During your first appointment, you can expect to receive individualized attention from the whole team. You will receive digital x-rays, a thorough exam with the doctor, and a healthy mouth cleaning. At this time, we will discuss any concerns you may have, and how diet, oral hygiene habits, or other lifestyle factors can affect your oral health. We will also review you options for any areas of your mouth that we may need to address.
