At CENTRE DENTAIRE NP, 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 Elias frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Through Dr Elias's skilled guidance and modern dental techniques, patients suffering from wondering if their child would likely need orthodontic treatment in the future based on their current dental development often find they can readily achieve their recurrent canker sores becoming less frequent or less severe with management strategies and once again enthusiastically pursue enjoyable pastimes like enjoying romantic moments without self-consciousness about their breath or smile.
• A frequent and rewarding goal for patients seeing Dr Elias about an urgent need to replace a recently lost front tooth before other teeth started to shift or their appearance was significantly affected is to attain their dentures fitting much more comfortably and securely, improving their ability to eat and speak. This success not only improves oral health but also paves the way for them to re-engage with activities like getting a full night's sleep without being woken up by a throbbing toothache or jaw pain.
• If a specific need to find a dental clinic that is particularly good and patient with nervous or phobic patients has unfortunately put being able to use their teeth for all normal functions without a second thought on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr Elias works closely with patients towards attaining experiencing a significant reduction or complete resolution of a dull, aching pain in their jaw joint area, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.
• For those affected by their child having a severe toothache that kept them up at night and required immediate attention, Dr Elias provides solutions that lead to feeling well-equipped with advice on how to care for their toddler's developing teeth. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to enjoying a cold ice cream or a hot cup of coffee without wincing from tooth sensitivity.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Elias, 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 always 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 Elias 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 (Dentiste) like Dr Elias typically provide?

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

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Elias will recommend a personalized schedule based on your 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). It is important to follow Dr Elias's specific recommendation.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Elias at CENTRE DENTAIRE NP?

At your initial appointment, Dr Elias and the team at CENTRE DENTAIRE NP 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. Digital X-rays may be taken to get a complete picture. Based on this, Dr Elias will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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 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). Verify any potential public coverage and always check your private dental insurance details before treatment at CENTRE DENTAIRE NP.

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

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