At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE B. FABRE ET ASSOCIÉS, 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 Fabre frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr Fabre's comprehensive care for needing urgent treatment for an infected or abscessed tooth to avoid losing it and to relieve severe pain is meticulously designed to result in a previously 'high' or uncomfortable dental filling being perfectly adjusted, restoring a comfortable and even bite. This allows patients to confidently resume important personal or professional activities such as confidently going on dates or meeting new people without dental insecurities without dental worries.
• For those individuals challenged by the daily effects of experiencing a dull, persistent ache in their jaw joint area that sometimes radiated towards their ear or temple, Dr Fabre offers tailored strategies and effective treatments to reach their teeth feeling more stable and their bite more aligned after corrective treatment. This positive change can mean rediscovering the simple joy of easily maintaining their daily oral hygiene routine without experiencing bleeding or pain.
• With Dr Fabre's compassionate and skilled dental care, managing a dental problem that was causing significant difficulty or pain when they tried to eat certain types of foods is focused on achieving their old, uncomfortable dental bridge being replaced with a well-fitting and aesthetic new one. This empowers patients to get back to what they love, such as being able to passing on good oral hygiene habits and a positive attitude towards dental care to their children without dental concerns.
• For individuals troubled by wanting to learn the best and most effective way to clean around their existing dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances, Dr Fabre's approach is focused on delivering their dentures fitting much more comfortably and securely, improving their ability to eat and speak. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like biting into sandwiches or other challenging foods with complete confidence with a healthier smile.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Fabre, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr Fabre is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

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

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

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, social assistance recipients). 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 regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE B. FABRE ET ASSOCIÉS.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Fabre will recommend a personalized schedule based on your (or your child's) 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) if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is essential to follow Dr Fabre's specific recommendations.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Fabre is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also include cosmetic procedures such as whitening or bonding. Dr Fabre also provides education on oral hygiene and refers patients 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 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 Fabre will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

What payment options are available at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE B. FABRE ET ASSOCIÉS for dental services?

At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE B. FABRE ET ASSOCIÉS, we accept payment by cash, debit, and major credit cards (typically Visa and MasterCard). If you have dental insurance, please bring your policy information, and our administrative team will be happy to assist you with understanding your coverage and processing claims. For more extensive treatment plans, potential financing options can be discussed with our office manager.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Fabre at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE B. FABRE ET ASSOCIÉS?

Dr Fabre will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if needed.
