What to expect on your first visit
Concept Dentistry is pleased to be able to offer dental services to every age group and every member of your family. Prevention and education are important in our practice, and we take seriously your need to understand how to take charge of and protect your own oral health from your very first visit.
All aspects of our new patient visit can be customized if you have a specific concern or issue that you would like the doctor or hygienist to focus on. Please be sure to let us know at the beginning of your appointment so we can appropriately prioritize our examination. We look forward to meeting you!
Your first visit will involve three parts:
Comprehensive Dental Examination
During your comprehensive exam, your dentist will perform an oral cancer screening along with an in-depth evaluation of your past dental care and your current dental needs so together you can create a custom care plan specific to your dental goals.
Radiographic Dental Examination
X-rays will be taken to help us look for cavities and other oral health problems that cannot be seen during the clinical exam.
Routine Dental Cleaning (Prophylaxis)
This part of your appointment allows your hygienist to monitor your oral health and based on the dental records we collect, we will decide which type of cleaning will be best suited to promote healthy gums and teeth in your mouth. At the end of your appointment, we will develop a personalized prevention plan to maintain your oral hygiene at home between visits.
Frequently asked questions
Concept Dentistry agrees with the American Dental Association's and American Academy of Pediatric Dentists' recommendation that a child's first dental visit should be within 6 months of their first tooth coming in or no later than their first birthday. An early start can help your child have a healthy smile for life!
If you are nervous, anxious or just concerned about your dental appointment, we have several options for you. We provide nitrous oxide ("laughing gas") or our experienced anesthetists deliver IV (intravenous) sedation to put you at ease during your visit.
Concept Dentistry offers several cosmetic orthodontic options including clear aligners from ClearCorrect along with ceramic and clear brackets if traditional brackets and wires are needed to straighten your smile. A consultation visit will allow us to evaluate your teeth and discuss the most effective cosmetic braces solution for you.
Concept Dentistry uses KöR Whitening Deep Bleaching System to transform teeth that are stained, discolored, or dull into a permanently bright smile.
KöR Whitening is ranked as the most effective, reliable way to whiten your teeth permanently by respected dental journals. It utilizes a combination of in-office and at-home treatments to allow us to achieve the most stunning results!

It is important to see your dentist for an evaluation of your oral and dental health as soon as you find out you are pregnant to determine if any dental care is necessary. Studies have shown that dental treatment while pregnant is not linked to pregnancy complications. If necessary, dental treatment will be planned for your second trimester into the beginning of your third trimester when it is most comfortable for you to be in the dental chair. Periodontal (gum) disease has been linked to preterm delivery and low birth weight babies, so it is important to maintain healthy gums at home with brushing and flossing, and maintaining regular visits with your doctor.
We are committed to the prevention of oral cancer through the early identification of pre-cancerous conditions, and provide oral cancer screenings at each preventive care appointment. We will check for spots, cuts, swellings, growths or other abnormal areas.
The American Dental Association (ADA) and dentists at Concept Dentistry recommend that children and adults use fluoride toothpaste. As long as it has fluoride in it – and you’re using it twice a day – pick your favorite! You and your dentist are partners in your dental care. Do your part by brushing twice a day and flossing daily! Then let us do our part when we see you every six months!
