First Visit

Your first visit will normally include a comprehensive examination, X-rays and a cleaning.  We will determine your dental needs (both hard and soft tissue) after a thorough evaluation.  Occasionally a routine professional cleaning will not be administered the same day  if your diagnosed with periodontal disease, a condition requiring a more in-depth cleaning with frequent intervals or referral to a specialist for treatment.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

  1. Your referral slip and any X-rays if applicable. A list of medications you are presently taking.
  2. If you have medical or dental insurance, bring the necessary completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.

IMPORTANT: A parent or guardian must accompany all patients under 18 during dental treatment.

Please Alert the Office

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.) or require medication prior to dental cleanings (i.e antibiotics, for pre-med.)

X-Rays

If your previous dentist has taken recent x-rays (within 6-months), 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 films are necessary, they can be taken at our facility.
