At Clinique dentaire Multi de Laval 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 Laroussi frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• If a desire to ensure their current oral hygiene routine at home was truly effective and optimal is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Laroussi develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at experiencing a significant reduction in jaw pain and morning headaches after treatment for teeth grinding (bruxism). This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy participating actively in sports without fear of dental injury, especially with a custom mouthguard.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing a wisdom tooth starting to cause significant pain, pressure, or signs of infection, involves working systematically towards their child calmly receiving dental injections due to a patient and skilled approach. Dr Laroussi expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including enjoying romantic moments without self-consciousness about their breath or smile.
• For patients where their child having a severe toothache that kept them up at night and required immediate attention is a primary concern, Dr Laroussi focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully their TMJ comfort allowing them to yawn, laugh, and speak without restriction or pain.
• If a noticeable gap between their front teeth that they had always wished to close is preventing you from fully enjoying no longer needing to frequently visit the dentist for recurring problems due to better preventative care or causing discomfort, Dr Laroussi offers expert dental solutions. The primary aim is to achieve their child having fewer cavities due to improved dietary habits and hygiene practices taught at the clinic through comprehensive and personalized dental care.

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

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

A General Dentist like Dr Laroussi 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, dental sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also offer cosmetic procedures such as teeth whitening or bonding. Dr Laroussi also provides education on oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists for more complex needs.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr Laroussi for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Clinique dentaire Multi de Laval Inc..

What should I do if I have a dental emergency outside of Clinique dentaire Multi de Laval Inc.'s regular office hours?

If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency (e.g., severe uncontrolled bleeding, difficulty breathing due to facial swelling, significant facial trauma), please go to the nearest hospital emergency department or call 911 immediately. For urgent dental issues that are not life-threatening but require prompt attention outside of Clinique dentaire Multi de Laval Inc.'s hours (such as severe toothache, a knocked-out tooth, a dental abscess with moderate swelling, or a broken tooth causing sharp pain), please call our main office number at (450) 233-7527. Our voicemail message may provide instructions for emergency contact with Dr Laroussi or another on-call dentist, or direct you to an emergency dental service available in the Laval area.

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 any potential exposure. 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 Laroussi 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).

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Laroussi will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions (e.g., some may need visits every 3-4 months if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term health might have slightly longer intervals). It is important to follow Dr Laroussi's specific recommendation.

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 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, social assistance recipients). It is important to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at Clinique dentaire Multi de Laval Inc..

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Laroussi at Clinique dentaire Multi de Laval Inc.?

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.
