What to expect
You will get a careful oral examination by your dentist, who will check for things like tooth decay, gum disease and other things that can affect not just your mouth, but your overall health. Then you’ll talk together about any treatments you might benefit from.
You may get a teeth cleaning on this visit, or it may be scheduled for a follow-up visit. From start to finish, this first visit will most likely last 1-1 1/2 hours so we can make sure we’ve given your smile the attention it needs.
