What to Expect at Your First Visit
We know that visiting a new dentist can feel uncertain. Here is exactly what happens during your first appointment so there are no surprises.
Check-In & Paperwork
Arrive about 15 minutes early if you have not completed your forms online. Our front desk team will collect your insurance card and ID, give you a quick tour of the office, and answer any questions.
Digital X-Rays & Imaging
Our digital X-rays use up to 80% less radiation than traditional film. They produce instant, high-resolution images that your dentist will review with you on a chairside screen.
Comprehensive Exam
Your dentist will perform a thorough evaluation of your teeth, gums, bite, jaw joints, and oral soft tissues. We screen for cavities, gum disease, oral cancer, and TMJ issues at every new patient visit.
Professional Cleaning
Our hygienist will remove plaque and tartar buildup, polish your teeth, and provide personalized brushing and flossing guidance. If you need a deeper cleaning, we will let you know before proceeding.
Treatment Plan & Next Steps
Your dentist will walk you through the findings, explain any recommended treatment, and discuss timelines and costs. There is no pressure — we give you the information you need to make confident decisions about your care.
Most new patient appointments take about 60 to 90 minutes. If you are experiencing pain or need urgent care, let us know when you book and we will prioritize your visit. Same-day emergency appointments are often available.
