The New Patient Exam
Your first appointment is a thorough, 90–120 minute visit designed to give us a complete picture of your oral health. Dr. Steely will carefully evaluate:
We’ll take any necessary x-rays, diagnostic photos, and may create models of your teeth. This becomes your personal baseline for oral health—a starting point we can measure from as we build your customized care plan. Our goal is to work with you, not on you.
Review of Findings
After your exam, you’ll be invited back for a relaxed consultation with Dr. Steely. Together, we’ll review your results, photographs, and treatment options. You’ll receive a step-by-step plan designed around your goals—whether that’s restoring health, enhancing your smile, or addressing issues like TMJ or airway concerns. You’ll also receive a written summary with costs outlined clearly in advance—no surprises, ever.
