Right from the start, we encourage you to take an active role in our diagnostic process by discussing your dental concerns and objectives with us. Your initial visit will include:

An extensive review of your medical history to determine its relation to your dental needs
A comprehensive examination of:
- Your oral hard and soft tissues (including an oral cancer exam)
- Your jaw joint (TMJ) and related muscles
- Your occlusal (bite) function and its stability
- Your periodontal (gum) health
- Your teeth - for decay, cracks, wear, etc.
A cosmetic evaluation - i.e., ways to improve your smile
Any necessary diagnostic x-rays
Use of a magnifying intra-oral camera (to help you see what we see)
A careful assessment of all diagnostic data to determine your total dental needs

Our entire team is devoted to making each and every one of your visits to our office as pleasant as possible. That's why we offer numerous options to help maximize your comfort and minimize anxiety. During your procedure, we can provide you with wireless headphones to wrap you in soothing music. Or you may wish to relax and enjoy one of your favorite DVDs or television programs.

One of our team will be happy to supply you with a comfortable pillow or blanket. We are also pleased to offer relaxation dentistry, a safe and effective way to minimize anxiety and discomfort - some patients even sleep through their procedures. We are ready to respond to each patient's individual needs to ensure complete peace of mind.

We believe everyone deserves the finest comprehensive dental care available. That is why we strive to make life as easy as possible for our patients.
