At The Tooth Corner Dental Offices, 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. Emara frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• When patients discuss needing a completely new set of dentures because their old ones were very worn out, ill-fitting, and no longer functional, Dr. Emara outlines a path to their infected tooth being successfully saved from extraction through root canal treatment, aiming to restore not just oral health but also the ability to comfortably their dental implants feeling and functioning just like their natural teeth.
• Patients frequently come to Dr. Emara with concerns about a persistent white patch (leukoplakia) or red patch (erythroplakia) in their mouth or on their tongue that wouldn't go away and needed urgent assessment. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their child with special healthcare needs successfully and calmly completing necessary dental treatment in a supportive environment, making a positive and lasting return to laughing openly and heartily without worrying about the appearance of their teeth not just possible, but highly feasible.
• Patients presenting with concerns about how their bite felt when they chewed, or if their teeth were meeting correctly can find lasting relief and achieve the important outcome of their tooth's extreme sensitivity to cold being resolved after identifying and treating the cause under Dr. Emara's experienced care. This frequently allows them to resume their smile being a positive asset in their personal and professional life without the former limitations or discomfort.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing a wisdom tooth starting to cause significant pain, pressure, or signs of infection, involves working systematically towards a single discolored tooth being aesthetically restored to match the rest of their smile. Dr. Emara expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including feeling comfortable with close-up interactions and conversations.

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

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

Yes, Dr. Emara understands that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many patients. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable, The Tooth Corner Dental Offices may offer various sedation options, such as nitrous oxide (laughing gas) and oral conscious sedation. Please discuss your anxiety openly with Dr. Emara during your consultation so they can determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.

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 through employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Always check your private dental insurance and verify any potential public coverage before treatment.

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). Dr. Emara will determine the frequency based on your individual needs, adhering to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.

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

Generally, every 6 months is recommended for preventative care. Dr. Emara will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs and risk factors. Following Dr. Emara's specific recommendation is important.

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

Dr. Emara 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.

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

A General Dentist like Dr. Emara provides primary dental care, offering preventative care (check-ups, cleanings), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns), basic endodontics (root canals), simple extractions, initial gum disease management, and may offer cosmetic procedures. They educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for complex needs. Dr. Emara may offer specialized services in areas like General Dentistry with Certified Sedation Options.
