Your first visit, step by step
No form-filling rush and no treatment sprung on you. A first visit is a conversation first — about your teeth, your history, and anything that makes you anxious about being here — then an exam only once you’re ready. You can stop and ask a question at any point.
What it costs
A first consultation and exam is charged at a flat rate — [CLIENT TO CONFIRM: new patient exam price]. Any further treatment is quoted in writing before it’s booked, never decided on the day without your agreement.
Questions nervous patients ask us most
I haven’t been to a dentist in years — will I be judged?
No. A lot of our patients come back after a long gap. We focus on where you are now, not on the years in between.
Can I stop treatment if I need a break?
Yes. Tell us at any point and we pause — mid-appointment if needed. You’re always in control of the pace.
Do you offer sedation for very nervous patients?
[CLIENT TO CONFIRM: which sedation options, if any, this practice offers]
How do I know what a treatment will cost before I agree to it?
You get a written quote before anything beyond the exam goes ahead — nothing is charged without your sign-off first.
What if I need to cancel or I’m running late?
Call the practice as early as you can — the number’s on every page. We hold nervous-patient slots a little looser than a standard booking.
Is the practice accessible if I have mobility needs?
[CLIENT TO CONFIRM: step-free access, accessible parking, hearing loop details]
