What should I expect at my first visit

Seeing a new dentist can be stressful and scary. You maybe filled with anxiety. Dr. Rice and her team however, work hard to put your mind at ease. They provide you with a comfortable, private suite in order to help reduce your anxiety. 

Another way they work to reduce your anxiety is to let you know what to expect on your first visit. After the warm and caring staff at Rice Periodontics and Implant Care welcomes you they will walk you back to your private room.  Once seated in the chair a team member will go over your medical and dental history. Medications that you are taking can impact your treatment so, make sure you provide the team with any information on current medications.

Dr. Denine Rice, will then complete an exam. This will be comprehensive in order for Dr. Rice to know exactly what your level of periodontal disease is. The pocket depths will be taken and x-rays may be utilized in order to determine the bone levels between your teeth. Once your comprehensive exam is completed, she will discuss with you treatment options, fees and your next appointment will be scheduled.  

Dr. Rice and her team specialize in building strong relationships with patients and providing a stress free zone so you don’t have to worry.
