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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every six months. However, Dr Nguyen-Cuu will personalize this recommendation based on your individual needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may require more frequent 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 between appointments. Following Dr Nguyen-Cuu's specific advice is crucial for optimal oral health.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Nguyen-Cuu typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Nguyen-Cuu is your primary dental care provider, offering a wide range of services for patients of all ages. This includes preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, dental sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and potentially some cosmetic procedures (like teeth whitening or bonding). Dr Nguyen-Cuu also provides valuable education on oral hygiene and will refer you 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 always used to minimize any potential exposure. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan more complex treatments. Dr Nguyen-Cuu will determine the appropriate frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Nguyen-Cuu at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR. DAVID LUONG?

Your first visit will 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 Nguyen-Cuu will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and develop a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed during this visit or scheduled for a subsequent appointment.

Do I need a referral from my general dentist to see a dental specialist (e.g., Orthodontist, Periodontist)?

While some dental specialists may accept patients directly, it's often recommended, and sometimes required by the specialist or your insurance plan, to have a referral from your general dentist like Dr Nguyen-Cuu. A referral ensures the specialist has the necessary background information and that the visit is appropriate. If Dr Nguyen-Cuu determines you need specialist care, they will provide a referral to ensure coordinated and efficient treatment.

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 RAMQ typically do NOT cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or through government assistance programs for eligible individuals (e.g., low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). It is essential to verify your eligibility for any public coverage and to check the details of your private dental insurance before treatment.

Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Nguyen-Cuu?

No, a referral is not needed to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. You can contact CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR. DAVID LUONG directly to arrange your visit with Dr Nguyen-Cuu.
