First Visit

Initial visit

Your initial visit will consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Occasionally, treatment can be performed the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will often require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.

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

  • A list of your current medications
  • 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

Additional Initial Visit Considerations

IMPORTANT: A parent or guardian must accompany all patients under 18 at the consultation visit.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery including:

  • Diabetes
  • High blood pressure
  • Artificial heart valves and joints
  • Rheumatic fever
  • Medication such as heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.

X-Rays

If your previous 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 films are necessary, they can and will be taken at our facility.
