Visiting the dentist can often bring about a sense of unease, especially if you’re unsure of what to expect. At McCue Dental Health, we believe in transparency and patient education. This blog post will guide you through what you can expect during your family dental visit, ensuring that you and your loved ones feel comfortable and well-informed.

Your Arrival

Upon your arrival at our clinic, you’ll be greeted by our friendly reception staff. We understand that punctuality is important to our patients, and we strive to ensure that your appointment begins on time. At this point, you may need to fill out or update any necessary paperwork. We recommend arriving a few minutes early, particularly if it’s your first visit.

Our waiting room is designed with your comfort in mind, offering a calm and welcoming environment while you wait for your appointment. Our team is always available to answer any questions or address any concerns you may have.

The Dental Exam

Dr. Shaun McCue will conduct a comprehensive dental examination, which includes a thorough check of your teeth, gums and mouth. This is crucial in detecting any potential issues early, such as cavities, gum disease or oral cancer. We use the latest technology to ensure accurate diagnosis and treatment planning.

We believe in preventative care, and as such, we’ll provide you with personalized advice on maintaining good oral health. This includes tips on effective brushing and flossing, dietary advice, and recommendations for your next dental check-up.

Treatment Planning

If any issues are detected during your exam, Dr. McCue will discuss these with you and recommend a treatment plan. We believe in patient-centered care, and will always take the time to explain your options, ensuring you’re fully informed and comfortable with your treatment decisions.

We understand that the cost of dental care can be a concern for many families. At McCue Dental Health, we offer a variety of payment options and will work with you to find a solution that fits within your budget.

Professional Cleaning

A professional dental cleaning is an integral part of your visit. Our skilled dental hygienists will gently remove any plaque or tartar build-up, followed by a polishing procedure to leave your teeth feeling clean and fresh. This process not only contributes to the health of your teeth and gums, but also helps to prevent bad breath and boosts your overall oral health.

Regular professional cleanings are a key component of preventative dental care, helping to keep your teeth and gums healthy and reducing your risk of dental disease. We recommend scheduling a professional cleaning every six months, or as advised by Dr. McCue.

Departure and Follow-Up

Before you leave, our team will ensure that you’re fully informed about any necessary follow-up appointments or treatments. We’ll also provide you with any necessary resources or information to help you maintain good oral health at home. Our goal is to ensure that every patient leaves our clinic feeling confident and well-cared for.

We understand that life can get busy, and so our team will send you a reminder when it’s time for your next check-up or treatment. We’re committed to making your dental care as convenient and stress-free as possible.
