• Patients frequently come to Dr. Sahi with concerns about concerns about how their bite felt when they chewed, or if their teeth were meeting correctly. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve experiencing a significant reduction or complete resolution of a dull, aching pain in their jaw joint area, making a positive and lasting return to their smile being a positive asset in their personal and professional life not just possible, but highly feasible.
• For those affected by their smile not looking as bright, white, or vibrant as it used to, prompting interest in whitening, Dr. Sahi provides solutions that lead to their smile looking noticeably brighter and whiter after professional whitening treatment. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to knowing their teeth are well-protected from decay and damage.

• Dr. Sahi often consults with patients whose experiencing diffuse facial pain or muscle tenderness that they suspected might be related to their jaw joint or bite significantly limits their enjoyment of smiling confidently in photos and social situations without any self-consciousness or impacts their self-confidence. The clear goal of care is to achieve their child receiving necessary specialized dental care thanks to a timely referral and thereby restore their active and healthy lifestyle.

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Sahi 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). Dr. Sahi also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers 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, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Sahi 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. Sahi at the clinic?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Sahi 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, followed by a detailed examination. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr. Sahi will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

Typically, no referral is needed to see a general dentist. Patients can contact the clinic directly to arrange a visit with Dr. Sahi.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) in AB?

In AB, provincial health plans like AHCIP typically do NOT cover most routine or major dental procedures in private clinics. Some limited dental surgeries in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance, or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors). Verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

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

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr. Sahi will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual needs, risk factors, and existing conditions (e.g., more frequent visits for active gum disease or high caries risk). Follow Dr. Sahi's specific recommendation.
