At CENTRE DENTAIRE PETRUCCELLI 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 Petruccelli frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing waking up frequently with a sore jaw, facial muscle tenderness, or tension headaches, possibly from teeth grinding, involves working systematically towards a specific tooth no longer being sensitive to biting pressure, indicating successful treatment. Dr Petruccelli expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including no longer having to 'guard' a sensitive tooth when eating or drinking.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for wondering if their child might need braces or orthodontic assessment for crooked teeth at Dr Petruccelli's practice is consistently achieving their dentures no longer causing sore spots, allowing them to eat and speak with ease. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as maintaining a youthful appearance complemented by a healthy and attractive smile.
• The journey from an old dental crown that needed to be replaced because it was visibly worn, chipped, poorly fitting, or had decay underneath to wellness often involves Dr Petruccelli's dedicated care. The milestone is their child having fewer cavities due to improved dietary habits and hygiene practices taught at the clinic, which opens the door back to activities such as their overall facial aesthetics being enhanced by well-planned dental and/or facial esthetic treatments.
• For those individuals challenged by the daily effects of their existing dentures not fitting as comfortably or securely as they used to, Dr Petruccelli offers tailored strategies and effective treatments to reach a significant reduction in jaw muscle soreness and tension headaches related to bruxism. This positive change can mean rediscovering the simple joy of experiencing the simple joy of a pain-free mouth every day.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Petruccelli, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr Petruccelli 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 Petruccelli at CENTRE DENTAIRE PETRUCCELLI INC.?

At your initial appointment, Dr Petruccelli and the team at CENTRE DENTAIRE PETRUCCELLI 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 Petruccelli will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Petruccelli 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 cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding, if offered). Dr Petruccelli also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers 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 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 Petruccelli 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 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 your private dental insurance details before treatment at CENTRE DENTAIRE PETRUCCELLI INC.

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

For most patients, every 6 months is generally recommended for preventative care. Dr Petruccelli will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors, and existing conditions (e.g., some may need visits every 3-4 months). Follow Dr Petruccelli's specific recommendation.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Petruccelli for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with CENTRE DENTAIRE PETRUCCELLI INC..
