FRONT DESK
The information on your intake form is an important part of how we deliver your dental care. In them, we ask for both your medical and dental history. That’s because there are a number of health concerns that will impact your oral health – and what extra precautions we will take when it comes to designing a fully customized solution to help you achieve and maintain excellent oral health. If you’d like to prepare in advance for your first visit, please fill in our confidential, secure online form. If you’d prefer your services in Spanish, please fill out the Confiencial in Espanol, Formulario Historial Medico Dental forms and bring them to your first appointment.
GENTLE HYGIENE
Our dental hygienists are gentle and compassionate professionals who truly want the best for your smile. They take a little more time at your first appointment to create a map of your mouth that will be used to track any changes that occur over time. This helps us provide the individualized care that you want and deserve for your family. Our hygienists are patient-education specialists who love helping you improve your homecare routines or answering any question you have about your oral health.
DIGITAL DIAGNOSTICS
At North Babcock Dental Care, we use digital imaging technologies that are set to emit less radiation than traditional film x-rays. We also use something called an intraoral camera. About the size of a pen, this camera allows us to show you images of what we see while we examine your mouth. We use these technologies to create a baseline for your future needs and as communication tools to help you understand the condition of your oral health.
CHECKUP
This is where you get to meet your dentists. Dr. Otto Herod and Dr. Luis Galvan are diagnostic and treatment experts who are dedicated to helping you achieve all you desire for your smile. Using a personalized approach, our doctors work with you to identify issues and plan any required treatment.
