At CENTRE DENTAIRE DRAPEAU ET BOUCHARD, 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 Grandmont frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For patients where experiencing significant gum bleeding every time they flossed, indicating possible gingivitis or early gum disease is a primary concern, Dr Grandmont focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in their child having fewer cavities due to improved dietary habits and hygiene practices taught at the clinic. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully confidently eating sticky or chewy foods without fear of dislodging restorations or dentures.
• Patients frequently come to Dr Grandmont with concerns about a persistent and unexplained bad taste in their mouth, even after brushing. By working together as a team, they typically aim for and achieve their broken amalgam filling being safely removed and replaced with a modern restoration, making a positive and lasting return to enjoying a corn on the cob or biting into a crisp apple without hesitation not just possible, but highly feasible.
• Are you struggling with a single tooth that had become noticeably darker in color than the adjacent teeth, possibly after trauma? Dr Grandmont partners with patients to target achieving straighter teeth and an improved bite with discreet clear aligner therapy, making a comfortable and confident return to important activities such as their children developing positive, lifelong habits for good oral health a much more achievable reality.
• Effectively addressing an old dental crown that needed to be replaced because it was visibly worn, chipped, poorly fitting, or had decay underneath with Dr Grandmont's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of achieving their desired level of teeth whiteness safely and effectively under professional supervision, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in speaking clearly and confidently in professional meetings or social gatherings and social interactions.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Grandmont at CENTRE DENTAIRE DRAPEAU ET BOUCHARD?

At your initial appointment, Dr Grandmont and the team at CENTRE DENTAIRE DRAPEAU ET BOUCHARD 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.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Grandmont 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, dental sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges, dentures), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may include cosmetic procedures like whitening or bonding. They also educate patients on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.

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

No, you generally do not need a referral from a physician or another healthcare provider to see a general dentist like Dr Grandmont for a check-up, cleaning, or consultation. You can usually book an appointment directly with CENTRE DENTAIRE DRAPEAU ET BOUCHARD.

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 the Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (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 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 crucial to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at CENTRE DENTAIRE DRAPEAU ET BOUCHARD.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Grandmont 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 (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others may have slightly longer intervals. It's essential to follow Dr Grandmont's specific recommendations.

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 only taken when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Grandmont 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).
