• Are you struggling with a desire for professional advice on how to effectively stop their child's cavities from getting worse or prevent new ones from forming? Dr Stroe partners with patients to target their receding gums being stabilized or treated, protecting their tooth roots, making a comfortable and confident return to important activities such as feeling comfortable with close-up interactions and conversations a much more achievable reality.
• Many patients schedule a consultation with Dr Stroe when they first notice a tooth that suddenly felt rough, had a sharp or jagged edge, or was causing irritation. Through personalized dental care, the goal is to achieve the sore spot or ulcer in their mouth healing completely after diagnosis and treatment, enabling them to once again enjoy waking up feeling refreshed, without jaw soreness or tension from nighttime grinding without hesitation.
• Dr Stroe understands that dealing with their child frequently complaining of a sore tooth or dental discomfort can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving their child calmly receiving dental injections due to a patient and skilled approach, helping patients comfortably get back to their family members also benefiting from improved oral health knowledge shared from the patient's visits and feeling their best.

The clinic is situated near local shops and community amenities and is easily accessible via major local public transit routes. Convenient patient parking is typically available near the clinic.

Does Centre dentaire Dre Daniela Stroe offer direct billing to dental insurance companies (assignment of benefits)?

While we do not offer direct billing to insurance companies at this time (meaning payment in full is due at the time of service), we will provide you with all the necessary standardized dental claim forms and detailed official receipts. You can then easily submit these to your dental insurance provider for prompt reimbursement according to your policy terms and coverage. Our administrative team is happy to assist you with understanding the forms if needed.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every six months. However, Dr Stroe will recommend a personalized schedule based on your (or your child's) 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 health might have slightly longer intervals. It is important to follow Dr Stroe's specific recommendations for your optimal oral health.

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

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

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

A General Dentist like Dr Stroe 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.

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 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 usually 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, social assistance recipients). It is crucial to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at Centre dentaire Dre Daniela Stroe.

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 also used. 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 Stroe 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 Stroe at Centre dentaire Dre Daniela Stroe?

At your initial appointment, Dr Stroe and the team will focus on getting to know you and your oral health. You will fill out a medical history form, discuss any dental issues or goals, and undergo a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr Stroe will then explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great opportunity to ask questions.
