First Visit Consultation

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

• Your surgical referral slip and any x-rays if applicable.
• A list of medications you are presently taking
• If you have dental insurance please bring the details of your plan. This will allow us to help you process your claims

Important: All patients under the age of 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit.

A preoperative consultation and physical examination are mandatory for patients undergoing IV anesthesia for surgery. Please have nothing to eat or drink eight hours prior to your IV anesthesia. You will also need an adult to remain at the office and drive you home.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medication (i.e., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.).

X-Rays

If your dentist or physician has taken x-rays, you may request that they forward them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional films are necessary, they can be taken at our office.

• Dental Implants

  Did you know that dental implants are designed to act as a replacement for your natural tooth or teeth? They are frequently the ideal and best treatment option to replacing missing teeth. More and more now people are getting dental implants.  They are a long term solution that is inserted and anchored in your jawbone, just like your natural teeth.

• Wisdom Teeth

  It is strongly recommended that third molars or wisdom teeth be evaluated by an oral and maxillofacial surgeon by the time the patient is a young adult. Your surgeon can assess the presence and position of the wisdom teeth, disease status and discuss management options ranging from removal to monitoring the teeth.

• Oral Pathology

  Our oral and maxillofacial surgeons are well trained in the diagnosis and treatment of oral pathology, and are able to perform the complex bone grafting surgeries and soft tissue augmentation to reconstruct defects so that you may receive implants or dentures in the future.

• Impacted Canines

  An oral surgeon may need to remove extra teeth or growths that are impeding the eruption of adult teeth. Your surgeon will then evaluate the gum tissue around the tooth to make sure it is sufficiently strong and healthy to last for a lifetime.
