First Visit
Thank you for choosing our office for all your dental needs. We have created a comfortable environment where you can feel confident in the level of dental care you receive.
Your initial comprehensive exam will last approximately one hour. This visit will help us get acquainted with each other and learn about your goals and desires for your dental treatment. Generally, X-rays may be taken allowing Dr. Rogers to examine the jaws’ structure, teeth position and teeth decay. We will evaluate your oral condition by doing the following:
- An oral cancer screening
- Temporomandibular joint examination
- Caries (decay) exam
- Periodontal (gum) exam
- Occlusal (bite) exam
- Digital photographic exam
We will note existing dental restorations and problems then propose any treatment recommendations.
We believe that good dental care begins with open communication. We promise to speak candidly with you about any symptoms present that may require further dental treatment, our diagnosis, alternative treatments that may exist and our recommendations. Working together, we can achieve a true partnership, with one common goal – keeping your smile beautiful and your teeth, gums and jaw joints healthy!
