- Supporting documentation for guardianship/POA
- Identification of alternate decision maker/guardian/POA
WHAT TO EXPECT
The first visit will be a Tele-Health consultation in which we review the contents of the welcome packet, ask and answer additional questions, clarify processes and prepare for the first in-person visit. If the patient is not active on the Patient Portal, we would encourage this to be created for video visit capabilities. This is the best strategy for this visit. If Patient Portal access is impossible, we would then consider conducting the first Tele-Health visit via telephone
Prior to the first appointment, a welcome packet will be sent to all prospective patients, which will need to be completed and returned to the School of Dentistry. After receipt, a representative will contact you to review the information and determine appropriate next steps.
FEES AND PAYMENT OPTIONS
We accept most major dental insurance. Call for more information or view the Insurance Information Sheet for details.
