Something to hold on to.
Every patient gets a smooth mint-green worry stone to hold in the chair. Squeeze it as hard as you like. It goes home with you.
It started as a joke between our hygienists. Now it’s the first thing people ask about, and the thing they bring back to their next visit.
Build your comfort plan.
Pick what would help. We read it before you sit down, so you don’t have to ask in the chair. All of it is free except laughing gas, and that’s free for members.
Your first checkup, minute by minute.
No mystery about what happens next. This is the whole hour, and you can stop it at any point.
- 0–5 min Talk What’s bothering you, what scares you, what you want from today.
- 5–15 min X-rays Only the ones you’re due for. A few seconds each.
- 15–45 min Cleaning Hand tools first, the buzzy one only if you want it.
- 45–55 min Exam The dentist checks every tooth and shows you the photos.
- 55–60 min Plan What’s fine, what to watch, and what it would cost.
