NEW PATIENTS
FEEL AT HOME WITH A TEAM YOU CAN TRUST
From your first visit to every smile after, we’re here to provide trusted, compassionate dental care.
We know stepping into a new office can be overwhelming and that’s why we are dedicated to making your experience easy, welcoming, and comfortable from day one.
​
OUR FAMILY IS EXCITED TO MEET YOU!
WHAT TO EXPECT AT YOUR
FIRST APPOINTMENT
We're dental patients, too, and we know choosing a dental home is an important and personal one. From the moment you walk through our doors, our team is here to make you feel comfortable and cared for.
​
During your first visit, we’ll take time to get to know you — not just your teeth, but your goals and concerns too.
​
Your appointment will typically include:
​
Health & Dental History
We’ll review your medical and dental background to understand your overall health and how it may affect your oral care.
​
Digital X-rays
To help us see what’s happening beneath the surface, we’ll take digital images to assess bone health, existing restorations, and any developing issues.
​
Comprehensive Exam
One of our doctors will perform a full exam - checking your teeth, gums, bite, and jaw, and screening for oral cancer or other concerns.
​
Gentle Cleaning
Our hygienists will thoroughly clean your teeth using our new piezo air polishers, removing plaque and tartar while polishing your smile to a healthy shine.
​
Customized Care Plan
We’ll talk through any findings, answer your questions, and create a personalized plan to keep your smile healthy and beautiful.
BEFORE YOU ARRIVE...
We want your first visit to be smooth, stress-free, and comfortable from the very start. Here’s how you can prepare before arriving at our office:
​
Fill Out New Patient Forms:
Save time at check-in by completing your new patient paperwork ahead of time. When you call to set up your appointment, we will send you a link to fill-out your forms from home before you come.
​
Bring Your Insurance Information:
While we are not contracted or “in-network” with any specific dental insurance plans, if you have dental insurance, please bring your card or policy details so our team can help you file any applicable claims.
*DON'T FORGET* to send us a photo of the front & back of your insurance card. You can text it to 325.949.8535 or email it to lewrightdental@yahoo.com.
​
List of Medications or Medical Conditions:
Let us know about any medications you take or health conditions that might impact your dental care. This helps us provide the safest, most effective treatment possible.
​
Questions or Concerns? Write Them Down:
Whether you’re nervous about treatment or just want to understand your options, jot down any questions you’d like to ask our team. We’re happy to talk through anything.​
