First Visit

Your initial appointment will consist of a comprehensive, thorough examination where we will evaluate your teeth, gums, and jaw bone/muscles, checking for things like gum disease, decay, and oral cancer.  We will also discuss with you any concerns you may have about your oral health and what your dental goals are.  We will then review your treatment options and recommendations, working together to come up with a treatment plan that’s right for you. 

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

• Any x-rays taken by a previous dentist, if applicable.
• A list of medications you are presently taking.
• If you have dental insurance, bring the necessary completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.

IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to treatment (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medication (i.e., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.).

X-Rays

If your previous dentist has taken x-rays, you may request that they forward them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional x-rays are necessary, they can be taken at our facility.
