What to Expect From Your First Visit

A Comprehensive, Empathetic Consultation

Your initial consultation is a thorough discussion where our doctors - Dr. Fava, Dr. Schoenebeck, Dr. Klass, and Dr. Cutler - listen intently to all your concerns. This isn’t a hurried assessment; it’s a conversation built on empathy and trust.

Beyond your visit, your treatment plan will benefit from a number of expert viewpoints, ensuring we arrive at the optimal solution for you. Using the collective wisdom of our team allows us to deliver a truly great outcome and an exceptional experience every time.

A Dedicated Treatment Coordinator

To ensure you feel confident and fully understand your treatment journey, you will be assigned a dedicated treatment coordinator who will spend as much time as needed, hours if necessary, to review every detail of your proposed care.

Your treatment coordinator is your personal guide, ensuring you receive a clear and detailed picture of your options and potential fees on one easy-to-read page that you can take home.

Our 3-Stage Anesthesia Process

Comfort is a big contributing factor to how you feel about your dental experience, and whether or not it's a positive one. Our innovative 3-stage anesthesia process is meticulously crafted to ensure your complete comfort:

We start by gently drying the area to optimize the effectiveness of the numbing agents.

Next, we apply a powerful topical gel. This numbing agent works quickly to desensitize the area, ensuring that even your initial discomfort is minimized.

Lastly, we use a plain, unpreserved anesthetic first – a more expensive but vital choice that eliminates the common burning sensation. This is immediately followed by a long-acting anesthetic with epinephrine, ensuring profound and lasting numbness throughout your procedure.

This entire sequence is deliberate to eliminate discomfort and provide a smooth, virtually pain-free anesthetic experience.

Dedicated Post-Procedure Care

Our care doesn't stop when you walk out of our practice. We're committed to your smooth and comfortable recovery, and provide proactive support through dedicated post-procedure follow-up calls.

Our dentists will personally reach out to assess your healing, address any concerns, and ensure that any discomfort is promptly managed. We are unwavering in our commitment to your well-being.
