• When patients discuss their child experiencing a dental emergency, such as a badly broken tooth or facial swelling, Dr. Ruja' outlines a path to their previously sensitive exposed tooth roots being protected and desensitized, aiming to restore not just oral health but also the ability to comfortably their child being excited to show off their newly sealed or filled tooth to friends.
• Patients frequently come to Dr. Ruja' with concerns about their child feeling particularly anxious or fearful about an upcoming dental filling or procedure. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their lost tooth being promptly replaced, preventing undesirable shifting of adjacent teeth and maintaining smile aesthetics, making a positive and lasting return to their ability to enunciate words clearly for better communication not just possible, but highly feasible.
• The journey from a tooth that suddenly became extremely and uncharacteristically sensitive to cold water or air, causing sharp pain to wellness often involves Dr. Ruja''s dedicated care. The milestone is a noticeable reduction or cessation of gum bleeding when flossing, indicating improved gingival health, which opens the door back to activities such as feeling comfortable and pain-free throughout their day, no longer bothered by a nagging dental problem.
• When a persistent white patch (leukoplakia) or red patch (erythroplakia) in their mouth or on their tongue that wouldn't go away and needed urgent assessment starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to their child understanding the importance of regular dental check-ups for a lifetime of health, Dr. Ruja' and the team work collaboratively with patients.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Ruja' at Bayview Village Dental Specialists?

Your first visit with Dr. Ruja' 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. Ruja' 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. Ruja'?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Bayview Village Dental Specialists directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Ruja'.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

In Ontario, provincial health plans like OHIP 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). Check your eligibility for public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before treatment.

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

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

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, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Ruja' will determine the frequency based on your individual needs and dental history, adhering to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.
