What to Expect
What to expect with your initial visit?
Thank you for trusting us and booking your initial dental consultation with us. We understand seeing and entrusting someone new to look after your oral health can be intimidating and nerve wrecking at times! We understand that change is not easy therefore we would like to run through what we do in an initial consultation and hopefully by reading this, it will help go in some way to put your mind at ease.

Initial Dental Consultation
Usually we would set aside 60mins at our initial consultation, as we personally like to get to know you as a person and to know what your aims or goals regarding your particular dental needs or wishes. We would spend some time talking and chatting before examining your mouth. We understand that some people may have very simple dental issues that can be resolved in a short amount of time, and that there are some people who have very complex dental issues that requires more time discussing and planning to find suitable solutions.

Oral Examination
After getting to know you, we would then proceed to examination where we take time checking your jaw, gums, teeth and every other single detail in your mouth to collect all the information we need. There may also be a need to take some radiographs/x-rays at this appointment so that we don’t miss anything. Photographs would be taken of your teeth at this appointment so that we can share what we are seeing with you and it would help you greatly to understand how the conditions of your teeth. As the saying goes, a picture is worth a thousand words!
