Dental Services in Canada

Expenditure on dental services, including treatment, dentures and extractions, a Canadian public health insurance system are not covered. Therefore, they must pay the patient alone.
In cases of severe dental pain can contact the nearest emergency room. Here, typically, the duty dentist treatment does not hold, and immediately remove unhealthy tooth, thereby providing immediate medical assistance. If the patient has no desire to lose a tooth, which may be cured, you will need to consult a regular dentist, and the sooner the doctor will enter - the better. The cost of the visit to the dentist depends on the degree of damage to the tooth. Thus, if the usual treatment to the tooth, then it will take from 50 to 100 dollars, but if you want to remove the nerve, clean canals, etc., the treatment will cost more substantial sum - to 500 - $ 600. Technical prosthesis in Canada requires more costly.

Reducing the cost of dental services in Canada can only be when there is constant work. This constant is not considered work under the contract. Standing apart from the employer wage offers so-called "Benefits" or benefits. The main Benefits typically provided health insurance for dentistryWhich applies to all family members. Taken together, the majority Benefits cover the cost of dental services in the amount of not more than 2-3 thousand a year.

Schools in Canada there is a special program, which provides for dental treatment for children from families with no means to pay for dental care. These children received treatment at free dentists who work with the Ministry of Education of Canada under the contract. On the one hand - this is a good help for people with financial problems, but on the other - the quality of treatment is markedly lower than in fee-based dental treatment.

Another way to reduce the cost of dental services is access to an "illegal" and dentists treat teeth at a lower cost. Immigrate to Canada dentists must pass exams to confirm their diploma. This process usually takes 2-3 years, so confirming the diploma start practicing professionals and treat irregular manner. A tooth for a cure for a doctor you can for 30 dollars, and do prosthetics - for $ 100. Subsequently, the "illegal" stomatology becomes legitimate ranks, increases their prices, and the dentist - "illegal immigrant" have to look again.

Notes about Canada

August 9, 1999, our family - Dmitry, Alina, Sonia (5,5 years) and Zhenya (1 year) - moved from St. Petersburg in the Canadian province of Nova Scotia. Soon after moving, I posted a story about our trip and equipping a new place. And from time to time (though not very regularly) add new chief committees on how we live here. To make it easier to pick out new material, links are in reverse chronological order. If you are on this site for the first time, it makes sense to start "from the beginning" (see end "TOC"). And more of our children can read on separate pages, they are dedicated (link also below). If you want to share your experiences or ask any questions - feel free to write to alina@kirsanov.com.
