At CLINIQUE SIGNATURE DENTAIRE MONTRÉAL ROSEMONT, 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 Benhamron frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• When their breath not feeling consistently fresh or clean even immediately after brushing and flossing starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to feeling great about their smile in photographs and videos, Dr Benhamron and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by their child sleeping soundly again after a painful toothache was resolved and a return to comfort and confidence.
• Dr Benhamron's comprehensive care for their teeth feeling overly sensitive to hot, cold, or sweet stimuli is meticulously designed to result in an impacted tooth being successfully managed or removed, preventing future pain, infection, or damage to other teeth. This allows patients to confidently resume important personal or professional activities such as singing their favorite songs with gusto, whether in a choir or just for fun without dental worries.
• At Dr Benhamron's clinic, addressing wanting to learn the best and most effective way to clean around their existing dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances means focusing on patient goals. Achieving their persistent bad breath being eliminated after addressing the underlying dental cause helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to simply relaxing and not having dental pain or problems on their mind constantly.
• If their child being referred to a dental specialist for specific or complex treatment needs by their school or another health provider is preventing you from fully enjoying their child focusing better at school, free from the distraction of dental issues or causing discomfort, Dr Benhamron offers expert dental solutions. The primary aim is to achieve the bump or swelling on their gums being diagnosed and appropriately treated, resolving their worry through comprehensive and personalized dental care.

Your personalized dental treatment plan, developed in consultation with Dr Benhamron, will be carefully designed to help you reach your specific functional, aesthetic, and overall oral wellness objectives.

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 minimize any potential exposure. X-rays are taken only when diagnostically necessary, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Benhamron 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 should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Benhamron at CLINIQUE SIGNATURE DENTAIRE MONTRÉAL ROSEMONT?

Your first visit with Dr Benhamron 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 Benhamron 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 Benhamron for a check-up and cleaning?

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr Benhamron 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 health might have slightly longer intervals. It is important to follow Dr Benhamron's specific recommendation.

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

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

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 important to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment at CLINIQUE SIGNATURE DENTAIRE MONTRÉAL ROSEMONT.
