What to Expect at Your First Visit to Miyasaki Dental

Whether you have dental anxiety or not, it’s always nice to know what will happen at your first appointment at any dentist’s office. From the moment you walk in the door, you will feel our warm welcome and know you are a valued member of the Miyasaki Dental family.

We offer several amenities to keep you at ease and comfortable during your time with us. Our dentistry practice focuses on the entire family, and we are privileged to treat people of all ages. We will be there for your toddler’s first dental visit and your grandparents’ first experience with tooth replacement options.

Comprehensive Evaluation

After gathering your demographic information and past medical history, we will invite you back for a comprehensive exam, including x-rays and an oral cancer screening, using the most advanced technology available today.

You will see the dentist for a comprehensive exam as a new patient. During this exam, our general dentist will discuss your health history and any concerns you may have. We may even take your blood pressure to ensure you can proceed with the rest of the initial appointment.

During your exam, Dr. Miyasaki will review your dental x-rays and complete an oral cancer screening, which includes an examination of your jaw, neck, tongue, and inside of your mouth.

Goals will be discussed, and we will schedule your next visit, whether for another dental exam and cleaning or to begin a treatment plan.

This initial exam will take about an hour and is essential so your dental team can identify any issues like gum disease or cavities. Based on your exam, we will develop a personalized treatment plan and discuss your options.

On your first visit, you may not receive a cleaning. A cleaning may be completed after the doctor ensures the appropriate treatment for your oral health. Once your oral health is stabilized, you can expect your exam and cleaning/hygiene appointments to go forward simultaneously.

Comprehensive dental care focusing on preventative dentistry is the key to our success. The more steps we take to prevent dental disease, the better your chances are of never experiencing dental disease. We strive to achieve optimal oral health, which, in turn, will improve your general health and emotional well-being.

PATIENT TESTIMONIALS

Thorough Care & Education: A Dental Experience Like No Other

I’ve never had such thorough care as a new patient! They took such great interest in my history and gave me a comprehensive exam. The whole time they were educating me on what they were looking for and what they found. I even learned something new about the way my jaw works, which no dentist has ever shared with me before. They were warm, caring and very thorough. I have a history of dental issues and I feel confident that they can work with my existing treatments and keep me in tip top shape. Thank you!

We are very excited to offer this unique technology to our patients to find abnormalities before they become serious health concerns. The oral cancer survival rate is 83% when the cancer is found early, and it’s 40% if it’s found later. Our technology has saved many lives, and we are thrilled to offer this screening tool to our patients.
