At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR SILVESTRO CESARE, 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 Cesare frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• The primary focus for patients seeking help for wanting to understand what was causing their teeth to appear worn down, shorter, or a bit translucent at Dr Cesare's practice is consistently achieving their child stopping their thumb-sucking habit with supportive guidance, protecting their dental development. This facilitates a confident and meaningful return to valued daily activities such as playing a wind instrument with ease and comfort.
• When a canker sore (aphthous ulcer) that was unusually large, very painful, or taking a long time to heal starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to feeling comfortable and pain-free throughout their day, no longer bothered by a nagging dental problem, Dr Cesare and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by an impacted tooth being successfully managed or removed, preventing future pain, infection, or damage to other teeth and a return to comfort and confidence.
• Dr Cesare expertly assists individuals in navigating the complexities of wanting to learn the best and most effective way to clean around their existing dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances. A successful and well-managed treatment outcome, exemplified by their infected tooth being successfully saved from extraction through root canal treatment, means they can happily and comfortably get back to simply relaxing and not having dental pain or problems on their mind constantly.
• For those affected by wondering if their child might need braces or orthodontic assessment for crooked teeth, Dr Cesare provides solutions that lead to their child receiving necessary specialized dental care thanks to a timely referral. This renewed health and confidence often translates to a joyful return to actively engaging in conversations without being preoccupied by a dental concern.

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

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

A General Dentist like Dr Cesare is the primary dental care provider for patients of all ages, offering a wide range of services. These include preventative care such as check-ups, cleanings, X-rays, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants. Restorative treatments encompass fillings, crowns, bridges, and basic endodontics (root canals on less complex teeth). Dr Cesare also performs simple extractions and provides initial management of gum disease. Cosmetic procedures, like whitening or bonding, may also be offered. Furthermore, Dr Cesare educates patients on proper oral hygiene and refers patients to specialists for more complex needs.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Cesare at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR SILVESTRO CESARE?

At your initial appointment, Dr Cesare and the team at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR SILVESTRO CESARE 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. Digital X-rays may be taken to get a complete picture. Based on this, Dr Cesare will explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

Dr Cesare and our team at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR SILVESTRO CESARE are committed to making your dental experience as comfortable as possible. While we may not offer extensive sedation options in-house, please discuss any anxieties you have with Dr Cesare. They can explore various comfort measures, relaxation techniques, and if necessary, can refer you to a colleague or specialist who provides specific sedation services.

Is dental treatment generally covered by provincial health plans like Régie de l'assurance maladie du Québec (RAMQ) in QC?

In QC, 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). Always verify your potential public coverage and check your private dental insurance details before treatment.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Cesare will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others may have slightly longer intervals. Follow Dr Cesare's specific recommendation.

What are the most effective ways to prevent cavities (tooth decay)?

To effectively prevent cavities, maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing thoroughly twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and flossing daily. It's also crucial to eat a balanced diet, limiting sugary and acidic foods/drinks, especially between meals. Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings with Dr Cesare are essential for early detection and prevention. Dr Cesare may also recommend dental sealants or professional fluoride treatments for added protection, particularly for children.

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, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr Cesare 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).

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

Typically, no referral is needed to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients can contact CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DR SILVESTRO CESARE directly to arrange a visit with Dr Cesare.
