First Visit

Adults

Thank you for choosing our office for all your dental needs. We have created a comfortable environment where you can feel confident in the level of dental care you receive. When you arrive for your first visit, please bring with you or be prepared to complete all insurance and health information forms that will allow us to begin your dental treatment. To fill out these forms before your arrive for your first visit, please see our Forms page.

Your initial exam will last approximately one hour. This visit will help us get acquainted and learn about your goals and desires for your dental treatment. Generally, x-rays will be taken allowing us to examine the jaw’s structure, teeth position, and teeth decay. Please have your previous dentist send us any x-rays taken in the past 5 years. We will do a head and neck exam, oral cancer screening, and examinations of your teeth and gums. We will then meet with you to discuss our findings and any proposed treatment and to answer any questions.

We believe that good dental care begins with open communication. We promise to speak candidly with you about any symptoms present that may require further dental treatment, our diagnoses, alternative treatments that may exist, and our recommendations. Working together, we can achieve a true partnership with one common goal - keeping your smile beautiful and your teeth, gums, and jaw joints healthy.

Children

We love seeing children and always make the visits fun for the children and informative for the parents or caregivers. The initial exam and cleaning will last approximately 40 minutes. X-rays will be taken if needed and a thorough examination of the teeth and gums will be completed. We will then do the cleaning and fluoride treatment, go over good oral hygiene habits, and answer any questions you and your child may have. Then comes each child's favorite part of the appointment: the treasure chest. If no cavities are found, your child will become a member of that month’s “Zero Cavity Club.” At the end of each month we randomly select a winner whose picture with Drs. William and Cara Lund will be displayed on the Lund Dental Facebook page (with parental consent) and who will receive a $25 gift card to “Target.” Good dental health habits begin at a young age, and we work diligently to make each child’s visit to our office enjoyable.
