A Unique 2 Part New Patient Experience

Whether your child is new to the dentist, or has been many times, our goal for your family to have a positive introduction to what we hope will be a long relationship between your family and the team at Sunnyside Pediatric Dentistry.  As your new pediatric dental home, we want to be here to help your children grow up  with strong happy and healthy smiles.

​Step 1: Initial 
Consultation - Phone Call or Video Chat with Dr. Sophie

All new families to the practice begin with a complimentary initial virtual consultation.  You can schedule phone call, or video chat. If your child is nervous about coming to the dentist we highly recommend a video chat at a time when they can be present. During this session, we will:
  1. Review Medical + Dental Histories
  2. Review any records from their previous dental office
  3. Discuss any specific concerns you may have about your child's oral health
  4. Begin creating goals for establishing your dental home with our office

Step 2: Comprehensive Exam Visit
In order to establish care with our practice, all patients must complete a comprehensive new patient exam.  Even if they were recently seen by another provider Dr. Sophie will perform her own examination and treatment planning.  During the comprehensive exam visit, the goal is complete the following: 
  1. A thorough visual examination
  2. X-rays if indicated
  3. Intra-oral photographs if indicated
  4. A thorough cleaning
  5. Fluoride Varnish if recommended​​

Given the distinct personalities of each child, there are times when several shorter focused visits are more successful.  By working with each family individually to develop a long term patient care plan strategy, we can help to guide the positive behaviors that build the trust, confidence and cooperation that each child needs to have a great patient experience and a healthy happy smile

​Preparing for Your Consultation + First Visit

​​Your first visit begins at home! 
​
Before your consultation, please complete the new online patient forms so that we can gather valuable information about your family and your child.  With
 this information we will begin to create family centered goals for your experience with Sunnyside Pediatric Dentistry as well as a customized behavior guidance strategy that will help encourage a successful first visit!

*Please be sure to forward all previous dental records as well if applicable (X-Rays, Photos & Treatment Record)
