What to Expect

You will receive an oral health examination at the first visit. This often includes 3D scans of the head, neck, mouth, and face to assess the condition or detect any other issues. Dr. Alfi will discuss in detail your options for treatment and anesthesia options if required for surgery. If surgery is necessary, we will schedule future appointments. We will also provide you with a cost estimate for treatment at this time.
