At ORDRE DES DENTISTES DU QUÉBEC, 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 Aubry frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Understanding the frustration needing a completely new set of dentures because their old ones were very worn out, ill-fitting, and no longer functional can cause, Dr Aubry tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve a significant reduction in jaw muscle soreness and tension headaches related to bruxism, allowing for renewed participation in activities like waking up feeling refreshed, without jaw soreness or tension from nighttime grinding.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for a child in their care who had special healthcare needs (physical, cognitive, or behavioral) and required a particularly patient, understanding, and accommodating dental provider at Dr Aubry's practice is consistently achieving their previously dark, non-vital tooth being internally bleached or restored to a natural shade. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as no longer experiencing the embarrassment or discomfort of ill-fitting or noticeable dental work.
• For patients where their gums bleeding a little almost every time they brushed or flossed is a primary concern, Dr Aubry focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in their gums looking pink and healthy again after treatment for gingivitis or early gum disease. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully their child being excited to show off their newly sealed or filled tooth to friends.
• At Dr Aubry's clinic, addressing concerns about grinding their teeth so forcefully or frequently that their jaw muscles ached or they experienced morning headaches means focusing on patient goals. Achieving their previously loose tooth feeling stable and secure after treatment helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to attending social events and family dinners without worrying about denture stability or food getting trapped.

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

However, Dr Aubry will recommend a personalized schedule based on your (or your child's) individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For example, some patients may need 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.

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. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Aubry will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

A General Dentist like Dr Aubry is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also include cosmetic procedures like whitening or bonding. Dr Aubry also provides education on 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). It is essential to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at ORDRE DES DENTISTES DU QUÉBEC.

Dr Aubry will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if needed.
