Your First Visit

We empower you to make smart choices for your oral health and smile enhancements by providing a thorough consultation, easy and accommodating financing, and comfortable facilities and care. We also make sure that we are well informed about your medical history, current medications, and any other factor that might affect your dental health and treatment. We know dental care isn't just about treatment — it's about the way you're treated.
 

We truly believe that the most successful doctor-patient relationships are also friendships. When you visit us for dental care, we take the time to get to know you and earn your trust through exceptional service, open communication, and professional expertise.
 

We also believe that your dental care should revolve around your unique needs, so we make it a priority to keep you informed about your oral health and confident in the decisions you’ve made to achieve and maintain your healthy smile.

New Patient Forms 
 

We are always welcoming new patients to our Arlington dental practice. We look forward to your visit! Before you come, please download our new patient forms, print them out, and bring the completed forms to our office to expedite the paperwork at your first visit for your convenience. If you would prefer to fill out your new patient paperwork at our office, please arrive 10-15 minutes before your scheduled appointment so there will be sufficient time.

​

For those who are joining our family of patients, it might seem out of the ordinary to be scheduled for a 90-minute new patient visit with one of our dentists and a hygienist. This time is reserved especially for you to ensure that you receive a thorough examination and consultation. Our goal is not only to take care of our patients' dental needs, but also to get to know each person by name and treat them like we would want our own family to be treated.

Scheduling
 

We know that fitting quality dental care into your busy life isn't easy. We offer convenient hours, including evening and Friday dental appointments, and we strive to run on time as we understand how valuable your time is. Our doctors only deviate from our schedule in the event of dental emergencies that need to be taken care of immediately. In return, we ask patients to arrive on time — if we all work together, things run more smoothly and we can maximize patient convenience.
 

Once we have decided on a treatment plan and have worked out financial arrangements, we will do everything we can to proceed with your dental treatment on a schedule that works for you, whether that be immediate treatment or at a slower pace.
 

Missed Appointment and Cancellations
 

Please call at least two business days in advance for changed appointments. Missed appointments without this notification, or repeated cancellations, will incur cancellation fees. Contact us with any questions or to schedule your appointment. We look forward to seeing you soon!
