Your first visit with us will hopefully be the beginning of a long and pleasant doctor-patient relationship. Here’s an idea of how your visit will go: 1. Upon entering our office, you will receive a smile and a friendly greeting. 2. A registered, licensed dental hygienist will interview you about medical history and record your current medications as well as record your vitals. 3. The hygienist will do a visual exam, and she and the doctor will assess your needs and determine your treatment for this appointment (digital imaging, periodontal exam, cleaning, topical application of fluoride, etc.). 4. After your treatment, the doctor will conduct a thorough exam and take time to clearly explain any needed treatment and all of your options. |
