When you come to visit our office for your first time, our gentle and compassionate staff guide you through your initial appointment.

Medical Conditions
Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you’re on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.) or require medication prior to dental treatment (i.e antibiotics, for pre-med.)
Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to root canal treatment.
X-Rays
Your dentist may provide you with one or more X-rays which you should bring to your initial consultation. Although these X-rays are helpful in diagnosing your treatment, one or more digital X-rays will be taken at your consultation appointment to provide a precise view of the tooth. These X-rays are also utilized during the treatment. Rest assured that any X-rays taken at our office are critical to your treatment. And there’s no need to worry about radiation. Digital x-rays are designed to minimize your exposure to radiation.
