Check out the “What is Nebraska Family Dentistry?” Video.
During your first visit, we will:
- Get to know you and spend some time reviewing your medical and dental history.
- Take all necessary digital x-rays for diagnosing your oral health.
- Clinically examine the health of your teeth and gums.
- Complete a regular cleaning or discuss having you back for a deep cleaning if necessary.
- The doctor will meet with you to complete an exam and go over the recommended treatment. They will also create a custom treatment plan suited to your needs and goals for oral health.
Some things to remember for your first appointment:
- Please bring your completed new patient and medical history forms. If you forget or were not able to print them out ahead of time, please arrive a few minutes early; this will allow you the necessary time to fill out paperwork in our office.
- If you have dental insurance, please bring your insurance card and primary subscriber information, if you are not the primary policyholder.

We follow the American Dental Association’s recommendation to visit your dentist at least twice a year (every six months) for your regular cleaning and exam.
Sometimes your schedule is so tight that it seems impossible to squeeze one more thing in but to maintain proper oral and overall health. It’s especially important to make time for yourself! A regular new patient cleaning and exam typically takes about an hour and a half, while an existing patient needing a routine cleaning and exam will last about an hour. We have set our appointment times as such to allow us the time you deserve. Most of all, we want to get to know you and have time to provide you with the most exceptional, thorough care available.
Our dentists in Lincoln, NE are dedicated to Your comfort while providing excellent clinical care. We proudly offer:
Patient forms
For your convenience, we offer our new patient paperwork online. We invite you to print and fill out the appropriate forms and bring it with you to your first appointment. Filling out your forms ahead of time will help keep you right on schedule for your appointment; however, if you would prefer to fill them out in the office, please arrive about 10 minutes early, and we will be happy to take care of you.
To make things easier, we have added our patient forms online, so that you can fill them out at your convenience.
