New Patients
First Visit
On your first visit to us, we carry a comprehensive dental examination.
- We invite you to tell us about your dental concerns
- We take a thorough medical and dental history
- We examine your intra- and extra-oral soft tissue (including an oral cancer screen and a gum health assessment), your jaw joints and bite (to assess whether the way you bite is damaging your teeth) and the hard tissue (your teeth)
- If necessary, we take X-rays of your teeth and intra-oral photos to help us diagnose any problems
- We may take photographs of your mouth if this aids explanation or records
- We discuss our findings with you, explain treatment options and provide you with a quote for future treatment
