RECEPTION
​
After you walk through our door, a friendly face will greet you and ask for important information about your medical history. This needs to be collected so we can provide the most suitable treatment recommendations that meet your needs. Depending on what we learn, we may need to modify treatment – but you can leave that up to us!
DENTAL FAQS
​
Have additional questions about the treatments we recommend? Want to fully understand your insurance and get the most out of your benefits? Our knowledgeable team will listen and help give you the answers you need to receive the care you deserve. We believe in transparency and excellent communication with all of our patients, at all times.
PREVENTIVE CLEANINGS
​
Just to let you know now … your first hygiene visit will likely be longer than others, even if you had a recent appointment elsewhere. This simply comes down to the fact we want to get acquainted with you and your smile before embarking on your treatment plan. At this point, we will create a mouth-map to track changes over time. It’s how we are able to pinpoint your specific oral health needs and concerns. That’s not all … we’ll also check for signs of oral cancer and TMJ (jaw joint) issues.
