Office Visits

First Office Visit

Our practice is committed to providing you and your family with safe, gentle, high-quality dental care. We understand that your child may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. We are sensitive to children’s needs, and it is our goal to make your child feel comfortable visiting our practice while providing the best care possible.

Your First Visit Is All About Your Child — His or Her Comfort, Happiness, and Health

During the first visit, we will take X-rays, perform a cleaning and polishing, and Dr. Scoma will conduct an exam. He will review the X-rays and discuss any findings, including cavities, early signs of decay, or gingivitis.

Regular Checkups Are an Important Part of Maintaining a Healthy Smile

The American Dental Association recommends that children visit the dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings to keep their teeth and gums healthy.

We understand that your family has a busy schedule, so when you’re preparing for a dental visit, please remember that an appointment can last from 20 to 40 minutes.
