New Patient Information

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Your first visit to our practice will include an extended visit with Dr. Patel. A thorough examination, including an oral cancer screening and a check of existing restorations, gums and supporting structures will be performed. This will be further supplemented by a complete set of x-rays to ensure the best care can be provided. Your first visit also allows you to convey your personal dental goals and priorities. Thus Dr. Patel will be able to inform you of the status of your oral health and develop a plan of action with you that is both desirable and achievable.
