For Our Patients
New Patients
During your first visit to our Escondido dental office, you will be taken on a short tour of the facility, and then you will meet with your doctor in a relaxed, private consultation room. Together, you and the doctor will discuss your needs and desires for your oral health. We generally recommend an examination and necessary X-rays to determine the condition of your teeth and any needed treatment. After your examination, the doctor will thoroughly explain his or her findings and recommendations. Our treatment coordinator will address any questions about insurance and financial arrangements.
Patient Forms
Save time and fill out your patient history form before your visit. Simply print off the patient history form (PDF), fill it out, and bring it with you to the office. We have also provided post-op instructions for after dental treatment.
Post Op Instructions
- Root Canal Therapy

- Crowns, Bridges, Onlays, Inlays, Bridges, and Veneers
