New Patients
New Patient Registration
We are pleased to provide Comprehensive Care as well as to provide Emergency Dental Care.
Many of our “new” patients come to us with a specific emergency which we are happy to take care of. These patients have a comprehensive oral examination with needed radiographs and we share our findings on what is causing their problems and the treatment options that are available and discuss what we recommend.
If you are seeking Comprehensive Dental Care or Specific Dental Treatment (such as Implants, Same-Day Crowns, Laser Dentistry, Invisalign or Six-Month Smiles, etc.) your visit begins with a comprehensive oral evaluation which includes review of your Medical History, a Head and Neck and Oral Cancer Screening, evaluation of your Dental and Periodontal health and review of Dental Problems such as missing teeth, broken fillings, recurrent decay, etc. The doctor will develop a comprehensive treatment plan to help you achieve the healthy smile you have always wanted. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have about your treatment options when you come into the practice.
If you have dental insurance, please let a staff member know during your phone call with us, so we can do a Complimentary Free Insurance Benefit inquiry on your behalf with the insurance company. With that information we will have an idea of what your insurance covers and what out-of-pocket expenses you can expect. You are, of course, responsible for the total dental bill, but we work closely with our patients to help you coordinate the insurance process.

Dental Insurance and Financing
We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover credit cards as well as most Bank Debit (ATM) cards.
We are pleased to offer CareCredit (by GE Capital) Finance Programs to our patients. This program offers a convenient, no initial payment, low monthly payment plan for dental treatments of $1,000 to $25,000. (Ask about the no-interest-same-as-cash options — For treatment under $1000 there’s a no interest for 90 days. There’s no interest for one year if treatment is over $1000.) Offering these Finance Programs allows us to make the smile you’ve always wanted affordable.
If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.
When you come in for your initial visit please be sure to bring your dental insurance card and arrive early to fill out or sign your initial paperwork if you have not already done so. If you are on any medications, please bring a list of them with you to the office. If you need antibiotics prior to dental work please take them as prescribed. If you are not sure if you need antibiotics please contact your doctor prior to your visit.
If you have a special occasion coming up or just want to brighten your smile, whitening may be a great option to consider. Whether you just need a cleaning, a filling or a brand new smile, we are here to help. Great dental care doesn’t just make for a fantastic smile, it also helps promote overall health and wellness. We want you to have the confidence to share your smile with the world!
