Front Desk


Front Desk

As with all medical fields, the dental health team at Dr. Etts’ office understands that your dental health cannot be treated without referencing your dental health history and your medical history. Oral health and overall health are closely connected, and issues with each can impact the other. You can even be more prone to developing certain dental health issues if you suffer from certain health concerns. Each patient is evaluated with the understanding that they are a unique individual with specialized needs and not simply a name on a chart. If you’d like to prepare for your first visit by completing these forms ahead of time, you can do so using our secure and easy-to-use patient intake form

Dental Hygiene

Your first dental cleaning with your hygienist will be longer than most. That’s just because we want to get to know you before we treat you. We need that extra time to create a mouth-map to track changes over time, making it possible to more-accurately determine your oral health needs and concerns. Your hygienist is a patient-education specialist who will happily help you or your family with the knowledge necessary to take care of your teeth at home.

Diagnostics


Diagnostics

In addition to digital x-rays, with up to 90% less radiation than old film x-rays, our office uses a small pen-sized camera called an intraoral camera. This technology allows us to show you what we see when examining your mouth. The combination of diagnostic information gives us a clearer picture for diagnosis and treatment planning.

Checkup

Meet Dr. Etts and discuss your personal oral health needs and desires. You’ll learn what we find while we work with you to determine the personalized approach that works best for you. Whether we set up a regular care schedule, design a treatment plan to address decay or gum issues, or discuss your cosmetic concerns, this is your chance to tell us what you like and don’t like about your smile and general oral health. Then we work with you to help you meet your goals.
