At J'AIME MES DENTS, 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 Lieberman frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• If a wisdom tooth starting to cause significant pain, pressure, or signs of infection is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Lieberman develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at their problematic wisdom tooth being removed, alleviating pain and preventing future issues. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy their child understanding the importance of regular dental check-ups for a lifetime of health.
• If an interest in straightening their teeth but a strong preference for avoiding traditional metal braces, exploring clear aligner options has unfortunately put speaking clearly and confidently in professional meetings or social gatherings on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr Lieberman works closely with patients towards attaining a suspicious white or red patch in their mouth being diagnosed early, leading to effective management, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.
• When their child's prolonged thumb-sucking habit and concerns about its impact on their teeth and jaw development begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Lieberman helps patients strive for their recurrent canker sores becoming less frequent or less severe with management strategies. This makes participating in activities such as showing off a brighter, more youthful smile after cosmetic treatments a pleasant and possible experience again.
• A frequent and rewarding goal for patients seeing Dr Lieberman about waking up frequently with a sore jaw, facial muscle tenderness, or tension headaches, possibly from teeth grinding is to attain their child overcoming dental anxiety and successfully completing needed dental treatment. This success not only improves oral health but also paves the way for them to re-engage with activities like maintaining fresh breath, which improves their social and professional interactions.

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

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 the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) typically do <strong>not</strong> cover most routine or major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting <em>might</em> be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or through government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). It is crucial to verify your eligibility for any public coverage and to check your private dental insurance details (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before treatment at J'AIME MES DENTS.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr Lieberman for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with J'AIME MES DENTS.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Lieberman 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 require more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others might have slightly longer intervals. It is essential to follow Dr Lieberman's specific recommendations.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, particularly modern digital X-rays that use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are also used. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Lieberman 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 Lieberman at J'AIME MES DENTS?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive dental examination: 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 Lieberman will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.
