What to Expect on Your First Visit

We believe in providing a custom treatment plan for every patient, because no two mouths, or people, are alike. On your first visit, we will complete a thorough examination which will include:
  • Patient interview
  • Soft tissue evaluation (cancer screening exam)
  • Masticatory muscle evaluation
  • Occlusal (bite) evaluation
  • Supporting structures evaluation (gums and bones supporting teeth)
  • Radiographic evaluation
The information collected allows Dr. Holland to develop your custom treatment plan based on his diagnosis and your desires for care. So that you can make an informed decision about your treatment options, our goal is to do the following:
  • Identify your existing dental problems based on the examination and interview
  • Explain the implications of leaving those problems untreated
  • Provide a clear and concise understanding of your custom treatment plan

This comprehensive process not only allows you to feel secure in your medical decisions, it puts you on the best possible path to restoring the health, function, esthetics and comfort of your mouth.
