Your First Visit in West Union
We’re Excited to Meet You
A great smile starts with a great first visit. At Smile Designs of Southern Ohio in West Union, we'll take the time to get to know you, evaluate your dental or orthodontic needs, and help you feel comfortable every step of the way.
A Warm Welcome
From the moment you arrive, our goal is to help you feel comfortable and at ease. Our team will greet you, answer any questions you may have, and make sure you have everything you need before your appointment begins.
Whether it's your first visit to a dental office in years or you're exploring orthodontic treatment for the first time, we're committed to creating a welcoming experience for patients of all ages.
Learning About Your Smile
To better understand your smile, we'll gather the information needed to evaluate your teeth, bite, and overall oral health. Depending on your needs, this may include digital X-rays, photos, digital scans, or other diagnostic records.
These images give us a complete picture of your smile and help us make informed recommendations based on your individual needs.
Your Comprehensive Exam
Once your records are complete, Dr. Ben McDonald will perform a thorough examination of your teeth, bite, and overall oral health. This is an opportunity to identify any concerns, discuss your goals, and answer questions about your smile.
By combining your records with your exam findings, we can better understand your needs and recommend the care that's right for you.
Your Treatment Options
After your exam, we'll review what we found and explain our recommendations in clear, easy-to-understand language. You'll have the opportunity to ask questions, learn about your treatment options, and discuss the approach that best fits your needs and goals.
Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about your smile, so you'll never feel rushed or pressured into treatment.
Planning Your Next Steps
Before you leave, our team will review any recommended next steps and help you schedule future appointments if needed. We'll also answer questions about insurance, financing, or treatment costs so you know what to expect moving forward.
We strive to make every part of your experience as simple and stress-free as possible, so you can feel confident about caring for your smile.
