What to Expect


First visit decorative image

We look forward to welcoming you to our office! Our goal is to make you feel as comfortable as possible. Every patient is unique, and we are committed to providing you with high quality endodontic care based on your individual needs.

Please arrive a few minutes early to allow time to complete your registration forms if you have not previously done so. Please do not take pain medication at least 6 hours prior to your visit, as it may compromise the doctor’s ability to properly diagnose your condition. Please take all other routine medications prior to your visit, if applicable.

Please bring the following items with you to your first visit.

  • Your dental insurance card
  • A written referral or x-rays, if your dentist has provided them
  • A list of your current medications

All patients under the age of 18 need to be accompanied by their parent or legal guardian.

Your visit will be a comprehensive examination and assessment of your case, including a review of information provided by your dentist. If necessary, diagnostic x-rays will be taken, so that your situation can be thoroughly evaluated and the ideal treatment plan can be determined. We will discuss your diagnosis and treatment options, and outline a solution that best fits your individual needs. Any questions you may have will be addressed at this time.

Treatment is performed using local anesthesia and other options may be available. Please speak with your doctor about any concerns you have regarding your care. If you have a medical condition that may be a concern prior to your visit such as diabetes, high blood pressure, rheumatic fever, artificial joints or heart valves, etc., please let us know before your appointment. If you require antibiotics for any existing conditions, please contact our office prior to your visit.

We consider it an honor to care for your endodontic needs and greatly appreciate the trust you place in us to do so. We will do everything we can to make your visit as comfortable as possible. Above all else, we want to make your visit to our office a pleasant experience.
