What to expect when you see us

When you come in we require new patient paperwork to be filled out either in the office, or printed out from the website. Please bring a list of medications if applicable. You will receive an exam from Dr. Buck, as well as a panel of x-rays. We do accept recent x-rays from other offices so please have those prepared. 

On your first visit we'll spend approximately an hour preparing your teeth, choosing your shade, and fitting you with a temporary unit. 

About 2-3 weeks later, we will get the crown or bridge back from our local lab and spend about 20 minutes with you getting the unit fitted on. 

When you first see us, we'll spend about 30  minutes taking impressions and choosing the shade for your new partial denture. 

Around a week later when we receive your partial from the lab, you'll come back in for a short 15 minute visit for delivery. 

For your first visit we will take impressions of your mouth and pick a shade for your new teeth. This usually takes around 30 minutes.

Our lab will get the dentures back to us approximately a week later, then we will extract any teeth, if needed,  and then you'll go home with a brand new smile the same day.

Sometimes wax try-ins are required to make sure the dentures will look, and feel natural. This can add around 4 days to the process.
