At Dalecliff Dental Office, 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. Tadrous frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Numerous patients have successfully addressed feeling like food consistently and annoyingly got stuck between certain teeth after meals with Dr. Tadrous's dedicated support and clinical expertise. This often leads directly to a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile and the restored ability to fully participate in and enjoy experiencing the relief of a resolved dental infection and the return to normal comfort once more.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing a specific tooth being noticeably sensitive to pressure or discomfort when they chewed or bit down on food, involves working systematically towards their problematic wisdom tooth being removed, alleviating pain and preventing future issues. Dr. Tadrous expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including travelling and trying new cuisines without fear of unexpected dental emergencies.
• Dr. Tadrous provides dedicated support for patients going through an old silver amalgam filling looking dark, unsightly, or potentially failing, always aiming for positive outcomes like a tooth that had become painfully sensitive to sweet foods now feeling completely normal and comfortable, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as being able to use their teeth for all normal functions without a second thought.
• When a persistent toothache that just wouldn't quit for them starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to enjoying a corn on the cob or biting into a crisp apple without hesitation, Dr. Tadrous and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by their persistent bad breath being eliminated after addressing the underlying dental cause and a return to comfort and confidence.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr. Tadrous, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Tadrous typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr. Tadrous 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 may also include cosmetic procedures such as whitening or bonding. Dr. Tadrous also educates patients on proper oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists when more complex needs arise.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Tadrous at Dalecliff Dental Office?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Tadrous and the team at Dalecliff Dental Office 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. Tadrous will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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 exposure. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Tadrous 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 Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

In Ontario, provincial health plans like OHIP 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 check the details of your private dental insurance and verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for before starting treatment.

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

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

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

For most patients, a check-up and cleaning every 6 months is recommended for preventative care. However, Dr. Tadrous will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others might have slightly longer intervals. It's important to follow Dr. Tadrous's specific recommendation.
