First Visit Expectations for New Patients
We pride ourselves on providing quality, affordable services to new patients. We offer many payment options, including Lending Club and CareCredit. We can additionally prioritize and stagger your treatments to give you the amazing smile you deserve in a timeframe you can afford.
1. Understanding Your Medical and Dental History
Our team will start your appointment by asking a few questions about your medical and dental history. Certain medical conditions or medications can impact your treatment plan, so we will also ask you to list any medications you are taking and their dosages (including vitamins and supplements).
2. Comprehensive Oral Exam
We will then perform a comprehensive oral exam. This may include x-rays and a non-invasive oral cancer screening. If no signs of periodontal disease are present, one of our hygienists will continue with a routine cleaning. If we do notice signs of periodontal disease, we may ask you to reschedule the cleaning portion of your appointment to allow more time for a thorough cleaning.
3. Creating a Plan For Your Future
Once your exam is finished, we will discuss our findings with you. Together, we will create a treatment plan that best fits your dental desires, while also giving you a healthy smile.
Financial Options
We want to help new patients receive the dental care they deserve. We discuss all cost and payment options with you to make sure you are comfortable with your treatment plan and to answer any questions you have prior to the start of treatment. You will never have surprises when it comes to your bill.
DENTAL INSURANCE
We want new patients to get the most out of their budget, so we work with your insurance provider to ensure you get the best coverage available to you.
