Your First Visit

At your first visit the doctor and clinical staff perform a periodontal screening, oral cancer screening, occlusal analysis, head and neck exam, radiographic exam, blood pressure screening and tobacco counseling in addition to the standard dental examination.

Educating the patient is one of our top priorities at Atlantic Dentistry. Your oral health status is explained and illustrated in full view with digital x-rays and intraoral camera pictures, with all the options for rehabilitation discussed with you. All questions you have regarding treatment will be fully answered. Most of our patients tell us that they have never had such a thorough and modern examination!!

Your teeth may be cleaned at this visit depending on your overall oral condition.

For patients with complex rehabilitation needs, our Treatment Coordinator meets with you in her office to coordinate treatment and answer any financial questions. We have multiple financing options and our Treatment Coordinator is happy to help find an option that works with your budget.
