What to Expect at Your First Visit
A INTRODUCTION TO OUR PRACTICE
Your first visit to Artisan Dentalworks is about more than just cleaning your teeth; it’s about understanding your unique oral health needs and goals.
Here’s what you can expect during your initial appointment:
A Thorough Evaluation and Assessment
DETERMINING YOUR ORAL HEALTH STATUS
Periodontal Probing
We perform periodontal probing to assess your gum health, measure pocket depths, and identify signs of gum disease. While we aim to perform a professional teeth cleaning during your first visit, we may instead schedule a follow-up appointment for scaling and root planing if periodontal issues are present. This ensures we can thoroughly remove all bacteria and help you restore your gum health.
Digital X-Rays
A full-mouth series of digital X-rays, including bitewings, will provide a detailed view of your teeth, mouth, and jaw. This technology reduces radiation exposure, delivers clear images, and eliminates waiting time for results.
Cone-Beam Imaging
In most cases, we use advanced cone-beam imaging technology to capture a detailed view of your oral structures. This wider field of view allows us to assess your oral health with precision and share the results with you.
Patient-Centered Conversations
UNDERSTANDING YOUR GOALS AND CREATING A PLAN
Your first visit to Artisan Dentalworks is an opportunity to connect with our team and discuss your overall health and oral health goals. After completing your evaluation, we’ll share our findings and recommendations, empowering you to make informed decisions about your care.
We will work with you to create a custom treatment plan. Based entirely on your needs and goals, we’ll recommend a list of treatments to help you achieve optimal oral health.
To ensure your treatment plan fits your budget, we offer transparent financial consultations. Our friendly team can provide detailed estimates and information about payment options, including our membership plans, which make dental care more affordable for many of our patients without insurance.
Caring for Patients of All Ages
YOUR FAMILY’S PARTNER IN ORAL HEALTH
While we primarily focus on adult patients, we also see children for routine checkups. If our younger patients need restorative treatment, we’ll recommend trusted specialists to ensure they receive the best possible care.
Dedicated Time for Thorough Care
ALLOW 90 MINUTES FOR YOUR FIRST VISIT
We believe in taking the time to get to know you and your dental needs. That’s why initial appointments are scheduled for 60–90 minutes. This ensures we can complete a thorough assessment, answer your questions, and create a plan tailored to suit your goals.
