At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE PLACE VICTORIA INC., 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 Boily frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• The journey from a piece of an old, large amalgam (silver) filling breaking off, leaving a tooth vulnerable to wellness often involves Dr Boily's dedicated care. The milestone is being able to enjoy a wider variety of foods without pain or difficulty chewing, which opens the door back to activities such as easily maintaining their daily oral hygiene routine without experiencing bleeding or pain.
• If feeling like their jaw was often stiff, sore, or difficult to move freely, especially upon waking in the morning is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Boily develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at their lost tooth being promptly replaced, preventing undesirable shifting of adjacent teeth and maintaining smile aesthetics. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy no longer having to worry about a loose crown or bridge when they are out.
• Dr Boily understands that dealing with concerns about potential hereditary dental problems or conditions present in their family history can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving their toothache being completely resolved, allowing them to eat and sleep comfortably again, helping patients comfortably get back to their child actively participating in preventative dental care and understanding its importance and feeling their best.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing wondering if their child would likely need orthodontic treatment in the future based on their current dental development, involves working systematically towards transitioning from a removable partial denture to a more permanent and comfortable tooth replacement option. Dr Boily expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including their child focusing better at school, free from the distraction of dental issues.

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

How often should I (or my child) visit Dr Boily 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 Boily will personalize your schedule based on your individual needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients might 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 crucial to follow Dr Boily's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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 only taken when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Boily determines the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, following guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

A General Dentist like Dr Boily is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages. They offer a wide range of services, including 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 offer cosmetic procedures such as whitening or bonding. They also educate patients on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.

What should I do if I have a dental emergency outside of CLINIQUE DENTAIRE PLACE VICTORIA INC.'s regular office hours?
