Your First Visit
New patients receive a comprehensive examination which includes a screening for oral cancer, gum and bone disease, blood pressure, and systemic disorders. A routine oral exam is performed on established patients to determine any changes in dental and health status since the previous visit.
Your gum tissue is measured with a fine instrument ruler to calibrate in millimeters pocket depth between the tooth and the connective gum tissue around the tooth. Pocket depths more than 4 millimeters could indicate disease and infection. The deeper the pocket, the greater the extent plaque bacteria collects and infection in gum disease develops.
X-rays are taken as needed.
Tooth scaling and root planing occur as needed.
Routine cleanings also include a professional polishing (Prophy) that removes only the soft sticky plaque that is above the gum line.
Payment Policy
We realize that every patient’s financial situation is different, which is why we work hard to provide a variety of payment solutions to help you receive the dental care you need and deserve. Prior to scheduling any treatment, we provide each patient with an estimate of costs, broken down by insured and out-of-pocket costs. At your first visit, we will verify your current insurance information and reconfirm this information on subsequent visits so that we can remain up-to-date to best serve you. We ask that you pay out-of-pocket costs the day services are provided.
We are pleased to offer the following cash payment options and discounts:
- Major Service Payment Option: For treatment requiring two or more appointments (crowns, bridges, veneers, etc.), a two-payment option is available. 50% of your balance is due at the first appointment, and the balance is due upon your second appointment.
- Public Service & Senior Discounts: We are pleased to offer a 5% discount to the dedicated members of our military, law enforcement, public safety and educational institutions. We also extend this discount to all our seniors. This offer cannot be combined with any other offer and does not apply when the patient is using dental insurance for services.
