Frequently Asked Questions about Dentiste with Dr Malczewski in Dollard-des-Ormeaux

- No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr Malczewski for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Clinique Dentaire Healy.
- What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Malczewski typically provide?
- A General Dentist like Dr Malczewski 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 if offered). Dr Malczewski also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.
- 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 between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments).
