What to Expect During Your First Dental Visit

Welcome to Fordham Plaza Dental Associates-Citident

Your initial appointment usually will consist of an examination and review of your treatment options. Usually, treatment can be done or started the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.

Prior to your first appointment at Fordham Plaza Dental Associates-Citident

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

  • Any x-rays taken by a previous dentist, if applicable.
  • A list of medications you are presently taking.
  • If you have dental insurance, bring the necessary ID cards and completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
  • Fill out patient registration forms prior to arriving for you appointment.

Contact our office today with any questions, or to schedule an appointment!
