Complete quality dental care
for you and your family.
All ages are welcome.
To Schedule an Appointment
If you would like to schedule an appointment for you or a
family member, please give us a call.
Your First Visit
We believe in preventive dentistry tailored to meet the
needs of the individual. Your first evaluation as a new patient will
give us a complete picture of your present oral health.
- First we will ask for a brief dental and medical history.
- We will check your blood pressure and pulse.
- Your examination will include evaluations of past,
existing, and potential problems.
- We will examine your oral tissues for gum/bone disease
and your teeth for decay.
- Necessary x-rays are used to identify hidden problems.
The doctor will review this information with you.
Together, we will discuss whatever treatment may be desirable and the options
available.
Although Gentle Dental Care is a "paperless
office" there are those inevitable forms that must be completed for
your first visit. If you desire, you may print out and complete the
following forms prior to your appointment. If you cannot or do not
desire to do so, the forms will be available to you when you arrive at our
office. Keep in mind it takes approximately 20 minutes to fill out the
paperwork and enter it into the computer before you are seen by the dental auxiliary.

Your Childs First Visit
Our primary goal is to make your child's first visit

a pleasant and comfortable. If this is your child's first
visit, the hygienist will introduce him or her to the equipment used and do as
much of a cleaning and examination as your child is comfortable with.

As a service to all of our patients, we will promptly handle
the filing of insurance claim forms for the services we provide.
We only ask for payment of your estimated percentage on the day the

the more you understand about your dental insurance coverage the better you will be able
to maximize the benefit you receive.
If you need additional information, please ask the front desk personnel
who will be happy to assist you.
Dental Restorative Materials
There are a number of restorative materials which may be used to repair
damaged or diseased teeth. Each material has its specific strengths and
weaknesses. Additionally, each material has its own risks and benefits.
The following two documents provide an overview of these materials. Please
