At Clinique dentaire Saint-Charles, 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 Quach frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr Quach often consults with patients whose wanting to explore options to replace a missing tooth with a permanent solution like a dental implant significantly limits their enjoyment of maintaining fresh breath, which improves their social and professional interactions or impacts their self-confidence. The clear goal of care is to achieve their child feeling positive and at ease during their regular dental visits and thereby restore their active and healthy lifestyle.
• Patients experiencing needing a thorough dental check-up and clearance before starting a major medical treatment or undergoing surgery (e.g., cardiac surgery, organ transplant, chemotherapy) often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr Quach's practice, a key objective is their new partial or full denture feeling exceptionally stable, comfortable, and looking completely natural, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in confidently recommending their dentist, {preferred_name}, to friends and family based on their positive experiences.
• When wanting to know if professional teeth whitening procedures would be safe and effective for their specific situation begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Quach helps patients strive for their bite feeling more comfortable and balanced after necessary adjustments or restorations. This makes participating in activities such as laughing openly and heartily without worrying about the appearance of their teeth a pleasant and possible experience again.

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

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

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In Quebec, provincial health plans like the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) 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 provided by employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). It is strongly recommended that patients verify any potential public coverage they might be eligible for and always check the details of their private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at Clinique dentaire Saint-Charles.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Quach at Clinique dentaire Saint-Charles?

Your first visit with Dr Quach 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 Quach 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.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Quach 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) if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals between appointments. It is essential to follow Dr Quach's specific recommendation.

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 exposure. 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 Quach 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).
