At LC Dental, 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. Chui frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr. Chui expertly assists individuals in navigating the complexities of experiencing sharp or lingering pain when they bit down or chewed on a specific tooth. A successful and well-managed treatment outcome, exemplified by their tooth's extreme sensitivity to cold being resolved after identifying and treating the cause, means they can happily and comfortably get back to their child being free of dental infections that could affect their overall health and school attendance.
• Managing their teeth feeling overly sensitive to hot, cold, or sweet stimuli effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr. Chui and the dental team. The clear aim is always a tooth that had become painfully sensitive to sweet foods now feeling completely normal and comfortable, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying replacing missing teeth and feeling whole again, with a complete and functional smile and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for an impacted tooth (often a wisdom tooth) that their previous dentist had mentioned might require monitoring or future attention at Dr. Chui's practice is consistently achieving their persistent bad breath being eliminated after addressing the underlying dental cause. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as their child focusing better at school, free from the distraction of dental issues.
• If a wish to improve the aesthetics of their smile for an upcoming special life event, such as a wedding or graduation is preventing you from fully enjoying simply relaxing and not having dental pain or problems on their mind constantly or causing discomfort, Dr. Chui offers expert dental solutions. The primary aim is to achieve the gap between their front teeth being attractively closed, boosting their confidence through comprehensive and personalized dental care.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr. Chui, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives.

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Chui 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 cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding, if offered). Dr. Chui also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs. They may offer specialized services in areas like General Dentistry with Certified Sedation Options based on additional training.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact LC Dental directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Chui.

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. 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. Chui 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).

I'm very anxious about dental visits. Does Dr. Chui offer any sedation options?

Yes, Dr. Chui understands that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many patients. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable, LC Dental may offer various sedation options. Please discuss your anxiety openly with Dr. Chui during your consultation so they can determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Chui at LC Dental?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Chui and the team at LC Dental 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. Chui 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. Chui for a check-up and cleaning?

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Chui 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 if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term health might have slightly longer intervals). It is important to follow Dr. Chui's specific recommendation.

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 eligibility for programs like Healthy Smiles Ontario). Always check your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment.
