We are glad that you chose us and cannot wait to meet you!

What to expect during your first New Patient Appointment

At David Wickness DMD, we want to make your dental visit as fast and efficient as possible. We know that your time is valuable and we strive to accommodate you at all times. Here are a few helpful tips to help streamline your visit with us!

Step 1: Complete New Patient Forms

Complete our patient forms on-line or print them, complete them and bring them with you to your appointment. This will expedite things upon arrival.

Step 2: Bring Any Insurance Information

Please bring any pertinent information regarding your dental insurance with you to your dental appointment. We will gladly file any dental insurance claims on your behalf as a courtesy to you.

Step 3: Arrive at least 15 Minutes Before Your Appointment

Arriving early for your dental appointment helps us to address any issues with your dental insurance and/or medical history prior to your appointment time with the dentist or hygienist.

Step 4: Prepare Any Questions in Advance

Bring a list of questions or concerns you may have for the dentist or dental hygienist. This will help create a more thorough consultation, prevent any missing information and help us address your concerns properly.

Step 5: Relax, Your Are in Good Hands…

You will be brought back for your low radiation, digital x-rays. The dentist will meet with you and discuss your overall dental health goals, your current oral health and an affordable and viable treatment plan to get you where you want to be.

After this assessment and exam, if you are in for a cleaning one of our friendly hygienists will perform your healthy mouth cleaning.

If additional treatment is required, you will be presented with a treatment plan and an estimate. We’ll schedule your next appointment for preventive care or for a respective procedure from your treatment plan.
