Many people feel uneasy about dental treatment. But if you haven’t been to the dentist in a while, you will be pleasantly surprised. Our gentle approach to care will make your visit a positive experience. Stereo headphones, Nitrous-oxide sedation and other options help you feel as comfortable as possible.
Your Initial Visit
The most valuable service we can give is a thorough and complete examination. Virtually all dental problems—decay, gum disease, temporomandibular joint (TMJ or jaw joint) difficulties, loose teeth and oral cancer—are easily detected in their early stages and can be treated economically and comfortably at that time.
Your first visit will consist of your dental exam. Only the necessary x-rays will be taken. In addition, plaster study models of your teeth may be made. We will then discuss our treatment plan with you, as well as potential treatment options and our fees. Together we’ll decide on the services you wish us to provide.
Follow-Up Appointments
Did you know your mouth is an early warning system? Careful oral examinations can alert us to potentially serious problems. And early detection—through regular follow-up appointments—gives you a headstart toward good health.
Depending upon your special needs, your continuing care interval will be determined by the hygienist and doctor. These visits are usually brief and informative, because we’ll be checking for signs of improving dental health.
Your Safety is Our Concern
Our commitment to your health involves more than quality dentistry. In light of today’s heightened awareness, we’ve established a sterilization program designed to ensure the safety of both patients and staff. You’ll probably notice our masks and gloves, but there’s more to it than that. We’re proud to insist on the highest safety protocols.
