First Visit

Thank you for choosing our office for all your dental needs.  We have created a comfortable environment where you can feel confident in the level of dental care you receive.  When you arrive for your first visit, please be prepared to complete all insurance and health information forms that will allow us to begin your dental treatment.  To fill out these forms before your arrive for your first visit, please see our Forms page.

Your initial exam will last approximately one hour.  This visit will help us get acquainted with each other and learn about your goals and desires for your dental treatment.  Generally, x-rays will be taken allowing us to examine the jaw’s structure, teeth position, and teeth decay.  Please have your previous dentist send us any x-rays taken in the past 5 years.  We will do a head and neck exam, oral cancer screening, and examinations of your teeth and gums.  We will then meet with you to discuss our findings and any proposed treatment and to answer any questions you may have.

We believe that good dental care begins with open communication.  We promise to speak candidly with you about any symptoms present that may require further dental treatment, our diagnosis, alternative treatments that may exist, and our recommendations.  Working together, we can achieve a true partnership, with one common goal-keeping your smile beautiful and your teeth, gums, and jaw joints healthy!
