What to Expect During Your First Visit

  • Have an examination of your teeth and gums including an oral cancer screening
  • Have us take any necessary dental radiographs and dental photographs.

Comprehensive Exam

Your initial exam will last approximately one hour. Your doctor will perform a thorough exam. In most cases, we will also clean your teeth if you don’t require extensive dental work. Generally, X-rays will be taken, allowing your doctor to examine your mouth for teeth decay, periodontal problems, jaw problems and any signs of oral cancer. These diagnostic records will help your doctor provide an evaluation outlining any existing dental problems and proposed treatment. We encourage you to ask questions. We’ll be glad to discuss any concerns you may have.
