Your first visit will be a unique experience. . Prior to your visit our friendly staff will be able to answer many of your questions. . A friendly greeting upon your arrival is a must. . You will meet the Doctor in his private office, where both of you will discuss your medical and dental history, your goals and expectations of your mouth and smile in strict confidentiality. . Time is allotted to allow coverage of all of your concerns and comments.
 
Dr. Appelbaum will take all the above information and assimilate it into a comprehensive treatment plan based on his extensive training and knowledge. He will conclude and review all of the above findings and discuss the ideal treatment plan and alternative treatment plans. You then are given time to ask questions and sometimes a second consultation is indicated because of the extensiveness of the case. You will never be rushed into accepting any treatment. All your questions and concerns must be addressed prior to initiating any treatment. This approach to dental care is based on the philosophy that education is the best form of preventive dentistry. Preventive dentistry is much, much less expensive then the alternatives. Also, an informed patient has less apprehension and fear in regards to the their dental visits. The treatment plan acts as a road map and we will follow it as it was outlined. You can rest assured knowing that we will also address your individual comfort levels at each appointment.
