PATIENT INFORMATION

First Visit to Michelle H. Mottinger, DDS, PA

Your initial appointment will typically consist of x-rays and a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Occasionally, treatment can be done the same day as the consultation. However, an involved medical history or treatment plan will require through discussion and a second appointment to provide treatment.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

  • Any current X-rays, if applicable.
  • A list of medications you are presently taking.
  • If you have dental insurance, bring your current card. This will  allow us to help you process any claims.

IMPORTANT: A parent or guardian must accompany all patients under 18 at the consultation visit.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.) or require medication prior to dental cleanings (i.e. antibiotics, for pre-med.)

X-Rays

If your previous dentist has taken recent x-rays (within 6-months), you may request that they forward them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional films are necessary, they can be taken at our office.
