What to Expect at Your First Appointment
Your first dental visit is all about you: your comfort, your health, and your smile. During your initial new patient dental exam, we will:
Review your dental and medical history forms
Take digital dental X-rays of your teeth and mouth
Have the doctor meet with you to review your X-rays, answer your questions, and create a personalized treatment plan
At your next visit, one of our gentle dental hygienists will provide a thorough teeth cleaning and polishing, while also checking your teeth and gums for any cavities, early signs of Tooth decay, or Gingivitis.
What to Bring to Your First Dental Appointment
Your completed new patient information forms
Your dental insurance card or coverage details
Regular Dental Checkups Keep Your Smile Healthy
The American Dental Association recommends visiting your dentist every six months for routine dental checkups and teeth cleanings to maintain a healthy smile. Regular exams allow us to prevent problems early and keep your teeth and gums strong for life.
We know your schedule is busy, so please plan for your first dentist appointment to last about 45 to 90 minutes.
