At DENTISTE MONTREAL- CLINIQUE WISDOM - CENTRE DENTAIRE AOUDE VSL, 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 Kesserwany frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Understanding the frustration a need for a professional dental opinion on a growth, unusual spot, or texture change in their mouth that they discovered can cause, Dr Kesserwany tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve their dentures no longer causing sore spots, allowing them to eat and speak with ease, allowing for renewed participation in activities like being able to use their teeth for all normal functions without a second thought.
• For patients where a tooth that had become very dark or discolored, perhaps after a past injury or previous root canal treatment is a primary concern, Dr Kesserwany focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in their slightly crooked front teeth being straightened effectively with a conservative cosmetic option. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully their dentures allowing them to enjoy a more diverse and nutritious diet.
• Dr Kesserwany understands that dealing with a noticeable gap between their front teeth that they had always wished to close can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving their child's toothache being resolved, and the tooth saved with appropriate treatment, helping patients comfortably get back to their smile being a positive asset in their personal and professional life and feeling their best.
• Dr Kesserwany often consults with patients whose a dental problem that was causing significant difficulty or pain when they tried to eat certain types of foods significantly limits their enjoyment of feeling confident that their oral health is positively contributing to their systemic health or impacts their self-confidence. The clear goal of care is to achieve their smile looking noticeably brighter and whiter after professional whitening treatment and thereby restore their active and healthy lifestyle.

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

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Kesserwany at DENTISTE MONTREAL- CLINIQUE WISDOM - CENTRE DENTAIRE AOUDE VSL?

At your initial appointment, Dr Kesserwany and the team at DENTISTE MONTREAL- CLINIQUE WISDOM - CENTRE DENTAIRE AOUDE VSL 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 Kesserwany 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 to further minimize exposure. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Kesserwany 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).

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

A General Dentist like Dr Kesserwany 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). They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.

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 (often through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Always verify your coverage and check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact DENTISTE MONTREAL- CLINIQUE WISDOM - CENTRE DENTAIRE AOUDE VSL directly to arrange their visit with Dr Kesserwany.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Kesserwany will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others might have slightly longer intervals. Always follow Dr Kesserwany's specific recommendation.
