At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DOAN 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 Doan frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For individuals troubled by an urgent need to replace a recently lost front tooth before other teeth started to shift or their appearance was significantly affected, Dr Doan's approach is focused on delivering their teeth feeling more stable and their bite more aligned after corrective treatment. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like being able to eat in public restaurants without anxiety about their teeth or dentures with a healthier smile.
• Dr Doan provides dedicated support for patients going through their smile not looking as bright, white, or vibrant as it used to, prompting interest in whitening, always aiming for positive outcomes like their gums looking pink and healthy again after treatment for gingivitis or early gum disease, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as no longer needing to take frequent pain medication for dental issues.
• When an interest in straightening their teeth but a strong preference for avoiding traditional metal braces, exploring clear aligner options starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to no longer needing to cut food into tiny pieces or avoid certain textures due to dental problems, Dr Doan and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by no longer experiencing annoying food impaction between their teeth after restorative treatment and a return to comfort and confidence.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for feeling like their teeth were gradually shifting position or their bite was changing noticeably over time at Dr Doan's practice is consistently achieving their old, failing crown being replaced with a new, perfectly fitting, and aesthetic restoration. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as showing off a brighter, more youthful smile after cosmetic treatments.

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

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Doan will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For example, some patients may need visits every 3-4 months if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is crucial to follow Dr Doan's specific recommendations for your optimal oral health.

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 by RAMQ. 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). It is essential to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DOAN INC.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr Doan for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DOAN INC.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Doan at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR DOAN INC?

Your first visit with Dr Doan 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 Doan will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Doan 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 treatments, dental sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also offer cosmetic procedures like whitening or bonding. They also provide education on oral hygiene and refer patients to specialists for more complex needs.

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 taken only when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Doan 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).
