EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR FIRST VISIT
Your first appointment as a new patient is a time especially dedicated to you. During your 60 minute complete dental checkup, you and Dr. Alex will have one on one time to discuss your goals and concerns. We will also gather necessary records like digital photographs and x-rays, and perform a comprehensive oral health evaluation, which includes oral cancer screening and TMJ function testing. Together, you and Dr. Alex will discuss your treatment options and formulate a plan to help you achieve your oral health goals.
LETS GO THROUGH WHAT TO EXPECT ON YOUR FIRST VISIT WITH US:
STEP 1
Your dental records
YOUR DENTAL RECORDS
Photos, digital x-rays and impressions
Pictures are worth a thousand words. When you and Dr. Alex can evaluate your photos together, it allows for better communication and understanding of the goals for your oral health. Therefore, a full set of 8 pictures are a standard part of your dental records.
We are proud to be a fully digital dental practice. That means instant visibility of the X-rays we take, and more importantly, far less radiation exposure to you. We will tailor our radiographic records based on your individual needs and risks for dental disease.
Sometimes, part of your complete records will involved taking impressions. We only use materials designed to minimize discomfort during the impression process which we know isn't fun. As always, communication will help us make it as comfortable as possible.
STEP 2
Your check up
OUR COMPREHENSIVE VIEW OF DENTAL HEALTH
The 4 Cornerstones
"If you picture your oral health as a table, your teeth, gums, tissues and jaw joint are the four legs."
- Dr. Alex
By taking the approach of separating oral health into 4 fundamental cornerstones, we guarantee that you will receive the most complete dental checkup ever! It's something we hear all the time, and are really proud of.
