What to expect at your first visit

Our modern facility was designed with your comfort in mind. Here's what your first appointment looks like.

Our Courtice practice was purpose-built in 2021 with patient comfort in mind. From the moment you walk in, you'll notice the difference a modern facility makes.

Before your appointment

We'll reach out to confirm your appointment and ask how you prefer to be contacted—phone, email, or text. If you'd like to save time, you can fill out our Patient Intake Form online beforehand.

When you arrive

Our front desk team will greet you and review your medical history. Certain medications and health conditions can affect your oral health, so this helps us provide the best care.

Your appointment

Our facility is equipped with advanced diagnostic technology, including digital x-rays that emit up to 70% less radiation than traditional equipment. Our intraoral cameras let you see exactly what we see, so you're fully informed when making decisions about your care.

If this is your first hygiene appointment, expect it to take a bit longer than usual. Our hygienists spend extra time getting to know your teeth and gums, which helps them track changes over time and provide personalized care.

Feel free to ask for a tour of the office. We have Apple TV and Netflix in our treatment rooms, and one even has a massage chair. Many patients find that seeing the space helps ease any anxiety.

After your appointment

We'll walk you through any findings and discuss next steps. If you have dental benefits, we can submit claims on your behalf. You'll leave with all your questions answered and a clear understanding of your treatment options.
