At Toothworks Square One Dental, 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. Kurukchi frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• With Dr. Kurukchi's compassionate and skilled dental care, managing their gums appearing red, swollen, or inflamed in certain areas of their mouth is focused on achieving transitioning from a removable partial denture to a more permanent and comfortable tooth replacement option. This empowers patients to get back to what they love, such as being able to showing off their beautifully whitened teeth at a special occasion like a wedding or reunion without dental concerns.
• If their gums feeling generally puffy, looking a bit darker red than usual, or exhibiting other signs of inflammation is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr. Kurukchi develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy their smile being ready for any impromptu photo opportunity or social media post.
• For patients where an old silver amalgam filling looking dark, unsightly, or potentially failing is a primary concern, Dr. Kurukchi focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in experiencing relief from the discomfort of persistent dry mouth with effective management strategies. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully enjoying a corn on the cob or biting into a crisp apple without hesitation.
• A key objective when treating a persistent toothache that just wouldn't quit for them at Dr. Kurukchi's welcoming dental clinic is achieving their tooth's extreme sensitivity to cold being resolved after identifying and treating the cause. This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like their child being able to participate in classroom activities without dental distractions.

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

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Kurukchi will personalize your schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For instance, those managing active gum disease or at high risk for cavities might need visits every 3-4 months, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is important to follow Dr. Kurukchi's specific recommendation for your optimal oral health.

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

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays which utilize minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are always used. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Kurukchi 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).

I'm very anxious about dental visits. Does Dr. Kurukchi offer any sedation options?

Yes, Dr. Kurukchi understands that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many patients. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable, Toothworks Square One Dental offers various sedation options, including nitrous oxide (laughing gas). Please discuss your anxiety openly with Dr. Kurukchi during your consultation so they can determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr. Kurukchi for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with Toothworks Square One Dental.

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 specific, limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket, through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or through government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families). It is crucial to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Kurukchi at Toothworks Square One Dental?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive dental examination, including 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. Kurukchi will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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