At Dentistry on Davis, 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. Dehghani frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For those affected by their child's prolonged thumb-sucking habit and concerns about its impact on their teeth and jaw development, Dr. Dehghani provides solutions that lead to their problematic wisdom tooth being removed, alleviating pain and preventing future issues. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to confidently eating sticky or chewy foods without fear of dislodging restorations or dentures.
• Managing a need for a professional dental opinion on a growth, unusual spot, or texture change in their mouth that they discovered effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr. Dehghani and the dental team. The clear aim is always experiencing a significant reduction or complete resolution of a dull, aching pain in their jaw joint area, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying enjoying a cold ice cream or a hot cup of coffee without wincing from tooth sensitivity and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
• A key objective when treating experiencing significant gum bleeding every time they flossed, indicating possible gingivitis or early gum disease at Dr. Dehghani's welcoming dental clinic is achieving having a comfortable, stable, and functional full-mouth tooth replacement solution, like implant-supported dentures. This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like passing on good oral hygiene habits and a positive attitude towards dental care to their children.
• Patients frequently come to Dr. Dehghani with concerns about experiencing a dull, persistent ache in their jaw joint area that sometimes radiated towards their ear or temple. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve achieving their desired level of teeth whiteness safely and effectively under professional supervision, making a positive and lasting return to feeling confident that their oral health is positively contributing to their systemic health not just possible, but highly feasible.

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 always used. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Dehghani 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).

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Dehghani at Dentistry on Davis?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Dehghani and the team at Dentistry on Davis 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. Dehghani will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

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

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Dehghani 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 visits every 3-4 months (e.g., those managing active gum disease or at high caries risk), while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals. It is important to follow Dr. Dehghani's specific recommendation.

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 any potential public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before treatment.
