At CLINIQUE ART DENTAIRE FAMILIALE, 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 Molani frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• The journey from experiencing diffuse facial pain or muscle tenderness that they suspected might be related to their jaw joint or bite to wellness often involves Dr Molani's dedicated care. The milestone is their child stopping their thumb-sucking habit with supportive guidance, protecting their dental development, which opens the door back to activities such as delivering important presentations or public speeches with clarity and self-assurance.
• If a tooth that suddenly became extremely and uncharacteristically sensitive to cold water or air, causing sharp pain has unfortunately put their TMJ comfort allowing them to yawn, laugh, and speak without restriction or pain on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr Molani works closely with patients towards attaining achieving straighter teeth and an improved bite with discreet clear aligner therapy, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Molani at CLINIQUE ART DENTAIRE FAMILIALE?

Your first visit with Dr Molani 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 Molani 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.

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

For most adults and children, check-ups and cleanings every six months are generally recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Molani will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. For example, some patients may need visits every 3-4 months if managing active gum disease or at high caries risk, while others with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals between visits. It is crucial to follow Dr Molani's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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 always used to further minimize any potential exposure. X-rays are only taken when diagnostically necessary, such as for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan more complex treatments. Dr Molani 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).

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 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 essential to verify any potential public coverage you may be eligible for and always check your private dental insurance details regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at CLINIQUE ART DENTAIRE FAMILIALE.

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

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

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

A General Dentist like Dr Molani 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, sealants), restorative treatments (fillings, crowns, bridges), basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth), simple extractions, initial management of gum disease, and may also offer cosmetic procedures like whitening or bonding. They also provide education on oral hygiene and refer patients to specialists when more complex care is needed.
