Getting started is simple. We have a few convenient ways for you to schedule an appointment. Simply call our office or schedule online. Our friendly team is also available to help you find a convenient time and answer any preliminary questions you may have about your first visit.
What to Bring to Your First Appointment
To help our team best treat your oral health needs and build a customized treatment plan, please bring the following information to your first new patient appointment:
- X-rays you’ve had taken elsewhere. X-rays can also be forwarded to our office from your last dentist upon your request.
- A list of medications you are currently taking.
- Any current medical concerns or conditions.
- Your dental insurance card, if you are covered and paying through insurance.
Meeting Our Compassionate Team
During your first visit, you’ll be welcomed by our front office staff and introduced to your dental care team. We take time to get to know you, understand your dental goals, answer any questions, and ensure you feel as comfortable as possible in our care. We consider your first visit the beginning of a long-term relationship with us, so you can always expect open, empathetic customer service in a relaxing environment right from the start.
Starting with a Thorough Exam and Cleaning
Depending on your needs, your initial appointment usually includes a comprehensive exam, digital X-rays, and a gentle professional cleaning. This allows us to evaluate your oral health, detect any concerns early, and create a personalized treatment plan if needed. We’ll also provide helpful tips on maintaining your oral health.
Creating a Customized Treatment Plan with Next Steps
We’ll discuss our findings in detail and answer any questions you have. We take the time on your first visit to identify any immediate dental concerns and review your past medical and dental history. If treatment is needed, we’ll review your options, prioritize your care, and review your insurance benefits or financing options to help you move forward confidently.
Your comfort and trust mean everything to us. From your first phone call to follow-up care, we’re committed to providing a positive, supportive experience for new patients. We look forward to welcoming you into our dental family and helping you achieve the healthy, radiant smile you deserve. Ready to begin? Contact us today—we can’t wait to meet you!
