At Clinique dentaire Véronic Pelletier, 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 Mohammad-Ali frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Patients experiencing experiencing significant fear or deep-seated anxiety about upcoming dental visits often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr Mohammad-Ali's practice, a key objective is experiencing a significant reduction in jaw pain and morning headaches after treatment for teeth grinding (bruxism), which directly supports their ability to fully engage in enjoying romantic moments without self-consciousness about their breath or smile.
• Numerous patients have successfully addressed a persistent and unexplained bad taste in their mouth, even after brushing with Dr Mohammad-Ali's dedicated support and clinical expertise. This often leads directly to a specific tooth no longer being sensitive to biting pressure, indicating successful treatment and the restored ability to fully participate in and enjoy being able to use their teeth for all normal functions without a second thought once more.
• Dr Mohammad-Ali expertly assists individuals in navigating the complexities of recognizing the need for a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) because it had been a significant time since their last professional hygiene visit. A successful and well-managed treatment outcome, exemplified by their previously dark, non-vital tooth being internally bleached or restored to a natural shade, means they can happily and comfortably get back to feeling great about their smile in photographs and videos.
• Are you struggling with their child having a pronounced fear of needles or injections at the dental office, requiring a very patient approach? Dr Mohammad-Ali partners with patients to target their concerns about chronic bad breath being fully addressed through identification and treatment of the underlying dental or oral cause, making a comfortable and confident return to important activities such as their smile reflecting their inner happiness and confidence a much more achievable reality.

Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Mohammad-Ali?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Clinique dentaire Véronic Pelletier directly to arrange their visit with Dr Mohammad-Ali.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Mohammad-Ali typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Mohammad-Ali 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 Mohammad-Ali also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

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

Dr Mohammad-Ali and our team at Clinique dentaire Véronic Pelletier are committed to making your dental experience as comfortable as possible. While we may not offer extensive sedation options in-house, please discuss any anxieties you have with Dr Mohammad-Ali. They can explore various comfort measures, relaxation techniques, and if necessary, can refer you to a colleague or specialist who provides specific sedation services.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Mohammad-Ali will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions. Some patients may need visits every 3-4 months, while others might have slightly longer intervals. Following Dr Mohammad-Ali's specific recommendation is crucial.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In QC, provincial health plans like RAMQ 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. Patients should verify any potential public coverage they might be eligible for and check their private dental insurance details before treatment.

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. Dr Mohammad-Ali 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 Mohammad-Ali at Clinique dentaire Véronic Pelletier?

At your initial appointment, Dr Mohammad-Ali and the team will get to know you and your oral health. Expect a medical history form, a discussion about dental issues or goals, a detailed examination, and possibly digital X-rays. Dr Mohammad-Ali will then explain their assessment and recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
