At Our Dentistry, 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. Lamba frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• If a piece of an old, large amalgam (silver) filling breaking off, leaving a tooth vulnerable is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr. Lamba develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at gaining peace of mind about their family's hereditary dental risks through informed discussion. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy feeling that their smile truly reflects their personality and inner confidence..
• Effectively addressing wanting to know if professional teeth whitening procedures would be safe and effective for their specific situation with Dr. Lamba's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of their gums looking pink and healthy again after treatment for gingivitis or early gum disease, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in simply relaxing and not having dental pain or problems on their mind constantly and social interactions.
• Many patients schedule a consultation with Dr. Lamba when they first notice their partner mentioning that they snored very loudly or seemed to stop breathing momentarily during sleep (a possible sign of sleep apnea requiring a dental appliance referral). Through personalized dental care, the goal is to achieve their sensitive teeth becoming much less reactive to hot and cold, making eating enjoyable again, enabling them to once again enjoy waking up feeling refreshed, without jaw soreness or tension from nighttime grinding without hesitation.
• For those affected by wanting to understand what was causing their teeth to appear worn down, shorter, or a bit translucent, Dr. Lamba provides solutions that lead to achieving their desired level of teeth whiteness safely and effectively under professional supervision. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to delivering important presentations or public speeches with clarity and self-assurance.

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

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

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

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

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

I experience jaw pain, clicking, and headaches. Can Dr. Lamba help with TMJ/TMD issues?

Dr. Lamba can perform an initial assessment of your jaw pain and related symptoms. Depending on the findings and complexity, they may offer some conservative management advice or provide a referral to a dentist or specialist with advanced training in TMJ disorders if more specialized care is indicated.

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). It is crucial 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.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Lamba at Our Dentistry?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Lamba and the team at Our Dentistry 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. Lamba will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Lamba 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.

What cosmetic dentistry options might Dr. Lamba offer to improve the appearance of my smile?

Dr. Lamba focuses on comprehensive general dentistry for overall oral health. While many restorative procedures also have excellent aesthetic outcomes, if you have specific advanced cosmetic concerns, they can discuss basic aesthetic improvements available or provide a referral to a dentist specializing in cosmetic procedures or a prosthodontist if more advanced treatment is desired.

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, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Lamba 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).
