Your initial visit to Stephens Dentistry is crucial, as it sets the tone for our relationship. We'll gather important background information like your medical history and give you an opportunity to meet your dentist. This visit is about understanding your needs and ensuring you're comfortable with our practice. It's designed to be informative and practical, paving the way for your journey toward optimal dental health with us.

To maximize your visit to Stephens Dentistry, preparation is key. This helps us provide the best care for you and reduces any potential stress. As a fully digital practice, you'll complete your registration through a secure portal. This information is directly linked to your record for the dentist's review. Arrive 10 minutes ahead of your appointment to allow time for this.

Remember to bring a photo ID and dental insurance details to your first appointment. Inform us about any changes in your insurance.

Your initial visit includes meeting the doctor and hygienist. We'll take a complete set of x-rays for an accurate dental record. If you've recently had x-rays at another practice, you can email them to office@stephensdentistry.com or mail hard copies to our office.

Your first appointment includes a comprehensive exam and a routine cleaning. The dentist will address any concerns you might have, and the hygienist will review your oral hygiene routine. We recommend a fluoride treatment and oral cancer screening, which your hygienist will discuss with you.

At Stephens Dentistry, we value your time and ours. If you need to cancel or rearrange your appointment, we require a notice of 48 hours. This allows us to offer the slot to another patient. Please note, a fee might be levied for missed appointments or last-minute rescheduling without adequate notice.
