What to Expect at Your First Visit

The team at Osuna Dental Care is dedicated to delivering exceptional care in a welcoming environment where you can relax and feel genuinely at ease from the moment you walk in.

When you arrive, you'll be greeted by our friendly front desk team. We'll provide you with new patient paperwork — a health questionnaire, insurance and contact information — along with details about how we handle patient privacy.

Your initial examination takes around one hour. Dr. Kim or Dr. Graham will ask about your oral hygiene routine, listen carefully to your concerns and complete a thorough examination of your teeth, gums and bite. Our dental hygienist will clean your teeth as part of the visit.

We believe in educating patients and empowering them to make informed decisions about their oral health. We'll show you proper care techniques, answer every question and present clear recommendations for any proposed treatments — with full transparency on what's involved and what it costs.

Pain management is a priority at every visit. Before any procedure, Dr. Kim or Dr. Graham will meet with you to discuss your comfort level and create a plan that minimizes discomfort and gets you back to your day as quickly as possible. Patients with dental anxiety are always welcome — just let us know and we'll adjust accordingly.
