When appropriate, the visit includes necessary X-rays, a cleaning and a complete exam.

Schedule your next visit

Before you leave, remember to schedule your next appointment—especially when it is time for your six-month recall.

Helpful note

Tell us what helps.

If a patient has sensory preferences, anxiety, special health needs or a favorite way to communicate, let the team know before the visit.

Patient forms

Complete forms before your visit.

We can email first-visit forms so you can complete them at home and bring them to the appointment. Downloadable forms will be added here as soon as the office provides the files.

Request forms by email
