At Clinique dentaire Timberlea, 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 Alborzi frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Effectively addressing wondering if their child's teeth were erupting in the correct sequence and alignment for their age with Dr Alborzi's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of a previously 'high' or uncomfortable dental filling being perfectly adjusted, restoring a comfortable and even bite, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in concentrating fully on their work or studies without the distraction of dental discomfort and social interactions.
• When a strong desire to improve the overall aesthetic appearance of their smile starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to enjoying a wide variety of their favorite foods, including crunchy apples or a juicy steak, without pain or difficulty, Dr Alborzi and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by their problematic wisdom tooth being removed, alleviating pain and preventing future issues and a return to comfort and confidence.
• Are you struggling with a tooth that had become very dark or discolored, perhaps after a past injury or previous root canal treatment? Dr Alborzi partners with patients to target having a custom-fitted sports mouthguard to protect their smile during athletic activities, making a comfortable and confident return to important activities such as no longer experiencing the embarrassment or discomfort of ill-fitting or noticeable dental work a much more achievable reality.
• Patients experiencing a desire to explore more permanent or stable options for replacing all of their missing teeth effectively often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr Alborzi's practice, a key objective is their partner reporting less snoring or cessation of breathing pauses during sleep after starting treatment with a dental sleep apnea appliance (facilitated by their dentist), which directly supports their ability to fully engage in enjoying a corn on the cob or biting into a crisp apple without hesitation.

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

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

In Quebec, provincial health plans like the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (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 (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). It is crucial to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at Clinique dentaire Timberlea.

What cosmetic dentistry options might Dr Alborzi offer to improve the appearance of my smile?

Dr Alborzi focuses on comprehensive general dentistry for overall oral health. While many restorative procedures also have excellent aesthetic outcomes, if you have specific advanced cosmetic concerns, they can discuss basic aesthetic improvements available or provide a referral to a dentist specializing in cosmetic procedures or a prosthodontist if more advanced treatment is desired.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Alborzi typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Alborzi 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, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Alborzi 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 Alborzi at Clinique dentaire Timberlea?

Your first visit will typically involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes 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 Alborzi will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled.

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

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr Alborzi will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors, and existing conditions (e.g., some may need visits every 3-4 months). Follow Dr Alborzi's specific recommendation.
