My First Visit

Our office, as well as the The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Dental Association, and the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry all recommend establishing a Dental Home for your child by their first birthday. Children with a dental home are more likely to receive proper preventive care, and routine oral health treatment.

You can make the first visit to the dentist enjoyable and positive. Inform your child of the visit and tell them that the dentist and their staff will explain all procedures and answer any questions. The less to-do concerning the visit, the better.

The Dental Home is intended to provide a place for dental care other than the Emergency Room.

It is best if you refrain from using words around your child that might cause unnecessary fear, such as "needle", "shot", "pull", "drill" or "hurt". We make a practice of using words that convey the same message without frightening children.

Schedule Your Visit With Us!

Ready to start your journey to a new smile? We can't wait to see you!

We invite you to accompany your child to the initial examination. During future appointments, we suggest you allow your child to accompany our staff through the dental experience while you wait in the reception area. Our purpose is to gain your child's confidence and overcome apprehension, and we can usually establish a closer relationship with your child when you are not present. However, you are more than welcome to accompany your child to the treatment room. For the safety and privacy of all patients, other children who are not being treated should remain in the reception area with a supervising adult.

What is your cancellation policy?

We require a 48 notice for cancellations or rescheduling to avoid a cancellation or broken appointment fee. We do not “overbook” appointments so our doctors reserve time just for you.

If I am in pain, how soon can you see me?

If you are experiencing pain, we make every effort to see you the same day. Please call our office and describe what you are feeling. In most cases, the problem can be corrected or stabilized the same day.

Do you have lunchtime appointments?

Yes, both our hygienists and dentists see patients through the normal lunch hour. If you need a lunchtime appointment, please contact us.

Do you treat children?

Our office is designed to provide your child with the very best dentistry available, and deliver that care in a safe, warm, and fun environment. We love kids as much as we love dentistry!

What are you payment policies?

Co-payments (the uninsured portion of your bill) are due at the time of treatment. We offer financing and payment plans to help you. 50% of the deposit of lab work on crowns is due at the time dental impressions are made.

How can I make a payment?

Our office accepts Visa, MasterCard, Discover, personal checks, and cash. Our front office staff can verify insurance benefits, provide options and estimates for potential treatment.

What are our hours?

Tuesday 10:00 am - 7:00 pm

Do you have an environmentally green office?

Yes. We do not store any chemical toners or fixers typically associated with conventional radiography systems. Our water is highly filtered as it enters our office. Even the air in our office is specially filtered to removed dust and allergens. Medical waste is properly disposed of by a third party in compliance with OSHA standards.

What are your Privacy Policies?

We keep patient information strictly confidential, and we fully comply with HIPAA guidelines. For your convenience, we keep a printed copy of our privacy policies in our patient waiting room.
