A More Thorough Approach to Your First Visit
Your first appointment is designed to give us the time to understand you, your dental health and any concerns you may have. Rather than focusing only on individual teeth, we take a broader look at your oral health and the factors that may influence your ongoing care.
Your New Patient Check-Up & Clean includes time with both a Dentist and an Oral Health Therapist or Dental Hygienist. With a comprehensive assessment, digital imaging and preventive care, we can build a detailed picture of your dental health and discuss our findings with you clearly.
