The first time you come to the office you can expect the following:

• You will be here for about 60-90 minutes

• Please either fill out your paperwork beforehand (see Patient Forms) or arrive about 15 minutes early to fill out paperwork.

• We will input all of your paperwork into the computer system

• We will assess your gum health

• We will take any needed dental x-rays - generally we take x-rays of all your teeth

• The dentist will do an exam

• We will go over any dental issues we find and give you options on how to address the issues

• We will answer any questions you have

• If there is time, your teeth will be cleaned (see Dental Cleanings)
