Patient Information

What to Expect

You can expect one of two appointments to take place the first time you come to our clinic:

• If you are experiencing any dental related pain or discomfort, the doctor will diagnosis and render the necessary treatment to alleviate your pain and discomfort. If your treatment is outside the scope of our care, we will then refer you to the appropriate specialist.
• If you are NOT experiencing any dental related pain and wish to become an established patient of record, your first visit to our office will consist of an appointment with the doctor for a comprehensive dental examination and any necessary dental radiographs. The doctor will then review treatment options with you and together, both of you will decide the course of your dental care. You will then be scheduled back into our clinic so the agreed upon treatment can be completed.

We ask that you arrive at least fifteen minutes prior to the beginning of your first dental appointment to complete any necessary paperwork. Some of this paperwork may be completed prior to your appointment through an online link we can text or email you. For us to assist you better, we ask that you bring the following to your first appointment.

• A list of all current medications that you are taking.
• If you have dental insurance, please bring along originals or copies of any pertinent cards or information you may have.
• If you are transferring from another dental clinic, please notify us of this as we may request your dental records from your previous dental clinic.

Please note: all patients under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian, especially on their initial visit.

After all paperwork is complete, you will then be taken from the waiting room area into our clinic.

At this time, you will have an opportunity to meet with the doctor to discuss any and all concerns that you may have. Specific medical conditions that you will most certainly want to inform your doctor of include all heart ailments or surgeries, prosthetic joints, diabetes, hypertension, and organ transplants.

If your dental treatment is complex in nature, you may be scheduled back for a treatment planning appointment to discuss further details regarding your dental care.

We are required by federal and state law to maintain the privacy of your health information, and this is something we take very seriously. We can provide a copy of our privacy policy upon request, otherwise it is provided within our initial paperwork.

After the initial appointment, our team will schedule you for treatment. If you have any questions regarding your dental care, please do not hesitate to ask.

Thank you for considering us and we hope to see you soon.
