Your First Visit
On your first visit to our office, our team will review your dental and medical history, and perform a complete dental examination. This initial examination usually involves taking some necessary x-rays, photographs, and occasionally some study models, which will help us assess your smile.
Following your initial assessment, we will discuss your current dental health with you, make some recommendations for treatment and maintenance, and work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that meets your needs and exceeds your expectations. This is also a very convenient time for you to have a thorough dental cleaning. This will be performed by one of our dental hygienists.
Your first visit will be approximately 40 minutes long. We recommend completing our New Patient Form in advance,* prior to arriving for your first appointment.
