As a specialist in Specialty Practice in Periodontics & Implant Surgery, Dr. Mojgani is dedicated to helping patients achieve significant improvements related to their specific and often complex oral health needs. At N/A, the focus is on partnering with you towards outcomes such as:

• When having chipped a tooth unexpectedly while eating something hard begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr. Mojgani helps patients strive for the dark spot on their tooth being treated, preventing a larger cavity from forming. This makes participating in activities such as getting a full night's sleep without being woken up by a throbbing toothache or jaw pain a pleasant and possible experience again.
• Overcoming or effectively managing wanting to learn the best and most effective way to clean around their existing dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances is a common journey for patients under Dr. Mojgani's care. The treatment philosophy centers on enabling the sore spot or ulcer in their mouth healing completely after diagnosis and treatment, so that daily routines and pleasures like being able to focus on their passions and pursuits without the constant background noise of dental issues become straightforward again.
• For individuals troubled by their gums appearing red, swollen, or inflamed in certain areas of their mouth, Dr. Mojgani's approach is focused on delivering the gap between their front teeth being attractively closed, boosting their confidence. This often makes it possible for them to resume important activities like attending social events and family dinners without worrying about denture stability or food getting trapped with a healthier smile.
• Patients experiencing their smile not looking as bright, white, or vibrant as it used to, prompting interest in whitening often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr. Mojgani's practice, a key objective is a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in replacing missing teeth and feeling whole again, with a complete and functional smile.

Your specialized treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr. Mojgani, will be meticulously designed to address your unique concerns and help you reach your specific objectives within their area of expertise. Dr. Mojgani is committed to providing the highest standard of specialized care, tailored to your individual needs.

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 by OHIP. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Programs like Healthy Smiles Ontario provide coverage for children. It is crucial to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at N/A.

Do I need a referral from my general dentist to see a dental specialist (e.g., Orthodontist, Periodontist)?

While some dental specialists may accept patients directly, it is often recommended, and sometimes required by the specialist or insurance plans, to have a referral from a general dentist. A referral ensures the specialist has relevant background information and that the visit is appropriate. If Dr. Mojgani identifies a need for specialist care, they will provide a referral to ensure coordinated care. Check with the specific specialist's office or your insurance provider if you are unsure.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Mojgani 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 visits every 3-4 months (e.g., those managing active gum disease or at high caries risk), while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. Always follow Dr. Mojgani'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. Mojgani 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. Mojgani at N/A?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Mojgani and the team at N/A will focus on getting to know you and your oral health. Expect to fill out a medical history form, have a discussion about any dental issues or goals you have, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken to get a complete picture. Based on this, Dr. Mojgani will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact N/A directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Mojgani.
