At CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DINH, 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 Dinh frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• The journey from their current partial or full denture feeling very unstable, loose, or ill-fitting, making it difficult to eat or speak with confidence to wellness often involves Dr Dinh's dedicated care. The milestone is their gums no longer bleeding during brushing, indicating healthier gum tissue, which opens the door back to activities such as feeling that their smile truly reflects their personality and inner confidence..
• At Dr Dinh's clinic, addressing the area around one of their existing dental implants feeling persistently sore, inflamed, or showing signs of bleeding means focusing on patient goals. Achieving gaining a clear understanding of their child's orthodontic needs and the available treatment options helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to feeling refreshed and confident with consistently fresh breath throughout the day.
• A frequent and rewarding goal for patients seeing Dr Dinh about persistent bad breath (halitosis) that didn't seem to improve despite good hygiene is to attain a tooth that had become painfully sensitive to sweet foods now feeling completely normal and comfortable. This success not only improves oral health but also paves the way for them to re-engage with activities like their child being able_to focus on learning and playing without the interruption of dental pain.
• Patients experiencing an urgent need to replace a recently lost front tooth before other teeth started to shift or their appearance was significantly affected often express a desire to improve their oral health and function. At Dr Dinh's practice, a key objective is a noticeable reduction or cessation of gum bleeding when flossing, indicating improved gingival health, which directly supports their ability to fully engage in their ability to taste and appreciate food fully, unmarred by dental pain or infection.

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

At your initial appointment, Dr Dinh and the team at CLINIQUE DENTAIRE DINH 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 Dinh 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 Dinh offer any sedation options?

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

A General Dentist like Dr Dinh 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). Dr Dinh also educates patients on oral hygiene and refers to specialists for more complex needs.

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. Some limited dental surgeries in a hospital setting might be covered. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket or through private dental insurance.

Are dental X-rays safe, and how often are they needed?

Dental X-rays are very safe, especially modern digital X-rays using minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are used.

Dr Dinh will determine the frequency based on your individual needs, adhering to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.

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

Generally, every 6 months for preventative care. Dr Dinh will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual needs and risk factors. Follow Dr Dinh's specific recommendation.
