Welcome to Raquel Reis Digital Dentistry!
We’re excited to have you on board for your first appointment with us. Your oral health journey begins here, and we’re committed to making it a comfortable and informative experience for you.
Your first appointment is scheduled for approximately an hour and a half. During this time, we’ll be covering several essential aspects of your dental care:
Initial Consultation: We’ll start with a warm welcome and a brief chat with our DSD coordinator to get to know you better. Understanding your dental history, concerns, and goals is crucial for tailoring our care to your specific needs.
Precision in Planning: In digital dentistry, every treatment plan begins with a thorough understanding of the patient’s facial structure and dynamics. A DSD protocol of pictures serve as the foundation upon which we build, allowing us to analyze proportions, symmetry, and harmony with unparalleled accuracy. Whether it’s assessing the alignment of teeth or designing a custom facially driven smile makeover, these photographs provide invaluable insights that guide our every decision.
Intraoral Scanning: Our state-of-the-art technology (ITERO) allows us to create precise digital impressions of your teeth and gums. This non-invasive process replaces the traditional messy impressions, providing us with detailed 3D models for accurate diagnostics and treatment planning.
Digital Imaging: To gain a comprehensive view of your oral health, we’ll be taking full mouth x-rays. These images help us detect any underlying issues such as cavities, bone loss, or impacted teeth that may not be visible during a visual examination. CBCT will be required if Invisalign is recommended.
Comprehensive Examination: Our experienced dentist will conduct a thorough check-up of your oral cavity, including your teeth, gums, jaw joints, and soft tissues. We’ll evaluate your overall oral health, identify any existing problems, and discuss potential treatment options.
Throughout your appointment, we encourage you to ask questions and share any concerns you may have. Your comfort and satisfaction are our top priorities, and we’re here to address your needs every step of the way.
By the end of your visit, you’ll leave our office with a clearer understanding of your oral health status and personalized recommendations for maintaining or improving it. We look forward to embarking on this journey with you and helping you achieve a smile that radiates confidence and vitality.
If you have any further questions or need to reschedule your appointment, feel free to reach out to our friendly reception team. See you soon!
Warm regards,
Raquel Reis Digital Dentistry Team
