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 provided by employers), or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). Check your eligibility for public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before treatment at Hurontario-Harborn Dental Centre.

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, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Ivanovski determines the frequency based on your oral health, risk factors, and dental history, following guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Ivanovski at Hurontario-Harborn Dental Centre?

At your first appointment, Dr. Ivanovski and the team will get to know you and your oral health. Expect a medical history form, a discussion about dental issues or goals, a detailed mouth examination, and possibly digital X-rays. Dr. Ivanovski will then explain their assessment and recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for complex needs.

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