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.
