Your First Visit

Your initial appointment at NW Endodontics will consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Same day consultation and treatment can be arranged by your referring dentist in certain cases. Patients with complex medical history, pre-medications (sedatives) or a complex treatment plan will require an evaluation first. The treatment appointment would then be scheduled on another day.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

• Your referral slip and any X-rays from your general dentist
• A list of medications you are currently taking
• If you have dental insurance, please bring a copy of your ID card. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.

IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to treatment (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.)

X-Rays

If your general dentist has taken x-rays, they usually will forward them to our office. Our email for this purpose is info@nwendodontics.ca. If there is not enough time for the dentist to send the x-rays to us, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional x-rays are necessary, they will be taken at our office.
