Our practice is committed to providing you with safe, gentle, and state-of-the-art dental care. We understand that you may feel anxious about visiting the dentist. You are not alone, and our practice puts forth an extra effort to make sure that you are comfortable and happy every time you visit our office. We are sensitive to your needs as a patient, and you can always count on receiving individual attention from our doctors and staff.

Your first visit is all about you ... your comfort, your happiness, and your dental health.

Your first visit with Dr. Robert Rose or Dr. Steven Hart includes:

• A review of your complete dental and medical history forms.
• Complete (necessary) X-rays of your teeth
• A comprehensive oral and dental examination --- including oral cancer screening examination; examination of your gums, teeth and jaws (checking for gum disease, TMJ dysfunction, bite inconsistencies, tooth decay as well as assessing the integrity of your existing dental restorations and fillings). We will also discuss and review all your cosmetic concerns.
• Once the doctor has reviewed your dental and medical health history forms and completed your dental exam, he will provide you with a dental consultation, and information about any additional dental treatments you may need.
• Usually your dental cleaning can be accomplished in the first visit (but, this can often depend on how long it has been since your previous cleaning as well as the overall health of your gums).

Bring your smile, but also remember to bring these things with you to your first dental appointment:

• Your completed Health History Form
• Your completed Dental Health Questionaire Form
• Your completed Patient Information Form
• Your signed HIPAA Information and Consent Form
• Your insurance card

Regular checkups are an important part of maintaining your healthy smile!

No matter your age, visiting the dentist on a regular basis will help keep your teeth and gums healthy, and your smile bright!

The American Dental Association recommends that you visit the dentist (at least) every six months for regular checkups and routine teeth cleanings, and we would love to see you here every six months to make sure that your smile is staying healthy!

We understand that you have a busy schedule, so we like to make sure your appointments are informative and don't stop you from doing the things you love! When preparing to visit the dentist, please know that your appointment can last from 40 to 60 minutes.

When it's time for your next dental appointment, please call (610) 687-0990, and our friendly office staff will be ready to help you schedule an appointment.
