Your first visit, start to finish.
Here is exactly what happens, what to bring, and what it costs. Nothing surprising, and no lecture if it has been a few years.
A first visit takes about an hour.
1
A real conversation. You sit up, fully clothed, and tell us your history, your worries, and what you want for your smile.
2
Photos and a gentle exam. Low dose images and a careful look at teeth, gums, and bite. You see everything on the screen with us.
3
A cleaning, usually the same day. If your gums are healthy we clean at this visit so you do not need a second trip.
4
A written plan with prices. You leave knowing your options, your insurance estimate, and what each step costs.

A list of medications you take

Questions we hear a lot
It has been years since my last cleaning. Will you judge me?
No. Many of our patients came to us after a long break. We care about where you go from here.
Will it hurt?
A cleaning and exam should not hurt. If anything feels sharp, raise a hand and we stop right there.
How soon can I get in?
Usually within the same week. If you are in pain, call us and we will find room today.
Can my whole family come at once?
Yes. Ask for back to back family appointments and we will group you into one trip.
