YOUR FIRST VISIT

A first visit to the dental office can be a nerve-wracking experience for some people. During this time, you may feel anxious about what to expect during the appointment. The first appointment often sets the tone for following appointments. At Dentist of Paoli, we want to help you prepare for your first visit with our team.

New Patient Forms

You will need to fill out forms at every first visit with a medical professional. You can fill out our COVID pre-screen and patient registration forms directly from our website. The forms can be found under “Patient Resources.”

Initial Exam and Further Work

Our dentists will begin by asking you some questions about your dental history and any concerns you may have. They will then thoroughly examine your mouth, including your teeth, gums, and tongue. The examination may involve taking x-rays to view your teeth and jaw better. If any issues are found, the dentist will discuss treatment options with you and answer any questions you may have. They will also help you prepare for your next procedure or treatment. Following the initial exam, you can get a professional dental cleaning done by our hygienist.

Payment and Scheduling the Next Visit

At Dentist of Paoli, we accept different methods of payment to make dental care more accessible. Our staff will work with you to ensure that you can pay for your appointments in the best way.

Before you leave our office, we will also schedule your next visit. This visit may be your next routine dental exam and cleaning or another treatment our dentists have recommended to improve your oral health. When we schedule your next visit, we will review what you can expect at that appointment.

Our dentists are ready to help you get the smile you want. Call our team at Dentist of Paoli today to schedule the first of what we hope will be many visits with us. We look forward to working with you.
