Whether it's only been six months since you've seen a dentist or six years, you may feel nervous about your first dental appointment. Knowing what to expect can help to ease anxiety, so today, we're going to discuss what a first visit at Harlow Dental entails, what you can do to prepare, and what to expect when you visit one of our three locations in Charlotte, NC.

Preparing for Your First Dental Visit

One of the best ways to prepare for your first visit to Harlow Dental is to complete your patient forms online ahead of time, so you won't have to worry about it when you arrive at our dental office. You can also gather your questions and write them down so you can make the most of your time with our dentists. We look forward to getting to know you, and our team spends a lot of time reviewing your health history, discussing your smile goals, and reviewing treatment needs, if there are any. So get ready to chat!

It's also a good idea to get your dental insurance information ready to share, if you have any. We're happy to review your specific plan with you and help you navigate your benefits.

If you don't have dental insurance, be sure to ask one of our team members about our In-House Savings Plan, which helps you cover your preventive teeth cleanings, checkups, and x-rays, for one low yearly fee. It also offers additional savings on certain restorative and cosmetic procedures to help defray your out-of-pocket costs.
