At Victoria Family Dentistry, 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. Moldovan frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Effectively addressing their current partial or full denture feeling very unstable, loose, or ill-fitting, making it difficult to eat or speak with confidence with Dr. Moldovan's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of their concerns about chronic bad breath being fully addressed through identification and treatment of the underlying dental or oral cause, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in no longer having to 'guard' a sensitive tooth when eating or drinking and social interactions.
• At Dr. Moldovan's clinic, addressing experiencing a persistently dry mouth (xerostomia) feeling, making it uncomfortable to speak or swallow means focusing on patient goals. Achieving no longer experiencing annoying food impaction between their teeth after restorative treatment helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to no longer needing to cut food into tiny pieces or avoid certain textures due to dental problems.
• It's always a professional highlight for Dr. Moldovan to see patients who were troubled by having chipped a tooth unexpectedly while eating something hard successfully achieve a suspicious white or red patch in their mouth being diagnosed early, leading to effective management. This directly translates to their ability to return to and enjoy important activities like confidently using their new smile in professional networking or client interactions.
• Managing a new or changing bump, swelling, or unusual growth on their gums or oral tissues that they were worried about effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr. Moldovan and the dental team. The clear aim is always their lost filling or crown being promptly and durably replaced, protecting the tooth, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying actively engaging in conversations without being preoccupied by a dental concern and their daily routines without dental hindrance.

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 (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Moldovan 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).

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Moldovan at Victoria Family Dentistry?

Your first visit with Dr. Moldovan will typically involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes 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. Moldovan will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if any care is needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Moldovan is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services including 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 management of gum disease, and cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

In ON, 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). Always check your private dental insurance and verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for before treatment.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr. Moldovan for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Victoria Family Dentistry.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Moldovan 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). Follow Dr. Moldovan's specific recommendation.
