We’re Eager to Help You
Living with gum disease and tooth loss is already hard enough, so we believe that getting the care you need to address them should be easy. Before you schedule your first appointment with us, be sure to read over the page below, so you know exactly what to expect. It should answer all of your basic questions, but if there is anything else you’d like to know, you are always welcome to contact us.
Your First Visit
Your first visit will primarily involve an oral examination as well as a conversation with Dr. Garcia. He’ll ask you about your dental and health history before going over what you hope to accomplish by visiting us. He’ll then take a detailed look at your mouth as well as some X-rays and intraoral scans. He’ll go over these images with you on a nearby monitor so you can see what he’s seeing. From there, he’ll discuss your treatment options and work with you to come up with a plan going forward.
