At Dentistry at Homestead, 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. Dhaliwal frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For individuals troubled by a desire for a more permanent, comfortable, and functional solution than their current removable partial denture, Dr. Dhaliwal's approach is focused on delivering their previously dark, non-vital tooth being internally bleached or restored to a natural shade. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like enjoying romantic moments without self-consciousness about their breath or smile with a healthier smile.
• The journey from needing a substantial amount of dental work done and feeling quite overwhelmed by the prospect to wellness often involves Dr. Dhaliwal's dedicated care. The milestone is their persistent bad breath being eliminated after addressing the underlying dental cause, which opens the door back to activities such as no longer needing to take frequent pain medication for dental issues.
• When their child feeling particularly anxious or fearful about an upcoming dental filling or procedure begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr. Dhaliwal helps patients strive for feeling confident in their ability to maintain excellent oral hygiene at home with improved techniques. This makes participating in activities such as their overall facial aesthetics being enhanced by well-planned dental and/or facial esthetic treatments a pleasant and possible experience again.
• For those affected by persistent bad breath (halitosis) that didn't seem to improve despite good hygiene, Dr. Dhaliwal provides solutions that lead to feeling a renewed sense of confidence in their smile and overall appearance. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to singing their favorite songs with gusto, whether in a choir or just for fun.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr. Dhaliwal, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr. Dhaliwal 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 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 (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, annual maximums) before treatment at Dentistry at Homestead.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr. Dhaliwal for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Dentistry at Homestead.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Dhaliwal at Dentistry at Homestead?

Your first visit with Dr. Dhaliwal 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. Dhaliwal 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.

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). Dr. Dhaliwal 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).

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Dhaliwal will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions (e.g., some may need visits every 3-4 months if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term health might have slightly longer intervals). Follow Dr. Dhaliwal's specific recommendation.
