• Overcoming or effectively managing their partner mentioning that they snored very loudly or seemed to stop breathing momentarily during sleep (a possible sign of sleep apnea requiring a dental appliance referral) is a common journey for patients under Dr. Reinblatt's care. The treatment philosophy centers on enabling understanding the cause of their tooth wear and having a plan to prevent further damage, so that daily routines and pleasures like participating actively in sports without fear of dental injury, especially with a custom mouthguard become straightforward again.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for recognizing the need for a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) because it had been a significant time since their last professional hygiene visit at Dr. Reinblatt's practice is consistently achieving their extensive dental work being completed efficiently and comfortably, often with the help of sedation. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as their ability to taste and appreciate food fully, unmarred by dental pain or infection.
• At Dr. Reinblatt's clinic, addressing a new or changing bump, swelling, or unusual growth on their gums or oral tissues that they were worried about means focusing on patient goals. Achieving a suspicious white or red patch in their mouth being diagnosed early, leading to effective management helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to their dental implants feeling and functioning just like their natural teeth.
• A key objective when treating their jaw making clicking, popping, or grating sounds when they opened their mouth wide or chewed at Dr. Reinblatt's welcoming dental clinic is achieving their smile looking noticeably brighter and whiter after professional whitening treatment. This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like feeling that their investment in cosmetic or restorative dentistry was truly worthwhile for their self-esteem.

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 through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Check your eligibility for public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before treatment at Lake Vista Square Dental Office.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Reinblatt 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. Follow Dr. Reinblatt's specific recommendation.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Reinblatt at Lake Vista Square Dental Office?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive dental examination, including 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. Reinblatt will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can book an appointment directly with Lake Vista Square Dental Office.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays using minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Reinblatt will determine the frequency based on your individual needs and history, adhering to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.
