Checkups & examinations
A chance to look at your teeth and gums, discuss any changes you’ve noticed, and ask questions. The dentist explains what they’re checking and whether any further information is needed.
Treatments / A place to begin
You don’t need the dental vocabulary. Start with what you’d like help with, and we’ll work through the questions together.
01 / Everyday care
A chance to look at your teeth and gums, discuss any changes you’ve noticed, and ask questions. The dentist explains what they’re checking and whether any further information is needed.
A visit with the hygienist focuses on cleaning and the health of your gums. There’s time to talk about your usual brushing routine and anything you find difficult at home.
02 / Repair & replacement
A filling repairs part of a tooth affected by decay or damage. An examination helps the dentist understand the tooth before discussing whether a filling is one of your options.
A crown is a cover made to fit over a tooth. If a crown comes up in your consultation, we’ll explain why, what the visits involve, and the alternatives to consider.
You may want to understand bridges, removable dentures, or implants. The conversation starts with the gap, your remaining teeth, and what matters to you. We’ll explain which work happens here and when a referral would be needed.
03 / Your smile
Whitening is a way to change the shade of natural teeth. A consultation covers what you hope to change, suitability, limits, and costs. There is no promised shade or result.
Clear aligners are removable trays used to move teeth over time. If you’re curious about them, a consultation is a place to ask about assessment, appointments, daily wear, and whether specialist care is needed.
Before any treatment
It’s a conversation and an assessment, with time to ask what an option means for you.
We discuss your concerns, review your dental and medical history, and explain any examination or images before proceeding. You can ask about benefits, risks, alternatives, fees, and the number of visits.
These descriptions introduce our care. A recommendation for you comes only after an individual assessment. You don’t have to choose a treatment to make an inquiry.
Ask about a first visitWhen you’re ready
You don’t need to know which treatment to ask for. Tell us what’s on your mind, and we’ll talk about a first visit.
Make a new patient inquiryAn inquiry is the first step, not a confirmed appointment.
