Official Team Dentist for the Texas Stars Hockey Team
First Visit with Mesa Dental
A comprehensive examination is the foundation for empowering our patients to make informed decisions about their oral health. In most cases, high-quality X-rays are a necessary part of the exam. The comprehensive exam includes a soft-tissue exam (cancer screening), periodontal exam (gum disease), and exam of the teeth.
All the information we gather will be reviewed by you and Dr. Mann, and you will be an active participant in planning any necessary dental treatment. You will be encouraged to ask questions and share your thoughts so that we can create a custom dental care plan that makes you feel confident and comfortable.
Your initial visit will last 90 minutes. We kindly ask that you complete all the Patient Forms regarding your Medical History, Dental History, Insurance, and Personal Information online prior to scheduling your appointment. This will ensure that all our time is devoted to you and your dental needs when you are in the office.
Appointment Policy
Mesa Dental respects every patient's time, and we kindly request the same consideration. Please be courteous and call our office promptly should you need to change your appointment. This will enable us to treat another patient in a timely manner.
We request a minimum of two (2) business days (Monday-Thursday) notice to change appointments. Inadequate notice may result in a late change of appointment fee.
We provide multiple courtesy reminders for upcoming appointments. Please let us know how you wish to be contacted. We utilize text and email messaging, and personal phone calls are provided upon request.
Financial Policy
We accept cash, check, VISA, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover. Payment of your estimated portion is always due at the time services are rendered.
