New Patient Information

Exceptional Care From The Moment You Arrive

We Are Accepting New Patients

We want to thank you for visiting the Speltz, Wernimont, & Carrothers Family Dentistry website! Our goal is for your first visit to be one of comfort and acknowledgment of your personal dental needs.

We will take the required time to properly diagnose your immediate dental concerns, review your past medical and dental history, and create a treatment plan that provides for your optimal dental health. With your cooperation, we will complete a thorough comprehensive dental evaluation.

We understand that budget considerations play a role in your dental care decisions. We offer various financing options, which provides flexible, deferred-interest financing.

 

Your First Visit

Your initial appointment usually will consist of an examination and review of your treatment options. Usually, treatment can be done or started the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

  • Any x-rays taken by a previous dentist, if applicable.
  • A list of medications you are presently taking.
  • If you have dental insurance, bring the necessary completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to treatment (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medication (i.e., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.).

X-Rays

If your dentist or physician has taken x-rays, you may request that they forward them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional x-rays are necessary, they can be taken at our facility.

Your new patient appointment includes a thorough dental evaluation that begins with full mouth X-rays. You will also receive a comprehensive exam and an oral cancer screening. A professional cleaning may be completed during this visit.
