What to Expect During Your First Visit
A walk-through of your new-patient appointment, from arrival to treatment plan.
Your first visit usually takes about an hour. We'll start with a relaxed conversation — what brought you in, your dental history, and what you'd like to be different about your smile.
Next: a comprehensive exam including digital X-rays and an oral cancer screening. If appropriate, we'll complete a professional cleaning the same day.
Finally, Dr. Morgan reviews findings with you in plain language and provides a written treatment plan with clear pricing. There's no pressure — you'll leave with information, not a sales pitch.
Bring your insurance card, a list of any medications, and a few minutes to fill out new-patient forms (or complete them online in advance).
