We are committed to providing for each patient an initial appointment during which an exchange of patient concerns and dental desires can be addressed. We respect our patients' time. We do not double book. Unless an unexpected dental emergency arises, we make sure that patients are seen at their scheduled appointment time. We want each patient to feel comfortable, with adequate appointment time to address his or her dental concerns. Please allow adequate travel time to our office.

Once you have explained your dental concerns and a thorough dental examination and necessary radiographs have been completed, a treatment plan will be developed. Written and videotaped explanations of most procedures and problems are available and will be offered to you. Advantages and disadvantages of treatment will be presented. Any questions you have will be answered before treatment begins.

As part of your first visit with us, you will also fill out a comprehensive medical and dental history. These forms are important because they help us to determine the course of your treatment. We have to know about allergies, sensitivity to anesthetics, long-term medications, etc.

For your convenience we've included these forms here on our site. Click on the links to the left and print out these forms at home, where you can fill them out at your leisure and bring them with you to your first visit.

We look forward to meeting you and helping you reach your dental health goals.
