Initial Dental Consultation in Glen Waverley
Your first appointment at EK Dental Surgery is designed to help us understand your oral health, any concerns you may have, and the type of care that may be appropriate for you.
During this consultation, your dentist will discuss your dental history, symptoms, and treatment goals. This is also a good opportunity for you to ask questions, talk about discomfort or cosmetic concerns, and let us know what you would like to improve.
You may be asked to complete forms relating to your health history, medications, and previous dental treatment. Any available x-rays or records from previous providers may also be useful.
What Your First Appointment May Include
A thorough initial consultation may involve:
- checking the teeth for decay, cracks, wear, or other issues
- assessing the gums and supporting tissues
- reviewing existing fillings, crowns, or other dental work
- checking the bite and jaw function
- examining the soft tissues of the mouth
- taking x-rays where clinically appropriate
Once the examination is complete, your dentist will explain the findings and discuss the next steps. If treatment is needed, a personalised plan can be prepared based on your dental condition and priorities.
A Clear Start to Your Care
At EK Dental Surgery, we believe dental care works best when patients understand their options. We aim to communicate clearly about what we find, what it means, and what treatments may be considered.
