First visit
What to Expect at Your First Visit
An unhurried, comprehensive evaluation — and a clear plan for what comes next.
Your first visit is mostly about getting to know each other. We’ll examine your mouth carefully, listen to your concerns, and build a plan together — not hand you a treatment list and run.
The visit, step by step
Check-in and forms review. A comprehensive exam — every tooth, every gum pocket, your bite, your jaw, soft tissue. Digital X-rays if needed. An oral cancer screening. A professional cleaning. A clear, honest conversation about what we found and what (if anything) you want to do about it.
How long it takes
Plan on about 60 to 90 minutes. We don’t rush new-patient visits — taking time now means everything that follows is built on the right diagnosis.
