What happens next
A request is not a booked appointment yet. Someone from the office calls you back to go over what you need and find a day and time that works, and the appointment is confirmed on that call.
The preferred day and time you give are a starting point rather than a booking. If you are a new patient, the call is also a chance to ask what to bring and how long to allow. New patient paperwork is on the new patient forms page.
Keep medical details out of the form: it is delivered by email. Medical history and medications are better covered on the phone or at the visit.
What a first visit usually involves
Most first appointments follow the same shape: X-rays, an examination of the teeth, gums and soft tissue, and a cleaning where the gums allow one. Then a conversation about anything found, what it means, and what the options are.
Nothing is decided in the chair. You leave knowing what was found and what it would cost to deal with, and you decide from there. How payment works is covered under financial options, and routine care is described on the cleanings and exams page.
If it has been years since your last visit, that is common. It may mean a longer cleaning, or more than one, but the process is the same.
If it cannot wait
A form is not the route for a dental emergency. Severe or worsening toothache, facial swelling, a knocked-out tooth or a broken tooth with pain should be a phone call. See emergency dentistry for what to do first.
Swelling that spreads toward the eye or under the jaw, or any difficulty breathing or swallowing, is a medical emergency: call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Frequently Asked Questions
What happens after I send the form?
Someone from the office calls you to go over what you need and agree a day and time. The appointment is confirmed on that call, not when the form is sent.
Can I use this form for a dental emergency?
No. For severe pain, swelling, a knocked-out tooth or a broken tooth, call the office instead. Swelling that spreads toward the eye or under the jaw, or difficulty breathing or swallowing, is a medical emergency: call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room.
Is the day and time I choose guaranteed?
No. It is a preference that helps the office find a slot that suits you. The actual day and time are agreed when the office calls you back.
Do I need to fill in the insurance field?
No, it is optional. If you have dental insurance, adding the name of your carrier means it can be discussed when the office calls. Payment and insurance are covered on the financial options page.
What should I bring to my first appointment?
Usually photo identification, your dental insurance card if you have one, and a list of any medications you take. The office can confirm anything else when it calls.
Should I include medical details in the form?
Keep it brief. The form is delivered by email, so medical history and medications are better discussed by phone or at your visit.
I have not been to a dentist in years. Should I still book?
Yes. It is common, and it is not a problem. A first visit after a long gap may take longer, or need more than one cleaning, but the process is the same.
