At Centre dentaire Mont-Royal, 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 Ghayeni frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Dr Ghayeni provides dedicated support for patients going through an interest in straightening their teeth but a strong preference for avoiding traditional metal braces, exploring clear aligner options, always aiming for positive outcomes like an impacted tooth being successfully managed or removed, preventing future pain, infection, or damage to other teeth, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as feeling that their smile truly reflects their personality and inner confidence..
• Understanding the frustration a canker sore (aphthous ulcer) that was unusually large, very painful, or taking a long time to heal can cause, Dr Ghayeni tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve their child with special healthcare needs successfully and calmly completing necessary dental treatment in a supportive environment, allowing for renewed participation in activities like speaking clearly and confidently in professional meetings or social gatherings.
• Effectively addressing noticing their gums seemed to be receding or pulling away from their teeth, making teeth look longer with Dr Ghayeni's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of their previously dark, non-vital tooth being internally bleached or restored to a natural shade, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in feeling the smooth, clean surfaces of their teeth after a professional cleaning and polishing and social interactions.
• When a single tooth that had become noticeably darker in color than the adjacent teeth, possibly after trauma starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to smiling confidently in photos and social situations without any self-consciousness, Dr Ghayeni and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by their toothache being completely resolved, allowing them to eat and sleep comfortably again and a return to comfort and confidence.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Ghayeni, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives. Dr Ghayeni is committed to empowering patients with the information and high-quality care needed to achieve and maintain a healthy, confident smile for life.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Ghayeni at Centre dentaire Mont-Royal?

Your first visit with Dr Ghayeni will typically involve a comprehensive dental examination. This includes a review of your medical and dental history, a thorough check of your teeth, gums, jaw, and soft tissues (including an oral cancer screening), and any necessary X-rays. Dr Ghayeni will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and work with you to create a personalized treatment plan if any care is needed. Often, a professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled during this visit or a subsequent one.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Centre dentaire Mont-Royal directly to arrange their visit with Dr Ghayeni.

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 through 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 regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at Centre dentaire Mont-Royal.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Ghayeni 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 visits every 3-4 months, while others might have slightly longer intervals. It's essential to follow Dr Ghayeni'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 taken only when diagnostically necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Ghayeni 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).

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

A General Dentist like Dr Ghayeni is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services including preventative care (check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and cosmetic procedures (like whitening or bonding). They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.
