Before your first visit

What to bring and what to expect

Your signal
Think about what you'd like it to be. A raised hand is the usual one, and a word works too.
Your plan's card, if you have one
We use it to file your claim. If you don't have insurance, we give you a written estimate.
How fees work
Forms on our portal
Fill in your health history on our private patient portal, not by email or in the contact form. You can do it at home.
Headphones, if you have them
Bring a pair, or borrow ours. Bring someone if you want company.

Your first visit

A talk, then only what you choose

About an hour, most of it conversation.

You sit at the table with Dr. Aiyar and tell her what you dread and what happened before. She shows you the room and the instruments, and answers questions. If you're ready, she takes a look at your teeth and gums, and X-rays only if she thinks she needs them. If you aren't, you go home and we book another time. You get a written estimate before any treatment.
