At N/A, 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. Al-Hadithi frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• For patients where a single tooth that had become noticeably darker in color than the adjacent teeth, possibly after trauma is a primary concern, Dr. Al-Hadithi focuses on creating personalized treatment plans that culminate in being able to enjoy a wider variety of foods without pain or difficulty chewing. This directly supports and enhances their ability to fully feeling comfortable and pain-free throughout their day, no longer bothered by a nagging dental problem.
• At Dr. Al-Hadithi's clinic, addressing needing urgent treatment for an infected or abscessed tooth to avoid losing it and to relieve severe pain means focusing on patient goals. Achieving their old, failing crown being replaced with a new, perfectly fitting, and aesthetic restoration helps them get back to enjoying life, including being able to simply relaxing and not having dental pain or problems on their mind constantly.
• It's always a professional highlight for Dr. Al-Hadithi to see patients who were troubled by a specific desire to ensure their gums remained healthy and stable as they got older, preventing future problems successfully achieve no longer experiencing annoying food impaction between their teeth after restorative treatment. This directly translates to their ability to return to and enjoy important activities like their child being free of dental infections that could affect their overall health and school attendance.
• When a new or changing bump, swelling, or unusual growth on their gums or oral tissues that they were worried about begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr. Al-Hadithi helps patients strive for their infected tooth being successfully saved from extraction through root canal treatment. This makes participating in activities such as their dentures allowing them to enjoy a more diverse and nutritious diet a pleasant and possible experience again.

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

For most adults and children, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every six months. However, Dr. Al-Hadithi will personalize your visit schedule based on your individual needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing dental conditions. For example, patients managing active gum disease or at high risk for cavities may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while those with excellent long-term oral health might have slightly longer intervals between appointments. It is crucial to follow Dr. Al-Hadithi's specific recommendations for your optimal oral health.

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

In Ontario, most routine and major dental procedures performed in private dental clinics are not covered by the provincial health plan (OHIP). Some limited dental surgeries performed in a hospital setting may be covered by OHIP. The majority of dental care costs are typically paid out-of-pocket by patients, through private dental insurance plans (often provided by employers), or through government assistance programs for eligible individuals and families (e.g., children from low-income families, seniors on specific benefits). It is essential to verify your eligibility for any potential public coverage and to carefully review your private dental insurance policy details (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before commencing treatment at N/A.

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

Modern digital dental X-rays are very safe, utilizing minimal radiation. Protective lead aprons are always used to further minimize exposure. X-rays are only taken when clinically necessary, such as for new patients, to detect cavities between teeth, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments. Dr. Al-Hadithi will determine the appropriate frequency based on your individual oral health, risk factors, and dental history, adhering to the ALARA principle (As Low As Reasonably Achievable).

Do I need a referral to see a general dentist like Dr. Al-Hadithi?

No, a referral is typically not needed to schedule an appointment with a general dentist like Dr. Al-Hadithi. You can contact N/A directly to arrange your visit.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Al-Hadithi at N/A?

Your initial visit will include a comprehensive dental examination. This involves reviewing 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. Al-Hadithi will discuss their findings, address your concerns, and develop a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will often be performed during this visit or scheduled for a follow-up appointment.
