First Visit

Dr. Claudia and her team are dedicated to great dental experiences.

 

We, along with the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, recommend you bring your child in by his or her first birthday.

 

During your first visit, you will meet some of our dedicated pediatric dental team and discuss your concerns for your child before entering the treatment room. Families will accompany one of our specialized hygienists to pick out a toothbrush and review tips for keeping their teeth healthy. We will walk you and your child through the steps of their first preventive care visit, or cleaning. Then, Dr. Claudia will join you at the end for a thorough exam to assess for decay and abnormalities, complete an oral cancer screening and orthodontic assessment. We will complete your visit by discussing any remaining questions you may have.

 

On your first visit to our office, please bring your insurance card. We will email you a link to fill out our online new patient packet.

 

Your initial exam will last approximately 30 minutes. Oral hygiene instructions will also be given with suggestions to help your child care for their own teeth. In most cases, we will also clean their teeth on this visit, and provide an evaluation that will outline any existing dental problems and proposed treatment.
