Your First Appointment

FEEL AT HOME FROM THE MOMENT YOU WALK IN

At Lane Dentistry, we know that visiting a new dental office can feel overwhelming. That’s why Dr. Lane and his team are committed to creating an experience that is welcoming, transparent, and stress-free. Our goal is to make you feel comfortable and confident from your very first appointment. We’ll chat with you to understand your unique needs. Our team will explain every step as we evaluate your oral health, so you’ll always know what to expect.

A Warm Welcome

FROM CHILDREN TO GRANDPARENTS, EVERYONE IS INVITED

Our practice proudly serves patients of all ages. While most children begin routine dental visits around age two or three, we welcome toddlers for happy visits before this to help them grow comfortable in a dental environment. From your child’s first professional teeth cleaning to your own care, our team at Lane Dentistry is here to provide a true dental home for your entire family.

A Thorough Evaluation

GETTING THE FULL PICTURE OF YOUR ORAL HEALTH

Your first visit helps us understand your overall oral health so we can create a plan tailored just for you.

We’ll begin with full-mouth digital X-rays to establish a baseline of your current health and identify potential issues early. These modern digital X-rays also serve as a guidepost for future changes. You'll also revceive a gum health evaluation, and if time allows, we'll complete your professional dental cleaning at this visit.

Our digital X-rays come with several advantages:

  • Lower radiation exposure compared to traditional film
  • Clearer, more detailed images for accurate diagnosis
  • Instant results we can review together
  • A small, comfortable sensor for a full view with minimal discomfort

When more detailed information is needed, we may recommend cone beam imaging, which provides a precise 3D view of your teeth, jaw, and surrounding structures for advanced treatment planning.

Clear Communication

KNOWLEDGE AND GUIDANCE YOU CAN TRUST

Once your evaluations are complete, Dr. Lane will talk to you about his findings in detail. He truly believes every patient deserves to fully understand their oral health. During this conversation, Dr. Lane will:

  • Share a summary of your results
  • Discuss your personal goals and concerns
  • Provide recommendations for care, from preventive treatments to restorative or cosmetic options

You’ll receive a comprehensive treatment plan that outlines recommended next steps. We’re here to answer all your questions so you feel confident in moving forward, but decisions about treatment are yours to make.

Financial Consultation

SUPPORTING YOUR HEALTH AND YOUR BUDGET

Our team understands that financial planning is an important part of your dental care. That’s why your first visit includes a conversation about payment options tailored to your needs. We’ll review your insurance benefits and help you understand your coverage.

For patients without insurance, we offer our Lane Loyalty Program, an in-house membership plan that makes quality dental care more affordable. No matter your situation, our goal is to help you prioritize your oral health without unnecessary financial stress.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

DEDICATED TIME FOR PERSONALIZED CARE

Because your first appointment is comprehensive, we reserve about two hours for that appointment. This time allows us to get to know your goals, complete thorough evaluations, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan tailored to your needs.

Your first visit to Lane Dentistry marks the beginning of a long-term relationship built on trust and care. From toddlers to seniors, every patient is welcomed with compassion, care, and respect.
