New Patients
Your first examination appointment will be very easy and simple. There is no treatment done that day (unless requested and appropriate). If the thought of an exam on the first day is terrifying, realize you are one of many who feel the same. In these cases the first day will simply consist of a conversation about your dental needs, medical history, and the option of receiving the exam under sedation.
The exam consists of a discussion of your medical and dental histories, radiographic (X-ray) examination of the teeth and bone, identification of your main concerns, and a clinical examination of soft (cheek, lip, tongue) and hard (teeth) tissues
The exam will determine whether your dental needs are simple or more complex. If simple, your options will be presented that day and a cleaning can be scheduled. If complex, Dr. Paul will gather the pertinent data and have you return for a consultation. This will allow adequate time to present you with your options and develop a thorough plan to regain your dental health.
Emergencies are Welcome
Sometimes life does not go as planned. Much like cars, teeth do not typically start ‘acting up’ at convenient times. Even if you have never seen us before, do not hesitate to call if you are having an emergency (visible swelling, severe pain that is waking you up at night, or significant bleeding).
Financial Options
We offer many different ways to help fit your desired treatment into your budget.
Save 10% if paying by cash or check in full on the day of service, and 7% if paying by credit or debit cards.
If you have insurance, we will file all the necessary paperwork for you and ensure you are getting the most out of your coverage.
Make payments over time with no interest through CareCredit, or minimal interest over longer time periods with other programs. Starting a dental savings plan and phasing treatment is a great way to get started on regaining your oral health if finances are tight. Whatever your situation, rest assured we have worked with it before. You do not need to live with unhealthy teeth. We will find a way to make the finances work so that you can achieve a healthy, beautiful smile.

Wonderful! Gentle, painless and excellent work. Been here for 31 years and always thought it was the best ever. As a younger person, had pain with dentistry. People here are all very friendly and every room is spotless! A comfortable experience on all levels.

I love the fact that I didn’t have to experience any pain and was comfortable with my treatment. Dr. Paul’s staff are very caring and go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and check on you after your treatment. I never had a call from a dentist in the past after treatment to see how I was feeling–that is until he called to check on me. I would recommend him to anyone because of his caring ways! The whole office staff plays a part in your caring procedure.

Dr. Paul and his staff are very efficient, they make you feel welcome, they go the extra mile to make sure you are comfortable before, during and after the procedure. What differentiates them from other experiences I had is how much concern they show for the well being of the patient. I love the fact that they explain everything as they go along, they are very personable.

I have always had severe nervousness about dental visits. It has varied over the years but it has been an issue with me missing many dental appointments. I had begun to experience some issues with eating or drinking cold items, and also had been feeling less confident socially due to the appearance of my teeth. I definitely feel more relaxed and confident about continuing to follow-up my dental care. I feel like they have helped me turn a corner in being able to follow through with continued dental care. My sincere thanks to all!

I could not have had a better experience. Everyone is kind and has a smile on their face. They care! It’s not about the money. It’s making people comfortable. When people go out the door they are pain free and know no one could give them better care and could care for them more. From past experience doctors were more worried about getting paid than my pain or my teeth! Thanks for being there for me! I am so glad I am now a patient here!
