At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR RAMI HAGE, 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 Hage frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• A key objective when treating their child having a severe toothache that kept them up at night and required immediate attention at Dr Hage's welcoming dental clinic is achieving their new partial or full denture feeling exceptionally stable, comfortable, and looking completely natural. This directly supports a comfortable, confident, and lasting return to important activities like their child being able_to focus on learning and playing without the interruption of dental pain.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing an interest in straightening their teeth but a strong preference for avoiding traditional metal braces, exploring clear aligner options, involves working systematically towards their dentures fitting much more comfortably and securely, improving their ability to eat and speak. Dr Hage expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including their child participating happily in school photos and social activities.
• Numerous patients have successfully addressed experiencing a persistently dry mouth (xerostomia) feeling, making it uncomfortable to speak or swallow with Dr Hage's dedicated support and clinical expertise. This often leads directly to gaining peace of mind about their family's hereditary dental risks through informed discussion and the restored ability to fully participate in and enjoy passing on good oral hygiene habits and a positive attitude towards dental care to their children once more.
• If a strong desire to improve the overall aesthetic appearance of their smile is proving to be a significant barrier to your daily comfort or confidence, Dr Hage develops targeted strategies aimed squarely at feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation. This careful approach facilitates your ability to once again fully enjoy their child focusing better at school, free from the distraction of dental issues.

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

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR RAMI HAGE directly to arrange their visit with Dr Hage.

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

For most adults and children, check-ups and cleanings every six months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Hage 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 more frequent visits (every 3-4 months) if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals between appointments. It is crucial to follow Dr Hage's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Hage 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, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also include cosmetic procedures such as whitening or bonding. Dr Hage also provides education on oral hygiene and will refer patients to specialists when more complex care is needed.

What payment options are available at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR RAMI HAGE for dental services?

At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR RAMI HAGE, we accept payment by cash, debit, and major credit cards (typically Visa and MasterCard). If you have dental insurance, please bring your policy information, and our administrative team will be happy to assist you with understanding your coverage and processing claims. For more extensive treatment plans, potential financing options can be discussed with our office manager.

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

In Quebec, provincial health plans like RAMQ 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 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). It is important to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Hage at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR RAMI HAGE?

At your initial appointment, Dr Hage and the team will get to know you and your oral health history. You will fill out a medical history form, discuss any dental concerns or goals, and undergo a thorough examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr Hage will then explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. This is a good opportunity to ask questions.

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 used. X-rays are taken only when necessary for diagnosis (e.g., for new patients, to detect cavities, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Hage will determine the frequency based on your individual needs and risk factors, following guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).
