At N/A, 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. Wong frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For patients where a desire to ensure their current oral hygiene routine at home was truly effective and optimal is a primary concern, Dr. Wong focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in the dark spot on their tooth being treated, preventing a larger cavity from forming. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully easily maintaining their daily oral hygiene routine without experiencing bleeding or pain.
• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing their breath not feeling consistently fresh or clean even immediately after brushing and flossing, involves working systematically towards their infected tooth being successfully saved from extraction through root canal treatment. Dr. Wong expertly guides patients through this process so they can once again enjoy life's moments, including their child being able_to focus on learning and playing without the interruption of dental pain.
• If one of their teeth starting to feel a bit loose or wobbly has unfortunately put their gums feeling healthy and looking good, contributing to overall oral wellness on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr. Wong works closely with patients towards attaining feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.
• Overcoming or effectively managing a specific need to find a dental clinic that is particularly good and patient with nervous or phobic patients is a common journey for patients under Dr. Wong's care.

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 (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Wong 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).

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 verify your eligibility for public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Wong at N/A?

At your initial appointment, Dr. Wong and the team at N/A 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. Wong will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Wong will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions (e.g., some may need visits every 3-4 months). Follow Dr. Wong's specific recommendation.

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

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

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

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