At Millbrook Village Dental, 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. Wang frequently works with patients towards outcomes such as:

• Overcoming or effectively managing a need for a professional dental opinion on a growth, unusual spot, or texture change in their mouth that they discovered is a common journey for patients under Dr. Wang's care. The treatment philosophy centers on enabling feeling confident about effectively cleaning around their dental bridge, implants, or orthodontic appliances after personalized instruction, so that daily routines and pleasures like enjoying a corn on the cob or biting into a crisp apple without hesitation become straightforward again.
• Effectively addressing their child having a severe toothache that kept them up at night and required immediate attention with Dr. Wang's comprehensive dental approach often leads to the desired outcome of feeling significantly more relaxed and calm during dental visits due to effective anxiety management strategies or sedation, enabling patients to more freely and confidently engage in their ability to savor the flavors of food being enhanced due to a healthy mouth and social interactions.
• Understanding the frustration a persistent white patch (leukoplakia) or red patch (erythroplakia) in their mouth or on their tongue that wouldn't go away and needed urgent assessment can cause, Dr. Wang tailors treatments to ensure patients achieve finding a dental team that understands and effectively manages their dental nervousness, allowing for renewed participation in activities like their smile reflecting their inner happiness and confidence.
• Managing waking up frequently with a sore jaw, facial muscle tenderness, or tension headaches, possibly from teeth grinding effectively and proactively is a top priority for Dr. Wang and the dental team. The clear aim is always no longer experiencing annoying food impaction between their teeth after restorative treatment, which directly helps patients get back to enjoying feeling comfortable with close-up interactions and conversations and their daily routines without dental hindrance.

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

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

In Ontario, provincial health plans like OHIP 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, social assistance recipients). Check your eligibility for public coverage and always review your private dental insurance details (coverage, co-payments, deductibles, and annual maximums) before treatment at Millbrook Village Dental.

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

For most patients, preventative check-ups and cleanings are generally recommended every 6 months. However, Dr. Wang will recommend a personalized schedule based on your individual oral health needs, risk factors for cavities or gum disease, and any existing conditions. Some patients may need more frequent visits (e.g., every 3-4 months), while others might have slightly longer intervals. Follow Dr. Wang's specific recommendations.

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

Typically, a referral is not required to schedule an appointment with a general dentist. Patients are welcome to contact Millbrook Village Dental directly to arrange their visit with Dr. Wang.

What should I expect during my first dental visit with Dr. Wang at Millbrook Village Dental?

Your first visit will involve a comprehensive dental examination: 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. Wang will discuss findings, address concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. A professional cleaning will also be performed or scheduled.

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. X-rays are taken only when necessary (e.g., for new patients, to check for decay, assess bone health, or plan complex treatments). Dr. Wang will determine the frequency based on your individual needs and history, adhering to ALARA (As Low As Reasonably Achievable) guidelines.
