First Visit

Your initial appointment will consist of a comprehensive evaluation to gather diagnostic information necessary to determine your treatment options. Occasionally, treatment can be performed the same day as the evaluation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require a second appointment to discuss options and make treatment decisions.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

• Any x-rays if applicable
• A list of medications you are presently taking
• If you have medical or dental insurance, bring the necessary completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.

IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit.

A pre-operative consultation and physical examination is mandatory for patients undergoing IV anesthesia for surgery. Please have nothing to eat or drink eight hours prior to your surgery. You will also need an adult to drive you home.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.)

X-Rays

If your dentist has taken x-rays, you may request that they email them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional films are necessary, they can be taken at our facility.
