Frequently Asked Questions about Dentist with Dr. Chouhan in Vaughan
- 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 at Dental Arts Clinic.
- How often should I (or my child) visit Dr. Chouhan for a check-up and cleaning?
- For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Chouhan 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. Chouhan'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 also 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. Chouhan 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).
- Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Chouhan?
- No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr. Chouhan for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Dental Arts Clinic.
- What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Chouhan at Dental Arts Clinic?
- At your initial appointment, Dr. Chouhan and the team will get to know you and your oral health. Expect to fill out a medical history form, discuss any dental issues or goals, and have a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr. Chouhan will then explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.
