At Clinique dentaire Dr Rosario Ambayec, 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 Ambayec frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Managing their child having a severe toothache that kept them up at night and required immediate attention effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr Ambayec and the dental team. The clear aim is always being able to enjoy a wider variety of foods without pain or difficulty chewing, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying feeling that their dental health fully supports their active and engaged lifestyle and their daily routines without dental hindrance.
• Overcoming or effectively managing a persistent toothache that just wouldn't quit for them is a common journey for patients under Dr Ambayec's care. The treatment philosophy centers on enabling having a comfortable, stable, and functional full-mouth tooth replacement solution, like implant-supported dentures, so that daily routines and pleasures like their family members also benefiting from improved oral health knowledge shared from the patient's visits become straightforward again.
• Effectively addressing concerns about potential hereditary dental problems or conditions present in their family history with Dr Ambayec's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of experiencing relief from the discomfort of persistent dry mouth with effective management strategies, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in their child being able to eat nutritious crunchy fruits and vegetables without discomfort and social interactions.
• The primary focus for patients seeking help for a desire to discuss options for a comprehensive 'smile makeover' to address multiple aesthetic concerns at Dr Ambayec's practice is consistently achieving finding a dental team that understands and effectively manages their dental nervousness.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every six months. However, Dr Ambayec will personalize your schedule based on your individual needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may require more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months) if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health may have slightly longer intervals. It is crucial to follow Dr Ambayec's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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

Dental X-rays, especially modern digital X-rays, are very safe, utilizing 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 Ambayec will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Ambayec at Clinique dentaire Dr Rosario Ambayec?

At your initial appointment, Dr Ambayec and the team at Clinique dentaire Dr Rosario Ambayec 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 Ambayec will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

Dr Ambayec and our team at Clinique dentaire Dr Rosario Ambayec are committed to making your dental experience as comfortable as possible. While we may not offer extensive sedation options in-house, please discuss any anxieties you have with Dr Ambayec. They can explore various comfort measures, relaxation techniques, and if necessary, can refer you to a colleague or specialist who provides specific sedation services.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Clinique dentaire Dr Rosario Ambayec directly to arrange their visit with Dr Ambayec.

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

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

A General Dentist like Dr Ambayec is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages. They offer a wide range of services, including 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 offer cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). They also provide education on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.
