WHAT TO EXPECT

We are always excited to meet our new patients! We know that every patient is unique, and we are committed to providing you with the highest quality endodontic care based on your individual needs. The field of endodontics has advanced greatly in the past decades allowing for a very smooth patient experience that is not very different from having a tooth filled or being treated for other common dental procedures.

Your first visit at our office will consist of a comprehensive examination including diagnostic imaging as needed. During this first visit, a treatment plan will be determined and discussed with you, and your endodontist will happily answer any questions you may have at this time. Finally, your doctor will outline a solution that best fits your individual needs. Please note: All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.

If you have not completed the Patient Registration Forms via our website under Patient Info – Patient Forms, please plan to arrive at our office a few minutes early in order to complete these forms via tablets in the office.

• Tempur-Pedic dental chairs in every treatment room
• iPads and iPods to use during  your visit 
• Digital flatscreen televisions and cable TV in every treatment room
• Fresh blankets to keep you warm during your procedure 

• Your dental insurance card for us to copy
• A written referral and x-rays, if your dentist has provided them

Please do not take any over-the counter or prescription pain medication for at least 4 to 6 hours prior to your appointment to insure the most accurate diagnosis possible. Treatment is performed using local anesthesia, however other options are available in order to make you as comfortable as possible. Please speak with your doctor about any concerns you may have regarding your care. If you have a medical condition that may be a concern prior to your visit such as diabetes, high blood pressure, rheumatic fever, artificial joints or heart valves, etc., please let us know before your appointment. If you require antibiotics for any existing conditions, please contact our office prior to your visit.
