You and your dentist are partners in maintaining your oral health. Dental care is a very personalized service that requires a good relationship between you and your dentist. It is important that you inform us of any concerns you may have about your mouth including any pain, sensitivity, wants such as whiter teeth, less space between teeth, longer teeth, etc. At your first dental appointment we start by completing a full comprehensive examination. We then take the appropriate x-rays, and depending upon the condition of your teeth and gums, we will finish by cleaning and polishing your teeth.
