At CENTRE DENTAIRE RDP, 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 Ng frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Effectively addressing an old dental bridge that felt loose, uncomfortable, or was showing signs of wear and tear with Dr Ng's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of a previously 'high' or uncomfortable dental filling being perfectly adjusted, restoring a comfortable and even bite, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in their child being able to participate in classroom activities without dental distractions and social interactions.
• When their smile not looking as bright, white, or vibrant as it used to, prompting interest in whitening starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to maintaining a youthful appearance complemented by a healthy and attractive smile, Dr Ng and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by their smile looking noticeably brighter and whiter after professional whitening treatment and a return to comfort and confidence.
• Patients frequently come to Dr Ng with concerns about their child being referred to a dental specialist for specific or complex treatment needs by their school or another health provider. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their old, failing crown being replaced with a new, perfectly fitting, and aesthetic restoration, making a positive and lasting return to their dentures feeling so secure they almost forget they are wearing them not just possible, but highly feasible.
• The journey from looking for a new family dentist who could provide comprehensive care for all members of their family, from children to adults to wellness often involves Dr Ng's dedicated care. The milestone is feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation, which opens the door back to activities such as their smile reflecting their inner happiness and confidence.

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

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr Ng for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with CENTRE DENTAIRE RDP.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Ng at CENTRE DENTAIRE RDP?

At your initial appointment, Dr Ng and the team at CENTRE DENTAIRE RDP 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 Ng 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 Quebec, provincial health plans like the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) typically do <strong>not</strong> cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics for the general population. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting <em>might</em> be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers). Government assistance programs exist for eligible groups (e.g., low-income families with children, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Always check your private insurance details and verify any potential public coverage eligibility before treatment at CENTRE DENTAIRE RDP.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Ng 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, dental 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 (like whitening or bonding). They also provide education on oral hygiene and refer patients 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 necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Ng will determine the frequency based on your individual needs and follows guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

For most patients, every 6 months is generally recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Ng will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors, and existing conditions. Some patients might need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others might have slightly longer intervals. Follow Dr Ng's specific recommendations.
