Following Dr Champagne's specific recommendation is key.

- What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Champagne at Dr Benoît Legault?
- At your initial appointment, Dr Champagne and the team at Dr Benoît Legault 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.

- 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.

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

Some specific, limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket or through private dental insurance. Verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.
