Your first visit: what to expect
By Marloe Dental Co. · 12 May 2026

If it’s been a while since your last check-up, the hardest part is often just booking in. Here’s what a first visit with us actually looks like, start to finish.
A chat first
We start by talking — about your history, anything that’s been bothering you, and what you’d like to get out of your visit. There’s no rush and no judgement.
A thorough look
Next we examine your teeth and gums. We only take X-rays where they’re genuinely helpful, and we use low-dose digital imaging when we do.
A clean, and a clear plan
- A gentle scale and clean with our oral health therapist
- A written summary of what we found
- Options and costs explained before anything goes ahead
You leave knowing exactly where things stand and what — if anything — you might want to do next. If you have questions after, you can always call us.
