Thank you for choosing Lepore Comprehensive Dentistry in Dunedin, Florida, as your home for your dentistry needs!
What to expect at your first visit:
Your first visit to get established at Lepore Comprehensive Dentistry begins with an in-depth look into your medical history. Our goal is to provide the tools you need to become the healthiest version of yourself.
Your first visit will consist of a two-hour appointment, with the first hour dedicated to gathering photos, X-rays, and performing your dental exam. The second hour will be with a member of our hygiene team. Your hygienist will take measurements to evaluate the health of your gum and bone tissue. This evaluation by your hygienist includes measuring for areas of gum recession or mobility.
Digital Photos
We take a series of digital photos that we use for diagnostic purposes. You can review these photos on our iPad for educational purposes.
Digital X-rays
A full series of digital X-rays will be taken. We check for conditions such as dental cavities, infections, root fractures, and bone loss.
Intra-Oral Camera Photos
We take individual close-up photos of all of your teeth.
Intra and Extra-Oral Examination
Dr. Lepore or Dr. Dougherty will thoroughly evaluate all of your teeth, assess your TMJ and lymph nodes, and perform an oral cancer screening. Additionally, they will evaluate you for signs of airway disorder, otherwise known as obstructive sleep apnea.
Should you need treatment, our treatment coordinator, alongside Drs. Lepore and Dougherty are here to answer any questions that you have. We encourage you to schedule a consultation to discuss your dental needs.
