• Dr Emond understands that dealing with needing urgent treatment for an infected or abscessed tooth to avoid losing it and to relieve severe pain can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving feeling well-equipped with advice on how to care for their toddler's developing teeth, helping patients comfortably get back to no longer needing to take frequent pain medication for dental issues and feeling their best.

• Dr Emond often consults with patients whose their teeth appearing noticeably longer than before, often a sign of progressive gum recession significantly limits their enjoyment of laughing openly and heartily without worrying about the appearance of their teeth or impacts their self-confidence. The clear goal of care is to achieve experiencing complete relief from pain when biting down on a previously problematic tooth and thereby restore their active and healthy lifestyle.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Clinique dentaire Caroline Emond directly to arrange their visit with Dr Emond.

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 to further minimize exposure. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Emond 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).

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 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 through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). 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 before starting treatment.

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

For most patients, check-ups and cleanings every 6 months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Emond 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 Emond's specific recommendation is essential.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Emond at Clinique dentaire Caroline Emond?

At your initial appointment, Dr Emond and the team 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, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Based on this, Dr Emond will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
