Initial Consultation
At your initial consultation, you will meet with either Dr. Joel Alper or Dr. Nivedhitha Ramesh who will do a thorough review of your medical and dental history. They will then give you a comprehensive dental examination and oral cancer screening (including any necessary x-rays), explain your diagnosis, present you with treatment options, and recommend a solution to restore your oral health. Afterwards, the doctor will discuss your examination and treatment plan with your restorative dentist.
Please inform the staff if you have any medical conditions that could affect your treatment (i.e. artificial heart valves and/or joints, rheumatic fever, diabetes, etc.) or if you currently take medications that could affect your treatment (ie. aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, Fosamax, etc.). And please follow your physician’s instructions regarding any necessary pre-medications.
