Visiting a new dentist can feel a bit overwhelming, but with a little preparation, you can make it a smooth and stress-free experience! Here are some tips to help you get ready:
1. Gather Your Records: If you’re switching from another dentist, request your dental records to be sent over or bring a copy with you. This helps the new office understand your dental history. ** Any recent X-rays can be emailed prior to your appointment**
2. List Any Concerns: Make a list of questions or concerns you have about your oral health. This ensures you won’t forget to mention them during your visit.
3. Insurance and Payment Info: Bring your insurance card and be aware of your coverage details.
4. Arrive Early: Plan to arrive at least 10-15 minutes early to fill out any necessary paperwork without feeling rushed.
5. Relax and Communicate: Let your dental team know if you’re feeling anxious. They’re there to help you feel comfortable and answer any questions!
A little prep goes a long way in making your dental visit a breeze!
