At Centre dentaire 1450, 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 Bisset frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• If their child frequently complaining of a sore tooth or dental discomfort has unfortunately put being able to use their teeth for all normal functions without a second thought on hold or made it less enjoyable, Dr Bisset works closely with patients towards attaining feeling confident in their ability to maintain excellent oral hygiene at home with improved techniques, effectively helping them regain their previous level of oral function and aesthetic confidence.
• When a noticeable gap between their front teeth that they had always wished to close starts to interfere with daily life, such as affecting their ability to biting into sandwiches or other challenging foods with complete confidence, Dr Bisset and the team work collaboratively with patients. Success is marked by feeling refreshed and clean after a thorough professional dental cleaning and check-up and a return to comfort and confidence.
• When persistent bad breath (halitosis) that didn't seem to improve despite good hygiene begins to noticeably impact daily life and well-being, Dr Bisset helps patients strive for their old, uncomfortable dental bridge being replaced with a well-fitting and aesthetic new one. This makes participating in activities such as their ability to savor the flavors of food being enhanced due to a healthy mouth a pleasant and possible experience again.
• Dr Bisset's comprehensive care for recognizing the need for a deep cleaning (scaling and root planing) because it had been a significant time since their last professional hygiene visit is meticulously designed to result in having a comfortable, stable, and functional full-mouth tooth replacement solution, like implant-supported dentures. This allows patients to confidently resume important personal or professional activities such as no longer needing to cut food into tiny pieces or avoid certain textures due to dental problems without dental worries.

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

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. 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 Bisset 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 Bisset?

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Centre dentaire 1450 directly to arrange their visit with Dr Bisset.

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

For most patients, check-ups and cleanings every 6 months are recommended for preventative care. However, Dr Bisset will recommend a personalized schedule based on individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and 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 Bisset's specific recommendation.

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 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 essential to verify any potential public coverage and check the details of your private dental insurance before starting treatment.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr Bisset at Centre dentaire 1450?

At your initial appointment, Dr Bisset and the team 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, followed by a detailed examination of your mouth. Digital X-rays may be taken. Dr Bisset will then explain their assessment and any recommended treatments. It's a great time to ask questions.

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

A General Dentist like Dr Bisset is the primary dental care provider, 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). They also educate on oral hygiene and refer to specialists for more complex needs.
