Initial Visit
We are here to provide for your dental needs as thoroughly and efficiently as possible. The initial visit is spent conducting a thorough examination. It includes:
1. A complete medical history to protect your health
2. Necessary X-rays to detect decay and to determine condition of supporting bone. If you have current X-rays from your previous dentist, please have them sent to us.
3. A clinical examination of the teeth and all soft tissues
(includes oral cancer screening).
4. Impressions for study models of your teeth, if necessary.
