What to Expect

Getting to Know You

Your first visit gives us a chance to get to know you, understand your dental history, and make sure you feel comfortable. We’ll ask questions, listen attentively, and keep you well informed every step of your smile journey.

Getting to Know Your Smile

We’ll provide a judgment-free and thorough evaluation including pain-free X-rays and a physical examination of your mouth and jaw. Our goal is to get a complete view of your oral health.

Gentle Cleaning

We’ll offer you a pillow and blanket to help you settle in while you enjoy a gentle cleaning with one of our friendly hygienists. If you need a little extra help relaxing, nitrous oxide is also available.

Trust & Transparency

One of our experienced doctors will sit down with you to review your findings, answer all your questions, and offer any relevant treatments. You can expect complete honesty and transparency as a new member of our dental family.
