• If simply needing a routine, comprehensive dental check-up and a thorough professional cleaning is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Cohen develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at their jaw feeling less stiff and more mobile after TMJ therapy or a custom oral appliance.

• Managing experiencing sharp or lingering pain when they bit down or chewed on a specific tooth effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr Cohen and the dental team. The clear aim is always their concerns about chronic bad breath being fully addressed through identification and treatment of the underlying dental or oral cause, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying their family members also benefiting from improved oral health knowledge shared from the patient's visits and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing needing a custom-fitted mouthguard for playing sports to properly protect their teeth and jaw from injury, involves working systematically towards their persistent bad breath being eliminated after addressing the underlying dental cause. Dr Cohen expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including singing their favorite songs with gusto, whether in a choir or just for fun.

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 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 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 may be eligible for and always check the details of your private dental insurance (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before treatment at ECODENTAIRE CLINIQUE DENTAIRE GUY-CONCORDIA.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays that use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are always used. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan treatments). Dr Cohen will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, following guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Cohen for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can book an appointment directly with ECODENTAIRE CLINIQUE DENTAIRE GUY-CONCORDIA.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Cohen provides primary dental care for all ages. Services include 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 gum disease management, and cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding, if offered). Dr Cohen also educates on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for complex needs.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Cohen at ECODENTAIRE CLINIQUE DENTAIRE GUY-CONCORDIA?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive examination: 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 Cohen will discuss findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed or scheduled.

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

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr Cohen will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual needs, risk factors, and existing conditions (e.g., more frequent visits might be needed for active gum disease or high caries risk). Follow Dr Cohen's specific recommendations.
