The Tour
- According to many of our new patients, "The Tour" is perhaps one of the most unique features of our services at CitiDent. You get to discuss and share your goals, concerns, and priorities about your dental health with the dentist.
- After this interactive and educational discussion, a Treatment Plan is formed based on your dental needs, personal goals and priorities.
- For those patients who would like to use their dental benefit for their treatment, an estimate of the plan coverage is also included in the treatment plan.
- A separate visit is then scheduled for teeth cleaning and/or other treatment discussed on the treatment plan.
Bring your smile, but also remember to bring these with you to your first appointment:
- Your completed patient information form
- Your insurance card
