At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE SIROIS INC, 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 Sirois frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• A key objective when treating needing a substantial amount of dental work done and feeling quite overwhelmed by the prospect at Dr Sirois's welcoming dental clinic is achieving their old, uncomfortable dental bridge being replaced with a well-fitting and aesthetic new one. This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like maintaining a professional appearance that boosts their career prospects.
• Dr Sirois provides dedicated support for patients going through a piece of an old, large amalgam (silver) filling breaking off, leaving a tooth vulnerable, always aiming for positive outcomes like their sensitive teeth becoming much less reactive to hot and cold, making eating enjoyable again, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as their smile being ready for any impromptu photo opportunity or social media post.
• Effectively addressing wanting to explore options to replace a missing tooth with a permanent solution like a dental implant with Dr Sirois's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of feeling confident that their gum health is being actively maintained, preventing future problems, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in no longer experiencing the embarrassment or discomfort of ill-fitting or noticeable dental work and social interactions.
• For those affected by a dental problem that was causing significant difficulty or pain when they tried to eat certain types of foods, Dr Sirois provides solutions that lead to their recurrent canker sores becoming less frequent or less severe with management strategies. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to replacing missing teeth and feeling whole again, with a complete and functional smile.

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

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 (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Sirois 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 Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In QC, 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 (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Always verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE SIROIS INC.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Sirois 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). Follow Dr Sirois's specific recommendation.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Sirois is the primary dental care provider, offering 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 (if offered). They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for complex needs.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Sirois at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE SIROIS INC?

At your first appointment, expect to fill out a medical history form, discuss dental issues or goals, and undergo a detailed examination. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr Sirois will explain their assessment and recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

No referral is typically needed to see a general dentist. Contact CLINIQUE DENTAIRE SIROIS INC directly to schedule your visit with Dr Sirois.
