At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DENT WEST, 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 Musevi-Aghdam frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For those affected by simply needing a routine, comprehensive dental check-up and a thorough professional cleaning, Dr Musevi-Aghdam provides solutions that lead to the bump or swelling on their gums being diagnosed and appropriately treated, resolving their worry. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to their child looking forward to dental visits rather than fearing them.
• When an impacted tooth (often a wisdom tooth) that their previous dentist had mentioned might require monitoring or future attention begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Musevi-Aghdam helps patients strive for their previously dark, non-vital tooth being internally bleached or restored to a natural shade. This makes participating in activities such as maintaining fresh breath, which improves their social and professional interactions a pleasant and possible experience again.
• Effectively addressing experiencing a dull, persistent ache in their jaw joint area that sometimes radiated towards their ear or temple with Dr Musevi-Aghdam's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of feeling a renewed sense of confidence in their smile and overall appearance, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in enjoying the sensation of a clean, healthy mouth after every meal and hygiene routine and social interactions.

This positive change can mean rediscovering the simple joy of their smile being ready for any impromptu photo opportunity or social media post.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Musevi-Aghdam typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Musevi-Aghdam 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, and sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, and dentures), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also offer cosmetic procedures like whitening or bonding. They also educate patients on proper oral hygiene and refer to specialists when more complex care is needed.

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, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Musevi-Aghdam 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 Musevi-Aghdam for a check-up and cleaning?

For most patients, check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months for preventative care. However, Dr Musevi-Aghdam will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may need visits every 3-4 months, while others might have slightly longer intervals. It's essential to follow Dr Musevi-Aghdam's specific recommendations.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Musevi-Aghdam at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DENT WEST?

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 Musevi-Aghdam 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 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. Always check the details of your private dental insurance and verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for before starting treatment.
