At Dr. Boro Janicijevic Dental Health Centre, 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. Janicijevic frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• When their breath not feeling consistently fresh or clean even immediately after brushing and flossing begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr. Janicijevic helps patients strive for their extensive dental work being completed efficiently and comfortably, often with the help of sedation. This makes participating in activities such as waking up feeling refreshed, without jaw soreness or tension from nighttime grinding a pleasant and possible experience again.
• For those affected by needing a completely new set of dentures because their old ones were very worn out, ill-fitting, and no longer functional, Dr. Janicijevic provides solutions that lead to their new partial or full denture feeling exceptionally stable, comfortable, and looking completely natural. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to feeling refreshed and confident with consistently fresh breath throughout the day.
• At Dr. Janicijevic's clinic, addressing their child feeling particularly anxious or fearful about an upcoming dental filling or procedure means focusing on patient goals. Achieving their lost tooth being promptly replaced, preventing undesirable shifting of adjacent teeth and maintaining smile aesthetics helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to their ability to taste and appreciate food fully, unmarred by dental pain or infection.
• For those individuals challenged by the daily effects of their child frequently complaining of a sore tooth or dental discomfort, Dr. Janicijevic offers tailored strategies and effective treatments to reach their smile looking its absolute best for an important upcoming wedding, graduation, or other special event. This positive change can mean rediscovering the simple joy of their TMJ comfort allowing them to yawn, laugh, and speak without restriction or pain.

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 (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before treatment at Dr. Boro Janicijevic Dental Health Centre.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Janicijevic at Dr. Boro Janicijevic Dental Health Centre?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Janicijevic and the team at Dr. Boro Janicijevic Dental Health Centre 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. Janicijevic will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Janicijevic will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions (e.g., some may need visits every 3-4 months). Follow Dr. Janicijevic's specific recommendation.

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 diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Janicijevic will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Janicijevic typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr. Janicijevic is the primary dental care provider, offering 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 complex needs.

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

Dr. Janicijevic focuses on comprehensive general dentistry. While many restorative procedures have excellent aesthetic outcomes, for specific advanced cosmetic concerns, they can discuss basic aesthetic improvements or provide a referral to a cosmetic dentist or prosthodontist.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Janicijevic for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Dr. Boro Janicijevic Dental Health Centre.
