First Visit

Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, and high-quality dental care. We understand your child may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to children’s needs, and it is our goal to make your son or daughter feel comfortable visiting our practice while we provide the best possible care.

Your first visit is all about your child: his or her comfort, happiness, and health

During your little one’s first visit, we will review the dental and medical history forms, and take X-rays of his or her teeth and mouth. Then one of our doctors will meet with you and your youngster to discuss the X-rays, help create an individual treatment plan, and answer any questions you may have.

At your next visit, one of our hygienists will clean and polish your child’s teeth, and inspect for any cavities or early signs of tooth decay or gingivitis.

Bring your smile, but also remember to bring these to your child’s first appointment:

• Your completed patient information form
• Your insurance card

Regular checkups are an important part of maintaining a healthy smile!

The American Dental Association recommends that children visit the dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings to keep their teeth and gums healthy.

We understand your family has a busy schedule, so when you’re preparing for a dental visit, please remember an appointment can last between 20 and 40 minutes.
