Absolutely. Please let us know ahead of time if there are any special arrangements you or a loved one require. We're happy to accommodate you in any way we can.

We're happy to welcome you to our practice. We'll start by taking a complete medical and dental history and will ask you about any current concerns. Our team will take full-mouth x-rays to identify any dental problems and to create a baseline for future dental visits. We will evaluate the health of your teeth and existing dental work to ensure they are free of damage and assess the health of your gums. We'll also perform a head and neck exam, including an evaluation of your salivary glands and lymph nodes, and will conduct an oral cancer screening to rule out potential abnormalities. 

You will likely receive a regular cleaning, who will remove plaque and tartar buildup from your tooth surfaces and along your gum line. We’ll also polish your teeth and remove any remaining plaque and debris. We may recommend a fluoride treatment to lower your risk of future tooth decay. 

If you have periodontal disease, then the required cleaning will be a deep cleaning, which will be subject to availability with the schedule as it takes much more time to properly clean your teeth. Not every mouth can get a regular cleaning and dependent on every individual's needs.

At the conclusion of your appointment, we will discuss any current needs and preventive measures required to keep your smile in tip-top shape. We will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan for long-term oral health. 

According to the American Dental Association, you should schedule dental visits at intervals determined by your dentist. In general, patients require twice-yearly exams and cleanings. However, some patients with gum disease or those at a higher risk of developing dental problems will require more frequent appointments. Our team will evaluate your unique needs and recommend the ideal frequency of visits to maintain your healthy smile.
