Your first visit
Your first appointment is vital to establishing a relationship of trust and comfort with our office. After meeting our friendly staff and turning in or filling out the necessary forms, you will have the opportunity to speak with Dr. West about any questions, concerns, or treatment desires that you have. He will then perform a comprehensive exam including digital x-rays, an oral cancer screening, and a full periodontal assessment to check for any signs of tooth decay or gum disease. If you have any treatment needs, Dr. West will then discuss his findings and review a detailed treatment plan with you. If you would like, there is also often time at the end of the visit to clean your teeth or address a specific issue that is bothering you.
