First Visit

Your first visit to our practice marks the beginning of a partnership focused on your oral health and well-being. We understand that visiting a new dental practice can sometimes be overwhelming, so we aim to make your experience with us as comfortable and informative as possible.

During your first visit, you can expect a warm welcome from our friendly staff. We will take the time to get to know you and address any questions or concerns you may have. Our goal is to create a welcoming and supportive environment where you feel heard and valued.

Your initial appointment will typically include:

1. Consultation: You will meet with one of our experienced oral surgeons who will review your medical history and discuss your dental concerns and goals. This is an opportunity for you to share any specific issues you may be experiencing and ask any questions you may have about your treatment options.

2. Examination: A comprehensive oral examination will be performed to assess your oral health and identify any underlying issues. This may include digital X-rays or other imaging techniques to provide a detailed view of your teeth, jaws, and surrounding structures.

3. Treatment Plan: Based on the findings of your examination and consultation, your oral surgeon will develop a personalized treatment plan tailored to your individual needs and goals. We will take the time to explain your treatment options, including any recommended procedures, and answer any questions you may have.

4. Discussion of Financial Matters: Our team will discuss the cost of your treatment and go over your payment options and insurance coverage, if applicable. We believe that financial considerations should never stand in the way of receiving the care you need, so we will work with you to find a solution that fits your budget.

5. Next Steps: Before you leave, we will schedule any necessary follow-up appointments and provide you with detailed instructions to prepare for your treatment, if applicable.
