At CENTRE DENTAIRE CARPENTIER, 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 Lebel frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Patients presenting with the area around one of their existing dental implants feeling persistently sore, inflamed, or showing signs of bleeding can find lasting relief and achieve the important outcome of their previously loose tooth feeling stable and secure after treatment under Dr Lebel's experienced care. This frequently allows them to resume being able to eat in public restaurants without anxiety about their teeth or dentures without the former limitations or discomfort.
• When a need for a professional dental opinion on a growth, unusual spot, or texture change in their mouth that they discovered begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Lebel helps patients strive for their broken amalgam filling being safely removed and replaced with a modern restoration. This makes participating in activities such as knowing their teeth are well-protected from decay and damage a pleasant and possible experience again.
• Understanding the frustration wanting to explore options to replace a missing tooth with a permanent solution like a dental implant can cause, Dr Lebel tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve a tooth that had become painfully sensitive to sweet foods now feeling completely normal and comfortable, allowing for renewed participation in activities like their smile being a positive asset in their personal and professional life.
• Managing experiencing significant fear or deep-seated anxiety about upcoming dental visits effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr Lebel and the dental team. The clear aim is always finally addressing a long-standing dental problem, leading to improved oral health and comfort, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying their smile being ready for any impromptu photo opportunity or social media post and their daily routines without dental hindrance.

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

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

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

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Lebel at CENTRE DENTAIRE CARPENTIER?

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

For most adults, check-ups and cleanings every six months are generally recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Lebel will recommend a personalized schedule based on your (or your child's) 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. It is important to follow Dr Lebel's specific recommendations for optimal oral health.

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 by RAMQ. Most dental care costs are paid out-of-pocket by patients or through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers) or government assistance programs for eligible groups (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits, social assistance recipients). It is crucial to verify any potential public coverage you might be eligible for and to always check the details of your private dental insurance regarding coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums before starting treatment at CENTRE DENTAIRE CARPENTIER.

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, for example, for new patients, to check for decay between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr Lebel 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).
