First Visit

Your first visit will consist of a truly comprehensive exam and interview in which our doctors learn about your dental history and concerns and gather an accurate picture of your oral health. We reserve extra time to form a complete assessment and plan for  healthy, happy  dental function for your lifetime.  Please be aware your first visit will be longer than your typical recare visit and you should plan for  about an hour and forty-five minute appointment including your dental cleaning.

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 dentist or physician 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.
