After your forms have been completed, we will take you into one of our treatment rooms, where Daniel will have a discussion with you about your:

  • Previous dental experience
  • Questions and concerns
  • Comfort level
  • Medical history
  • Special requirements

We will thoroughly examine all of your teeth as well as record a series of diagnostic dental x-rays and photographs. These images allow us to pinpoint any underlying problems that may not be visible clinically. You should reserve approximately 45 to 60 minutes for your new patient appointment.

Should You Require Treatment

Our team is committed to providing same-day services in the instances of urgent or emergency dental treatment at the time of your new patient appointment. Should any other services be needed, we will create a customised care plan and schedule you accordingly. You will be provided with a breakdown of all care options and costs to assist you in planning any necessary treatment.
