At CLINIQUE D'ORTHODONTIE BROSSARD, 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 Boivin frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• If waking up frequently with a sore jaw, facial muscle tenderness, or tension headaches, possibly from teeth grinding is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Boivin develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at their problematic wisdom tooth being removed, alleviating pain and preventing future issues. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy their dentures allowing them to enjoy a more diverse and nutritious diet.
• Effectively addressing their child having a severe toothache that kept them up at night and required immediate attention with Dr Boivin's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in knowing their teeth are well-protected from decay and damage and social interactions.
• Patients frequently come to Dr Boivin with concerns about ongoing concerns about bad breath that they believed might be related to a hidden dental infection or persistent gum problem. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their old, uncomfortable dental bridge being replaced with a well-fitting and aesthetic new one, making a positive and lasting return to enjoying a wide variety of their favorite foods, including crunchy apples or a juicy steak, without pain or difficulty not just possible, but highly feasible.
• Dr Boivin understands that dealing with a desire for a more permanent, comfortable, and functional solution than their current removable partial denture can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving having a comfortable, stable, and functional full-mouth tooth replacement solution, like implant-supported dentures, helping patients comfortably get back to feeling more outgoing and engaging in conversations more readily and feeling their best.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Boivin, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr Boivin is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

At your initial appointment, Dr Boivin and the team at CLINIQUE D'ORTHODONTIE BROSSARD 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.

What should I do if I have a dental emergency outside of CLINIQUE D'ORTHODONTIE BROSSARD's regular office hours?

If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency (e.g., severe uncontrolled bleeding, difficulty breathing due to facial swelling, significant facial trauma), please go to the nearest hospital emergency department or call 911 immediately. For urgent dental issues that are not life-threatening but require prompt attention outside of CLINIQUE D'ORTHODONTIE BROSSARD’s hours (such as severe toothache, a knocked-out tooth, a dental abscess with moderate swelling, or a broken tooth causing sharp pain), please call our main office number at (450) 445-3414. Our voicemail message may provide instructions for emergency contact with Dr Boivin or another on-call dentist, or direct you to an emergency dental service available in the Brossard area.

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 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 through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and always check your private dental insurance details before treatment at CLINIQUE D'ORTHODONTIE BROSSARD.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact CLINIQUE D'ORTHODONTIE BROSSARD directly to arrange their visit with Dr Boivin.

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 Boivin 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 experience jaw pain, clicking, and headaches. Can Dr Boivin help with TMJ/TMD issues?

Dr Boivin can perform an initial assessment of your jaw pain and related symptoms. Depending on the findings and complexity, they may offer some conservative management advice or provide a referral to a dentist or specialist with advanced training in TMJ disorders if more specialized care is indicated.

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

Generally, every 6 months for most patients for preventative care. Dr Boivin will recommend a personalized schedule based on 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). Follow Dr Boivin's specific recommendation.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Boivin 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.
