New Patient Experience

What can I expect?

When you call the office you will speak with our Patient Care Coordinator, who will get the necessary information from you about your dental history and recent x-rays, as well as your dental concerns. For your added convenience, please fill out your new patient paperwork online before you visit us. By the time you arrive at the office, we have collected x-rays and records from the previous dentist and researched your insurance information, if any. Our goal is to simplify your transition to the office. Whatever your concerns, we will develop a custom plan that meets your dental needs.

Your new patient visit will include:

• Having necessary x-rays taken and discussed with you
• Taking photographs to assess facial contours, lip support, and teeth
• Six screenings
  
• • Risk assessment/ Health History
  • Head & Neck/Oral Cancer
  • Airway
  • Occlusal (Bite)
  • Restorative
  • Periodontal
