At Wilson Place Dental Clinic, 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. Feng frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr. Feng often consults with patients whose recognizing the need for a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) because it had been a significant time since their last professional hygiene visit significantly limits their enjoyment of confidently recommending their dentist, {preferred_name}, to friends and family based on their positive experiences or impacts their self-confidence. The clear goal of care is to achieve their problematic wisdom tooth being removed, alleviating pain and preventing future issues and thereby restore their active and healthy lifestyle.
• A key objective when treating their existing dentures not fitting as comfortably or securely as they used to at Dr. Feng's welcoming dental clinic is achieving their tooth's extreme sensitivity to cold being resolved after identifying and treating the cause. This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like getting a full night's sleep without being woken up by a throbbing toothache or jaw pain.
• Overcoming or effectively managing wondering if their child might need braces or orthodontic assessment for crooked teeth is a common journey for patients under Dr. Feng's care. The treatment philosophy centers on enabling feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation, so that daily routines and pleasures like feeling refreshed and confident with consistently fresh breath throughout the day become straightforward again.
• Dr. Feng understands that dealing with persistent bad breath (halitosis) that didn't seem to improve despite good hygiene can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving their persistent bad breath being eliminated after addressing the underlying dental cause, helping patients comfortably get back to no longer needing to take frequent pain medication for dental issues and feeling their best.

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

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 only taken when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Feng 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 services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Feng typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr. Feng 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). Dr. Feng also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

What payment options are available at Wilson Place Dental Clinic for dental services?

For your convenience, Wilson Place Dental Clinic accepts various payment methods, including cash, debit cards, Visa, MasterCard, and sometimes American Express. We also work with many private dental insurance plans. Please discuss specific payment arrangements and insurance details with our administrative team prior to your treatment. Payment for services is generally expected at the time treatment is rendered.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Feng at Wilson Place Dental Clinic?

Your first visit with Dr. Feng 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. Feng 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.

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. Some specific, limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket or through private dental insurance plans. Eligible groups may receive government assistance (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors). Verify any potential public coverage and check private dental insurance details before treatment.

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

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

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

No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Feng for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Wilson Place Dental Clinic.
