Your First Visit: What to Expect
We do our best to make your dental visits with us as comfortable and personalized as possible! If your visit is due to a dental emergency, we may modify the following process, but in general, you can expect:
Warm Welcome
The moment you step inside our office, we’ll be here to welcome you! Our front office staff loves building close relationships with our patients, and we are excited to bring you into our dental family.
Meet the Team
You’ll be introduced to our team members who will be here to provide you with friendly dental care every time you visit our office. It’s perfectly alright if you don’t remember the names of our staff, but we make it a point to remember yours!
Consultation
The next step of your appointment is a consultation with one of our clinical team members. This is the perfect time to discuss what you do and don’t like about your smile as well as any dental problems you may be experiencing.
Digital X-Rays
An important part of your first visit is x-rays. These provide an in-depth view of your oral structures and the high-resolution images make it possible for our dentists to spot small cracks, cavities, and other problems with your teeth.
Examination
We will complete a thorough oral examination of your tissues, gums, bone, and teeth. We’ll check for decay, disease, periodontal pocket depths, and infection, and complete an oral cancer screening.
Hygiene Cleaning
Finally, we’ll complete a dental hygiene cleaning. Our hygienist will remove plaque and tartar buildup from your teeth, carefully floss each tooth, then polish your teeth with a gritty toothpaste.
Complimentary Gifts
You’ll always leave our office with a gift bag of items, including floss, toothpaste, and a new toothbrush. Now you can enjoy your newly cleaned teeth and maintain proper oral health until your next visit!
Enjoy Comprehensive Dental Care
Your first dental visit is certainly an introduction to our team and office. But it’s also an opportunity for us to evaluate your oral health and examine your smile for any functional or cosmetic issues. We’re proud to offer comprehensive dental care in our office and can restore your smile to full health and beauty comfortably and quickly! Additionally, by using such advanced technologies, our treatments are even more precise and efficient than ever before. To ensure all your dental care is affordable, we accept many dental insurances and can offer monthly payment plans.
