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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Dr. Macasiray Inc directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Reyhani.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Reyhani typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr. Reyhani 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. Reyhani also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Reyhani 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. Reyhani's specific recommendation is crucial.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Reyhani at Dr. Macasiray Inc?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Reyhani and the team at Dr. Macasiray Inc 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. Reyhani will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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. Reyhani 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 Medical Services Plan (MSP) of BC in BC?

In BC, provincial health plans like the Medical Services Plan (MSP) 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, or government assistance programs for eligible groups. Always check your private dental insurance coverage and eligibility for any public programs before treatment.
