Frequently Asked Questions about Dentiste with Dr Dumais in Boisbriand

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 taken only when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Dumais 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 Dumais for a check-up and cleaning?
For most patients, check-ups and cleanings every 6 months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Dumais 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's important to follow Dr Dumais's specific recommendation.
What should I do if I have a dental emergency outside of Clinique dentaire Jobin'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 Jobin’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) 437-4422. Our voicemail message may provide instructions for emergency contact with Dr Dumais or another on-call dentist, or direct you to an emergency dental service available in the Boisbriand area.
What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Dumais at Clinique dentaire Jobin?
At your initial appointment, Dr Dumais and the team at Clinique dentaire Jobin 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 Dumais will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
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 Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (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). Verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and always check your private dental insurance details before treatment.
Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Dumais?
No, a referral is not typically required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. You can contact Clinique dentaire Jobin directly to arrange your visit with Dr Dumais.
What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Dumais typically provide?
A General Dentist like Dr Dumais 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.
