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

A General Dentist like Dr. Sohail 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 also include cosmetic procedures like teeth whitening or bonding. Dr. Sohail also educates patients on proper oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists when more complex care is needed.

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

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

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

Typically, no referral is needed to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients can contact N/A directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Sohail.

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

Dental X-rays are very safe, particularly modern digital X-rays which use minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are also used. X-rays are only taken when necessary for diagnosis (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Sohail will determine the frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, following guidelines like ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

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

Your first visit will involve completing a medical history form and discussing your dental concerns and goals with Dr. Sohail. A thorough examination of your mouth will follow, including digital X-rays if needed. Dr. Sohail will then explain their assessment and recommend any necessary treatment. It's an excellent opportunity to ask questions.

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. Some 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., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). Check your eligibility for any public coverage and review your private dental insurance details before starting treatment.
