When you visit A Center For Dental Health for the first time, you will experience a comprehensive examination. One of our hygienists will examine your mouth, clean your teeth, and take a set of x-rays. Then, the dentist will ask you about your medical history and check your x-rays for signs of decay, oral cancer, and other problems.

Even if you have had regular dental care at another office, our doctors will want to become familiar with your overall health. This will enable them to identify any changes or problems in the future.

Make sure you mention all of the following during your discussion:

• Dental history – past problems, treatments, surgeries
• Dental health – your habits, current bothersome or sensitive areas
• Overall health – everything, even if you don’t think it relates to your mouth
• Medications – current medications and dosages
• Your fears – many people experience dental-related anxiety. We want your visit to be stress-free and relaxing, so we offer a variety of calming services:
• • Cozy blankets and neck pillows
  • DVD players (watch one of our movies or bring your own!)
  • Gentle anesthetics
  • FREE nitrous oxide ("laughing gas")
  • IV Conscious sedation

Following your exam, we will explain your treatment plan.  This will include the doctor's findings and your exam results, your treatment options, and scheduling your treatment plan.  We will also go over your payment options and how much of your treatment your insurance is willing to cover.  During this consultation you will have the opportunity to ask any questions you have about your treatment plan.  Don't be afraid to ask about anything you don't understand!  We want you to be as informed as possible about your treatment.
