We're excited that you've chosen us to care for your smile. We will never judge you. Instead, we'll address any oral health problems, explain your treatment options, and create a plan of action to address your unique needs.

We're happy to welcome you to our practice. We'll start by taking a complete medical and dental history and will ask you about any current concerns. Our team will take full-mouth x-rays to identify any dental problems and to create a baseline for future dental visits. We will evaluate the health of your teeth and existing dental work to ensure they are free of damage and assess the health of your gums. We'll also perform a head and neck exam, including an evaluation of your salivary glands and lymph nodes, and will conduct an oral cancer screening to rule out potential abnormalities.

You will likely receive care from our dental hygienist, who will remove plaque and tartar buildup from your tooth surfaces and along your gum line. We’ll also polish your teeth and floss between them to remove any remaining plaque and debris. We may recommend a fluoride treatment to lower your risk of future tooth decay.

At the conclusion of your appointment, we will discuss any current needs and preventive measures required to keep your smile in tip-top shape. We will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan for long-term oral health.

You're welcome to call our office at 817-345-6223 to schedule your appointment or request one online, and we'll contact you to confirm your selection.

Absolutely. Please let us know ahead of time if there are any special arrangements you or a loved one requires. We're happy to accommodate you in any way we can.

We understand that many of our patients are fearful of the dentist. Our gentle techniques, sedation dentistry options (IV sedation or Nitrous Oxide gas), and personalized care will help ensure you are comfortable and anxiety-free during treatment.
