• When wanting to learn the best and most effective way to clean around their existing dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Lenet helps patients strive for their dentures no longer causing sore spots, allowing them to eat and speak with ease. This makes participating in activities such as enjoying the sensation of a clean, healthy mouth after every meal and hygiene routine a pleasant and possible experience again.

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

For most adults and children, check-ups and cleanings every six months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Lenet will personalize your schedule based on your individual needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For example, those managing gum disease or at high risk for cavities might need visits every 3-4 months, while others with excellent long-term oral health may have slightly longer intervals. Always follow Dr Lenet's specific recommendations.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact HÔPITAL GÉNÉRAL JUIF DE MONTRÉAL directly to arrange their visit with Dr Lenet.

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. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance (often employer-sponsored), or through government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., low-income families with children, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Check your eligibility for public coverage and review your private dental insurance details (coverage, co-pays, deductibles, annual maximums) before treatment.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays using minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, to detect decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Lenet determines the frequency based on your individual needs and follows ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Lenet at HÔPITAL GÉNÉRAL JUIF DE MONTRÉAL?

Your first visit will involve a medical history review, a discussion of your dental concerns and goals, and a thorough oral examination. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr Lenet will then explain their findings and recommend any necessary treatment. It's a great opportunity to ask questions.

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