What to Bring to Your First Visit

Preparing ahead helps us give you the smoothest, most efficient experience possible.

To ensure your appointment is smooth, efficient and personalized, please bring the following:

    • Photo ID
    • Dental insurance card(s)
    • Referral slip, if provided
    • List of current medications
    • Your medical and dental history
    • Completed insurance forms, if applicable

If you have recent X-rays from another dental office, simply request that they send them directly to us. If additional images are needed for a complete diagnosis, we can take them comfortably in our office.

Important: Patients under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian during the visit.

What to Expect

Your first visit is designed to be comfortable, informative and empowering. We begin by reviewing your medical and dental history, followed by a thorough examination so we can truly understand your oral health. If dental X-rays are needed, we’ll take them onsite to ensure we have a complete and accurate picture of your smile.

After your exam, Dr. Kim will walk you through any findings in clear, easy-to-understand terms. You’ll receive personalized guidance on hygiene, diet and preventive care so you can keep your smile healthy between visits.

For Children

Children ages 3 and older typically receive a gentle cleaning, polishing and fluoride treatment during their visit. We explain each step in kid-friendly language to help them feel confident and safe. Our goal is to make every child’s first appointment positive, comfortable and encouraging, which sets the stage for healthy habits and stress-free future visits.

We always recommend scheduling a child’s first dental visit before problems arise. Early prevention helps avoid bigger issues later, and catching early signs of decay can allow us to reverse or slow down their progression.

If we identify any concerns that require treatment, we’ll review the findings and recommend appropriate follow-up appointments.
