Consultation Appointment: We offer no-charge consultation appointments. A patient can ask about new dental procedures, or clarify their existing dental treatment plan. Patients can learn more about treatment options, financial arrangements, watch CD ROM and video programs on dental procedures or browse through our before and after gallery. Consultation appointments are available 7 days a week.
 
Diagnostic Exam: The diagnostic exam consists of a gathering of information. Necessary x-rays, diagnostic casts, health history, charting of existing conditions, diagnosis of needed dental treatment, and intraoral pictures are all part of our thorough exam process. Meeting patients expectations begins with this important information.
 
Emergency Exam: Pain knows no schedule. Toothaches and tooth injury, like those associated with sports, can happen without warning. At this appointment, the immediate needs are assessed and treated. Follow-up appointments can be scheduled to evaluate the patient’s priority of care.
 
Periodic Recall Exam: Usually performed in conjunction with a patient’s routine visit with the hygienist. Bitewing x-rays are taken at least once annually in order to reveal the beginning of any oral problems. Supportive tissues of bone and gingiva (gum) are monitored. It is also important for our denture wearers to schedule appointments with the hygienist and their dentist at least once a year. Your dentist will also check for any signs of oral cancer, which is a growing concern.
