Getting To Know You
Relax and take your first step towards good dental health. To serve you best, our staff will take the time to get to know you and your past dental history.
For a more in-depth explanation of our diagnostic process, see the information to the right.
A Thorough Evaluation
Every new patient to our office will fill out all of the necessary medical and dental history. Based on this, we then perform a complete head and neck examination, which includes but not limited to:
- Oral cancer screening
- Headaches / jaw pain (TMJ) diagnosis
- Traumatic oral habits such as grinding/clenching
- Even sleep apnea
- Oral cancer screening
- As well as any necessary x-rays
We then move on to a complete evaluation of your gums, bone, teeth and smile. Given the amount of time and effort we place in ensuring we have all of the information needed to properly treat you, and each individual’s treatment could vary significantly; therefore, we usually do not do cleanings in the same appointment.
