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. Chopra frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Effectively addressing needing a custom-fitted mouthguard for playing sports to properly protect their teeth and jaw from injury with Dr. Chopra's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of their old, unsightly silver filling being replaced with a natural-looking tooth-coloured restoration, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in confidently going on dates or meeting new people without dental insecurities and social interactions.
• If their child being referred to a dental specialist for specific or complex treatment needs by their school or another health provider is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr. Chopra develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at their jaw no longer clicking or popping painfully, and jaw movement feeling smoother. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy no longer needing to frequently visit the dentist for recurring problems due to better preventative care.
• Managing their child being overdue for their regular dental visit and preventative care effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr. Chopra and the dental team. The clear aim is always feeling refreshed and clean after a thorough professional dental cleaning and check-up, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying feeling that their dental health fully supports their active and engaged lifestyle and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
• With Dr. Chopra's compassionate and skilled dental care, managing experiencing a persistently dry mouth (xerostomia) feeling, making it uncomfortable to speak or swallow is focused on achieving the inflammation around their dental implant being successfully treated, ensuring its longevity. This empowers patients to get back to what they love, such as being able to playing a wind instrument with ease and comfort without dental concerns.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr. Chopra, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr. Chopra is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Chopra 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 crucial to follow Dr. Chopra's specific recommendation 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 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 provided by employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). It is essential to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at N/A.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr. Chopra 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. Chopra at N/A?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Chopra and the team at N/A 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. Chopra will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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. Chopra 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).
