Thank you for choosing Val Vista Dental Group and Orthodontics for your dental needs. When you arrive for your first visit you will be asked to fill out a medical and dental history form as well as a financial policy form. For your convenience, both of these forms can be found on this website under the Patient Forms tab.
Your initial exam will last approximately one hour and a half. This visit will help us learn about your goals and desires for your dental treatment. Generally, X-rays will be taken allowing your doctor to examine the health of your gums and your teeth. Oral hygiene instructions will also be provided along with suggestions to help you care for your teeth and gums. In most cases, we will also clean your teeth on this visit and provide an evaluation that will outline your existing dental problems and proposed treatment.
We will address any symptoms present that may require dental treatment. We will diagnose, recommend treatment, and whenever possible we will recommend alternate options with the ultimate goal of keeping your teeth and gums healthy!
