At Dr Elise Shoghikian, 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 Shoghikian frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

  • When a specific need to find a dental clinic that is particularly good and patient with nervous or phobic patients begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Shoghikian helps patients strive for a specific tooth no longer being sensitive to biting pressure, indicating successful treatment. This makes participating in activities such as enjoying the peace of mind that comes with a healthy, well-maintained mouth a pleasant and possible experience again.
  • Managing feeling self-conscious about the stained or yellowish appearance of their teeth effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr Shoghikian and the dental team. The clear aim is always their new partial or full denture feeling exceptionally stable, comfortable, and looking completely natural, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying their smile reflecting their inner happiness and confidence and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
  • It's always a professional highlight for Dr Shoghikian to see patients who were troubled by their child being referred to a dental specialist for specific or complex treatment needs by their school or another health provider successfully achieve their child having fewer cavities due to improved dietary habits and hygiene practices taught at the clinic. This directly translates to their ability to return to and enjoy important activities like their child being able to eat nutritious crunchy fruits and vegetables without discomfort.
  • Effectively addressing a persistent toothache that just wouldn't quit for them with Dr Shoghikian's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of achieving straighter teeth and an improved bite with discreet clear aligner therapy, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in their child looking forward to dental visits rather than fearing them and social interactions.

Frequently Asked Questions about Dentiste with Dr Shoghikian in Outremont

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Shoghikian at Dr Elise Shoghikian?
At your initial appointment, Dr Shoghikian and the team at Dr Elise Shoghikian 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 Shoghikian will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Shoghikian typically provide?
A General Dentist like Dr Shoghikian 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 Shoghikian also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers 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. 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 Shoghikian 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 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 or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors). Always verify your coverage before treatment.
How often should I (or my child) visit Dr Shoghikian for a check-up and cleaning?
Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr Shoghikian will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs and risk factors. Some may need more frequent visits.
Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Shoghikian?
Typically, no referral is needed. Contact Dr Elise Shoghikian directly to schedule an appointment.
