus Dental - Humber College.

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Trotti is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages. They offer a wide range of services, including preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, 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 (like whitening or bonding). General Dentists also educate patients on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs. Dr. Trotti may offer specialized services in areas like General Dentistry with Certified Sedation Options based on additional training.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Trotti at Campus Dental - Humber College?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive dental examination, including 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. Trotti will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed during this visit or scheduled for a subsequent one.

What are the most effective ways to prevent cavities (tooth decay)?

Cavity prevention involves consistent home care and regular professional visits. Brush for two minutes twice daily with fluoride toothpaste, floss daily, minimize sugary snacks and drinks, and attend regular check-ups and cleanings. Dr. Trotti might also suggest dental sealants or in-office fluoride applications for extra protection, especially for children.

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

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays using minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Trotti determines the frequency based on your individual needs and follows guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

Yes, Dr. Trotti understands dental anxiety. Campus Dental - Humber College offers various sedation options to help patients feel more relaxed and comfortable. These may include nitrous oxide (laughing gas), oral conscious sedation, or IV sedation. Please discuss your anxiety with Dr. Trotti during your consultation to determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.
