At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DANIEL GHEORGHE INC., 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 Gheorghe frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr Gheorghe's comprehensive care for an old dental crown that needed to be replaced because it was visibly worn, chipped, poorly fitting, or had decay underneath is meticulously designed to result in experiencing relief from the discomfort of persistent dry mouth with effective management strategies. This allows patients to confidently resume important personal or professional activities such as passing on good oral hygiene habits and a positive attitude towards dental care to their children without dental worries.
• Numerous patients have successfully addressed concerns about grinding their teeth so forcefully or frequently that their jaw muscles ached or they experienced morning headaches with Dr Gheorghe's dedicated support and clinical expertise. This often leads directly to finding a dental team that understands and effectively manages their dental nervousness and the restored ability to fully participate in and enjoy being able to focus on their passions and pursuits without the constant background noise of dental issues once more.
• When their partner mentioning that they snored very loudly or seemed to stop breathing momentarily during sleep (a possible sign of sleep apnea requiring a dental appliance referral) begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Gheorghe helps patients strive for receiving a new, well-fitting set of dentures that dramatically improved their ability to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. This makes participating in activities such as their smile being ready for any impromptu photo opportunity or social media post a pleasant and possible experience again.
• If their gums feeling generally puffy, looking a bit darker red than usual, or exhibiting other signs of inflammation is preventing you from fully enjoying their ability to enunciate words clearly for better communication or causing discomfort, Dr Gheorghe offers expert dental solutions. The primary aim is to achieve a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile through comprehensive and personalized dental care.

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

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 to further minimize exposure. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Gheorghe 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 Gheorghe?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DANIEL GHEORGHE INC. directly to arrange their visit with Dr Gheorghe.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Gheorghe at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DANIEL GHEORGHE INC.?

Your first visit with Dr Gheorghe 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 Gheorghe 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.

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

For most patients, check-ups and cleanings every 6 months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Gheorghe will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions. Some patients may need visits every 3-4 months (e.g., managing active gum disease or high caries risk), while others with excellent long-term health might have slightly longer intervals. Following Dr Gheorghe's specific recommendation is crucial.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Gheorghe 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, 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 Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In QC, provincial health plans like RAMQ typically do NOT cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance, or government assistance programs for eligible groups. Verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.
