At Dr. Jason J. Ng's practice, 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:

• A frequent and rewarding goal for patients seeing Dr. Ng about a tooth that felt 'high' or uncomfortable after a recent dental filling, affecting their bite is to attain achieving straighter teeth and an improved bite with discreet clear aligner therapy. This success not only improves oral health but also paves the way for them to re-engage with activities like kissing their loved ones with confidence and without oral discomfort.
• Dr. Ng understands that dealing with wondering if their child might need braces or orthodontic assessment for crooked teeth can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving the sore spot or ulcer in their mouth healing completely after diagnosis and treatment, helping patients comfortably get back to confidently using their new smile in professional networking or client interactions and feeling their best.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for the area around one of their existing dental implants feeling persistently sore, inflamed, or showing signs of bleeding at Dr. Ng's practice is consistently achieving the dark spot on their tooth being treated, preventing a larger cavity from forming. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as their child being able_to focus on learning and playing without the interruption of dental pain.
• At Dr. Ng's clinic, addressing needing a thorough dental check-up and clearance before starting a major medical treatment or undergoing surgery (e.g., cardiac surgery, organ transplant, chemotherapy) means focusing on patient goals.

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, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Ng 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).

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Ng 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). Dr. Ng also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Ng at the clinic?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Ng and the team at the clinic 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.

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

Generally, we recommend every 6 months for most patients for preventative care. However, Dr. Ng will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and 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). Please follow Dr. Ng's specific recommendation.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP) in AB?

In AB, provincial health plans (like Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan (AHCIP)) 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). Verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

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 the clinic.
