YOUR FIRST VISIT
Your initial appointment will consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Occasionally, treatment can be done the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.
Please assist use by providing the following information at the time of your first appointment:
- Your referral slip and 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: A parent or guardian must accompany all patients under 18 at the consultation visit.
Please alert our office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.) or require medication prior to dental cleanings (i.e. antibiotics for pre-med.)
RADIOGRAPHS (X-RAYS)
If your referring dentist has taken radiograph (x-rays), they may have them forwarded to our office, yet we will be updating your films for our records at your first appointment. Any appointments occurring after a 6 month time frame may be subject to another radiograph, and re-evaluation.
