At N/A, 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. Zamon frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

  • Effectively addressing a dental issue, such as misaligned or discolored teeth, that was significantly affecting their confidence to smile openly and interact socially with Dr. Zamon's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in no longer needing to frequently visit the dentist for recurring problems due to better preventative care and social interactions.
  • Numerous patients have successfully addressed wanting to understand what was causing their teeth to appear worn down, shorter, or a bit translucent with Dr. Zamon's dedicated support and clinical expertise.

This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like feeling comfortable and pain-free throughout their day, no longer bothered by a nagging dental problem.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?
In Ontario, provincial health plans like OHIP 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, social assistance recipients). Check your eligibility for public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before treatment at N/A.
Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Zamon?
Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact N/A directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Zamon.
What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Zamon at N/A?
Your first visit with Dr. Zamon will typically involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes a review of your medical and dental history, a thorough check of your teeth, gums, jaw, and soft tissues (including an oral cancer screening), and any necessary X-rays. Dr. Zamon will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if any care is needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.
How often should I (or my child) visit Dr. Zamon for a check-up and cleaning?
For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Zamon 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. Follow Dr. Zamon's specific recommendation.
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, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Zamon 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).
