Start with the people you need to schedule and the reason for each visit. A child’s routine appointment, an adult’s overdue exam, and a consultation about an existing restoration may need different arrangements. Giving the office those details helps you plan before making the trip.
You do not need to decide on a treatment before contacting us. Describe what you want help with, and ask which appointment to book.
- Ongoing family care: Our family dentistry services include exams and cleanings. Tell the team each patient’s age and whether you are establishing care or returning for a visit.
- Existing dental work: If you want to discuss a filling, crown, or missing tooth, review restorative care options and mention any previous treatment when you call.
- Additional consultations: Ask about orthodontic or periodontal appointments when scheduling, rather than assuming they are included in a routine visit.
If you hope to arrange visits for several family members, ask about availability together. Appointment timing depends on the care needed and the schedule.
Choosing ongoing care is also about knowing who will answer your questions. Read about the Aurora Dental Care team and bring a short list of priorities to your first visit.
Let the office know if you are changing dentists or have recent records elsewhere. Ask how to arrange a records transfer before the appointment so you understand what is needed.
