• If simply needing a routine, comprehensive dental check-up and a thorough professional cleaning is preventing you from fully enjoying their ability to savor the flavors of food being enhanced due to a healthy mouth or causing discomfort, Dr. Gill offers expert dental solutions.

By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their jaw feeling less stiff and more mobile after TMJ therapy or a custom oral appliance, making a positive and lasting return to feeling great about their smile in photographs and videos not just possible, but highly feasible.
• When a need for a professional dental opinion on a growth, unusual spot, or texture change in their mouth that they discovered starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to easily flossing and brushing without encountering pain or bleeding from their gums, Dr. Gill and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by finding a welcoming and skilled dental practice capable of caring for their entire family's needs and a return to comfort and confidence.

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

Your first visit with Dr. Gill will typically involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes a review of your medical and dental history, a thorough check of your teeth, gums, jaw, and soft tissues (including an oral cancer screening), and any necessary X-rays. Dr. Gill will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if any care is needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact our clinic directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Gill.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Medical Services Plan (MSP) of BC in BC?

In BC, provincial health plans (like Medical Services Plan (MSP) of BC) 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, social assistance recipients). Always verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

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

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