Your dentist believes the foundation of a healthy smile lies in the basics of general dentistry. That’s why we place a strong focus on professional dental checkups, the cornerstone of preventive care. Our practice has also invested in advanced technology to streamline your appointments and provide efficient care. You’ll benefit from our iTero digital scanners for comfortable impressions, digital X-rays for reduced radiation exposure, and laser technology for gentle gum care.
Plus, you can trust that our dental team will tell you the truth about your oral health. You will receive the same level of care we would give to our own family members. Here is what you can expect during your first appointment:
- Preparation – Our team will schedule you for a 90-minute block of time. It’s our goal for you to complete your first checkup with us in a single visit. You will see our team within five minutes of your arrival. No long waits!
- Exam – We will capture images of your mouth using digital X-rays and our iTero scanner. Your hygienist will examine your mouth, looking for cavities, gum disease, and other issues. Then, your dentist will perform his own thorough exam, as well as use AI-powered technology to analyze your X-rays and identify potential issues. Your dentist will also discuss any necessary treatments with you.
- Cleaning – If time allows, you’ll receive a thorough cleaning that removes plaque and tartar build-up from your teeth. When you leave our office, you’ll have a clear path to optimal oral health.
