Your First Visit

At Ankeny Dental Professionals, we know that first visits to a new dentist’s office can be intimidating. Not only is your physical comfort important to us, but your emotional well-being is, too. Here is what you can expect during your initial visit to Ankeny Dental Professionals:

During your first visit, we will give you a tour of our office and get to know you by asking some questions about your medical and oral health history. Please bring a list of any medications you may be taking, and their dosages, including all vitamins and over-the-counter supplements.

We love to educate our patients and answer questions, so don’t be shy! We encourage you to ask questions and express your concerns or desires.

Next, we will perform a comprehensive oral exam that includes a non-invasive oral cancer screening, periodontal probing, charting your existing dental restorations, and x-rays. If time allows and no signs of periodontal disease are present, you will have a routine cleaning after your exam. Your provider will review his or her findings with you and create a dental treatment plan that reflects your wants and needs for a functional, healthy smile.

Emergency Dentistry and Urgent Care Needs

If you visit Ankeny Dental Professionals with immediate wants or needs, you can expect to spend about an hour at your first visit with your dentist and hygienist to discuss your goals, complete an evaluation, and develop a plan for your care. Our team is available for urgent dental appointments and dental emergencies.

Stress-Free Dental Financing

We offer many payment options and can prioritize and stagger your treatments to give you a smile you deserve in a timeframe you can afford.
