What services does a General Dentist (Dentist) like Dr. Soliman typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr. Soliman is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, dental sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease (gingivitis and mild periodontitis), and may also offer cosmetic procedures such as teeth whitening or bonding. Dr. Soliman also provides patient education on oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists for more complex 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. Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered by OHIP. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families through programs like Healthy Smiles Ontario). 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 before treatment.

What should I do if I have a dental emergency outside of South East Health Unit's regular office hours?

For life-threatening emergencies (severe bleeding, difficulty breathing due to swelling, significant facial trauma), go to the nearest hospital emergency department or call 911 immediately. For urgent, non-life-threatening issues (severe toothache, knocked-out tooth, dental abscess with moderate swelling, broken tooth causing sharp pain), call South East Health Unit's main office number at (613) 966-5500. The voicemail may provide instructions for emergency contact or direct you to an emergency dental service in Belleville.

What are dental implants, and how do I know if I'm a suitable candidate?

Dental implants are small, titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to act as artificial tooth roots. They provide a strong foundation for replacement teeth (crowns, bridges, or dentures). Good candidates generally have healthy gums, adequate jawbone density, and are in good overall health. Dr. Soliman can perform a comprehensive assessment, including X-rays, to evaluate your suitability. Dr. Soliman can discuss implants as an option and refer you to an implant specialist if appropriate.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays using minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, checking for decay, assessing bone health). Dr. Soliman determines the frequency based on your individual needs and adheres to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Soliman at South East Health Unit?

At your first visit, expect to fill out a medical history form, discuss your dental concerns and goals with Dr. Soliman, and undergo a detailed oral examination. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr. Soliman will then explain their assessment and recommend treatments. It's a good time to ask questions.

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