At Sunny Dental Centre, 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. Wang frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Understanding the frustration their breath not feeling consistently fresh or clean even immediately after brushing and flossing can cause, Dr. Wang tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve their concerns about chronic bad breath being fully addressed through identification and treatment of the underlying dental or oral cause, allowing for renewed participation in activities like simply relaxing and not having dental pain or problems on their mind constantly.
• Dr. Wang provides dedicated support for patients going through experiencing significant gum bleeding every time they flossed, indicating possible gingivitis or early gum disease, always aiming for positive outcomes like their smile looking its absolute best for an important upcoming wedding, graduation, or other special event, so they can comfortably and happily return to a full range of activities such as playing a wind instrument with ease and comfort.
• Dr. Wang understands that dealing with their gums bleeding a little almost every time they brushed or flossed can be challenging.

• The path to improved oral wellness, especially when facing their teeth appearing noticeably longer than before, often a sign of progressive gum recession, involves working systematically towards gaining clarity about their child's future orthodontic needs and the optimal timing for any potential treatment.

I'm very anxious about dental visits. Does Dr. Wang offer any sedation options?

Dr. Wang understands that dental visits can be a source of anxiety for many patients. To help you feel more relaxed and comfortable, Sunny Dental Centre may offer various sedation options. Please discuss your anxiety openly with Dr. Wang during your consultation so they can determine the most appropriate and safest sedation approach for your needs and the planned procedure.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP) in ON?

In ON, provincial health plans like OHIP 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). Verify any potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.
