To achieve our goals and help serve your needs, every patient should have a comprehensive dental and periodontal examination (please see Our Services for examination procedures and options). The results of this examination are analyzed by our doctors. Findings are then discussed with your general dentist, and a complete diagnosis and comprehensive treatment plan are formulated. Written and oral reports are sent to your general dentist.
Dr. Walsh and Dr. Vittori pride themselves on making your dental and periodontal experiences as pleasant and as comfortable as possible. Educating patients about their treatment beforehand is the best way to make them feel the most comfortable. Dr. Walsh and staff thoroughly explain their treatment philosophy and procedures. If you have any questions before or during the procedure, we will carefully explain further and wont begin again until you feel fully confident. Building trust reduces fear and affords a pleasant dental experience.
