What to Expect as a New Patient

We want your first visit to feel comfortable and straightforward. Here's a simple overview of what happens when you come see us for the first time.

Warm Welcome & Paperwork

When you arrive, our friendly front desk team will greet you and help you complete any necessary forms. We keep paperwork simple and can even send forms to you ahead of time.

Comprehensive Exam

Dr. Chen or Dr. Torres will perform a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and mouth. We'll take any necessary X-rays to get a complete picture of your oral health.

We'll sit down with you to discuss our findings and any recommendations for care. There's never pressure — we simply want to help you understand your options.
