At your first visit to the dentist, our front office staff will have you fill out the necessary forms if you have not done so already. Please bring a form of ID, your dental insurance card if you have dental insurance, a list of any medical conditions you may have and a list of medications you are taking. You will be greeted by our lovely dental hygienist or assistant who will take necessary digital radiographs and some intraoral photographs. We will review your medical and dental history and discuss any concerns you have about your teeth or smile. A thorough head and neck exam, extraoral and intraoral exam including an oral cancer screening, and periodontal (gum) measurements (probings) will be performed. Dr. Lapiad will review all the information that was collected and perform a thorough dental and periodontal (gum) evaluation. She will then take some intraoral photographs of your teeth and gums that you will be able to see on the treatment room TV monitors. This way both you and Dr. Lapiad can both discuss and decide what is the best dental treatment is for your needs. If time allows, we will perform routine professional periodontal therapy tailored to your specific dental health. Once completed, we will discuss the recommended treatment plan with you.

All instruments and handpieces are wrapped prior to sterilization and prepared individually for each patient.
