We recognize that most patients appreciate being well informed on what to expect at their first visit with us. Below is an overview of what your first visit to Bracebridge Dental Care will look like.

Your first visit isn’t just about us getting to know you, but an opportunity for you to learn more about our practice! We encourage our new patients to ask any questions they may have about their practice during their visit. 

Our team will start your appointment by asking you some questions about your medical and dental history. Certain medical conditions or medications can affect your treatment plan, so we will also ask you to list any medications, vitamins, and supplements you are taking and their dosages.

Your dentist will then perform a comprehensive oral exam. This may include x-rays, a non-invasive oral cancer screening, and a periodontal exam to check for signs of gum disease. Once your exam is finished, your dentist will discuss their findings with you. Together, you will create a treatment plan to help you maintain a healthy, functional smile. 

If you haven’t seen a dentist in a while, there is no need to worry. You have made an excellent decision by scheduling an appointment with us. We want to help you get your oral health back on track!

We want to help you receive the dental care you deserve. We discuss all cost and payment options with you to make sure you are comfortable with your treatment plan and to answer any questions you have prior to the start treatment. You will never have surprises when it comes to your bill. Patient are expected to pay for services at the time of treatment, but our staff will happily submit dental claims to your insurance company on your behalf.

At Bracebridge Dental Care, we want you to feel relaxed during your appointments. Please let us know if there's anything we can do to make your visit more comfortable!
