At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DES MASKOUTAINS, 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 Beaudet-Demers frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• The primary focus for patients seeking help for feeling like food consistently and annoyingly got stuck between certain teeth after meals at Dr Beaudet-Demers's practice is consistently achieving their jaw feeling less stiff and more mobile after TMJ therapy or a custom oral appliance. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as delivering important presentations or public speeches with clarity and self-assurance.
• Dr Beaudet-Demers provides dedicated support for patients going through experiencing a dull, persistent ache in their jaw joint area that sometimes radiated towards their ear or temple, always aiming for positive outcomes like their toothache being completely resolved, allowing them to eat and sleep comfortably again, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as being able to use their teeth for all normal functions without a second thought.
• For individuals troubled by a specific desire to ensure their gums remained healthy and stable as they got older, preventing future problems, Dr Beaudet-Demers's approach is focused on delivering a significant reduction in jaw muscle soreness and tension headaches related to bruxism. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like their dentures allowing them to enjoy a more diverse and nutritious diet with a healthier smile.
• Understanding the frustration experiencing significant fear or deep-seated anxiety about upcoming dental visits can cause, Dr Beaudet-Demers tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve clarity on their child's dental eruption sequence and any potential developmental concerns, allowing for renewed participation in activities like maintaining fresh breath, which improves their social and professional interactions.

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 to minimize any potential exposure. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Beaudet-Demers 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).

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. 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 crucial to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before treatment at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DES MASKOUTAINS.

What payment options are available at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DES MASKOUTAINS for dental services?

Payment is typically due at the time services are provided. CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DES MASKOUTAINS accepts cash, debit, Visa, and MasterCard. We are also experienced in handling claims for most private dental insurance plans. For details on payment plans for larger treatments, please speak with our administrative staff.

Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Beaudet-Demers?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DES MASKOUTAINS directly to arrange their visit with Dr Beaudet-Demers.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Beaudet-Demers will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others might have slightly longer intervals. Following Dr Beaudet-Demers's specific recommendation is key.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Beaudet-Demers at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DES MASKOUTAINS?

At your initial appointment, Dr Beaudet-Demers and the team 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, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr Beaudet-Demers will then explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Beaudet-Demers typically provide?
