What should I expect at my new patient appointment?

Your New Patient appointment is a time for us to get to know each other. There is always paperwork, which can be done online prior to your appointment to save time. Once here, if you don’t have any current x-rays from your previous dentist, we will begin with updating any x-rays. Then a hygienist will perform dental and periodontal charting to ensure our records match your mouth’s condition. If our hygienist determines your cleaning to be routine, she will begin cleaning your teeth. Our goal is to complete this process in one appointment, though it may not always be possible. If your mouth isn’t routine and may have periodontal or gum issues, the hygienist will assess and call the dentist for an exam. Your new patient exam is comprehensive, addressing all dental aspects. Dr. Neda will perform an enhanced oral cancer screening, examine your existing dental work, and diagnose any necessary treatment. There will be time for your questions and concerns. Follow-up appointments for cleanings or dental treatment will be scheduled before you leave. We strive to treat all our patients like family!
