What a general dentist covers

A general dentist looks after your overall oral health — routine examinations, professional cleaning, fillings, root-canal treatment, extractions, and the restoration or replacement of missing teeth with crowns, bridges, dentures or implants. General dentists also screen for gum disease and oral cancer, and refer to specialists (such as orthodontists or oral surgeons) where more complex care is needed.

What to expect at a consultation

A first visit usually begins with a discussion of your dental history and any concerns, followed by an examination of your teeth and gums and, where appropriate, X-rays. Dr Guay will explain his findings, outline the available options and their costs, and agree a treatment plan with you before any work begins.

Preparing for your appointment

Bring a list of any medications you take and details of past dental treatment. If you have dental anxiety, let the team know in advance — it helps them pace the visit and explain each step as they go.

Booking, referrals and fees

Appointments at AllSmiles Dental Care can be made directly with the clinic; a referral is not usually required for general dental care. Fees vary with the treatment involved, and the clinic can provide an estimate before you proceed. Selected treatments may be claimable under MediSave or company dental benefits where eligible.

Common questions

Yes. AllSmiles Dental Care accepts new patients for general and preventive dental care across its clinics.

How often should I have a dental check-up?

For most adults, a check-up and scaling every six to twelve months is recommended, though your dentist may suggest a different interval based on your oral health.

Which locations does Dr Guay work at?
