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

A General Dentist like Dr Khuon is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care such as check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, and sealants. Restorative treatments encompass fillings, crowns, and bridges. Dr Khuon also performs basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, and provides initial management of gum disease. Cosmetic procedures, like whitening or bonding, may also be offered. Furthermore, Dr Khuon educates patients on proper oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists for more complex needs.

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 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 might be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at Clinique dentaire Chamroeun Khuon.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Khuon will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., 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. It's essential to follow Dr Khuon's specific recommendations.

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 during the procedure. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Khuon 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).

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

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

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Khuon at Clinique dentaire Chamroeun Khuon?

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 Khuon will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed during this visit or scheduled for a subsequent appointment.
