Are you looking for a dentist in Courtenay? Driftwood Dental is accepting new patients and families. Whatever your smile needs, we’re here to help!
What to expect during your first appointment
As a new patient at Driftwood Dental, your initial appointment will include a consultation with one of our dentists.
During your first appointment with us, our team will take x-rays and photographs for our records, and will review your past dental and medical history. This will help us get a complete picture of your oral health, which in turn will inform your treatment process.
Your dentist will also perform a quick oral examination to present a diagnosis of any dental problems you are experiencing. Based on this examination, the dentist will recommend the appropriate treatment options for your dental care.
We look forward to welcoming you to our dental family!
At your first appointment, please provide:
- Your Personal Health number (Formerly the MSP Care Card)
- A list of medications you are presently taking.
- If you have medical or dental insurance, please bring your insurance card or number.
This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims or pre-determinations.
