New Patient Experience
Comprehensive Co-Discovery for Those Ready to Take Control of their Oral Wellness
Each person’s dental history, values, and goals are unique. Our New Patient Experience is an in-depth, two-step process designed for individuals who want a deeper understanding of their oral health—especially those who have faced ongoing dental issues or frustrations.
Appointment One
Discovery & Examination
We begin with a relaxed, open conversation outside the dental chair. Here, we take the time to understand your concerns, past dental experiences, and vision for your health. We’ll then share a story about the causes of dental disease followed by offering you a choice on how you’d like to be treated as a patient in our practice.
Following this discussion, we’ll move to the dental chair to begin our Co-discovery process, which includes:
- Clinical observations
- Digital X-rays
- Intraoral scans
- High-resolution photography
Appointment Two
Review of Findings
After analyzing your diagnostic records, Dr. Schaus will present a personalized overview of your oral health. Together, we will explore what we’re seeing and begin to Co-develop a customized care plan designed to align with your health goals. During this time, we can also discuss timing, financial considerations and help you to determine the best way to move forward.
