Patient Information
Welcome to Hill Crest Dental Centre!
We feel so privileged that you’ve chosen our team of highly experienced professionals to care for your teeth. You can count on each of us to look after you with the utmost care and professionalism.
New Patients
What to expect on your first visit…
We encourage our new patients to schedule a comprehensive examination. At this appointment we review the relevant medical and dental history and open dialogue with you in order to determine your short and long-term dental goals.
A full set of digital x-rays will be taken to determine radiographic health of the teeth, roots and supporting bone. Visual and periodontal examinations are done of the soft and hard tissues to determine conditions of existing restorations, health of enamel, stability of the bite and jaw, and health of the gum tissues.
The results of our findings are then discussed with our patients. Any emergency dental needs will be addressed first. We will consider our patient’s goals together with the results of their extended examination. Options will then be discussed to achieve a stable and attractive smile, one that can help build self esteem and self satisfaction.
Insurance and Financial Planning
While most of our dental treatments are covered by insurance, we recognize that every person has different needs. Financial planning for what can be a substantial investment is important and we would like you to be well informed about the cost and payment options that are available to you. Please contact us for full details to assist you in deciding which form of payment will work best for you and your individual needs.
