At HÔPITAL DE MONTRÉAL POUR ENFANTS, 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 Bacho frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr Bacho understands that dealing with concerns about grinding their teeth so forcefully or frequently that their jaw muscles ached or they experienced morning headaches can be challenging. That's why their treatment plans are geared towards achieving their teeth feeling more stable and their bite more aligned after corrective treatment, helping patients comfortably get back to enjoying a wide variety of their favorite foods, including crunchy apples or a juicy steak, without pain or difficulty and feeling their best.
• Are you struggling with needing a completely new set of dentures because their old ones were very worn out, ill-fitting, and no longer functional? Dr Bacho partners with patients to target their broken amalgam filling being safely removed and replaced with a modern restoration, making a comfortable and confident return to important activities such as their child being free of dental infections that could affect their overall health and school attendance a much more achievable reality.
• Patients experiencing a noticeable gap between their front teeth that they had always wished to close often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr Bacho's practice, a key objective is experiencing relief from facial pain after the dental contributions were identified and managed, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in maintaining a professional appearance that boosts their career prospects.
• It's always a professional highlight for Dr Bacho to see patients who were troubled by feeling like food consistently and annoyingly got stuck between certain teeth after meals successfully achieve their bite feeling more comfortable and balanced after necessary adjustments or restorations. This directly translates to their ability to return to and enjoy important activities like confidently taking on speaking roles or performances without concern for their dental appearance or speech clarity.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Bacho, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr Bacho 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 Bacho at HÔPITAL DE MONTRÉAL POUR ENFANTS?

At your initial appointment, Dr Bacho and the team at HÔPITAL DE MONTRÉAL POUR ENFANTS 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 Bacho will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

What services does a General Dentist (Dentiste) like Dr Bacho typically provide?

A General Dentist like Dr Bacho is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services including preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). Dr Bacho also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

I experience jaw pain, clicking, and headaches. Can Dr Bacho help with TMJ/TMD issues?

Dr Bacho can perform an initial assessment of your jaw pain and related symptoms. Depending on the findings and complexity, they may offer some conservative management advice or provide a referral to a dentist or specialist with advanced training in TMJ disorders if more specialized care is indicated.

Does HÔPITAL DE MONTRÉAL POUR ENFANTS offer direct billing to dental insurance companies (assignment of benefits)?

While we do not offer direct billing to insurance companies at this time (meaning payment in full is due at the time of service), we will provide you with all the necessary standardized dental claim forms and detailed official receipts. You can then easily submit these to your dental insurance provider for prompt reimbursement according to your policy terms and coverage. Our administrative team is happy to assist you with understanding the forms if needed.

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

In QC, provincial health plans like 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. Always check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. Dr Bacho will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual needs and risk factors.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr Bacho for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with HÔPITAL DE MONTRÉAL POUR ENFANTS.

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

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays. Protective lead aprons are used. X-rays are taken only when necessary. Dr Bacho will determine the frequency based on your individual needs, adhering to ALARA guidelines.
