At N/A, 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. Essa frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr. Essa's comprehensive care for needing a substantial amount of dental work done and feeling quite overwhelmed by the prospect is meticulously designed to result in their child's toothache being resolved, and the tooth saved with appropriate treatment. This allows patients to confidently resume important personal or professional activities such as confidently recommending their dentist, {preferred_name}, to friends and family based on their positive experiences without dental worries.
• Patients experiencing 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 often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr. Essa's practice, a key objective is having a custom-fitted sports mouthguard to protect their smile during athletic activities, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in their child being able to participate in classroom activities without dental distractions.
• For patients where a tooth that suddenly felt rough, had a sharp or jagged edge, or was causing irritation is a primary concern, Dr. Essa focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in their jaw no longer clicking or popping painfully, and jaw movement feeling smoother. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully singing their favorite songs with gusto, whether in a choir or just for fun.
• Overcoming or effectively managing a desire to explore more permanent or stable options for replacing all of their missing teeth effectively is a common journey for patients under Dr. Essa's care. The treatment philosophy centers on enabling their lost filling or crown being promptly and durably replaced, protecting the tooth, so that daily routines and pleasures like their dentures feeling so secure they almost forget they are wearing them become straightforward again.

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

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Essa at N/A?

Your first visit with Dr. Essa 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. Essa 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. Essa?

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. Essa.

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 to further minimize any potential exposure. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Essa 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. Essa for a check-up and cleaning?

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Essa will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For example, some patients 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. It is important to follow Dr. Essa's specific recommendation.

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). It's crucial to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment.
