INFORMATION ABOUT OFFICE VISITS

Find the answers to commonly asked questions about visiting our dental offices below:

What can I expect at my first visit?

Your first visit is all about assessing your oral health and dental needs so we can create a personalized treatment plan. We’ll first take any necessary X-rays and perform a dental exam. Based on this initial examination and your goals for your health and smile, we’ll provide you with recommendations for future treatments. Many times, we will also perform a teeth cleaning during your first appointment.

Will I be able to get major dental work done immediately?

If you have an urgent dental condition, we make it a priority to diagnose and treat the issue before it negatively affects your oral health even more. Afterwards, we’ll focus on routine and preventive care to give you a solid foundation for oral hygiene. We can also provide effective restorative procedures as needed to help ensure a lifetime of healthy smiles.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST VISIT

WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR FIRST VISIT
During your first appointment at West Lakes Dentistry, we will collect information needed to complete a comprehensive evaluation of your current oral health. This will often include digital radiographs, intraoral photos and documentation of your existing condition. Your dentist will then develop a personalized treatment plan to address your specific needs and goals. Our goal is to identify any potential risks you have for future problems and make recommendations to help lower those risks over time. Our focus is always on preventative, therapeutic and conservative treatment recommendations.

Based on the evaluation of your dentist, we will also provide a standard cleaning, which includes removing any plaque and tartar in addition to polishing your teeth. If you have been diagnosed with a serious oral condition requiring urgent care, we will do everything we can to treat you right away. Keeping you healthy is our main priority!
