First Visit
Your every visit is all about you - your health, your well-being, your desires. During your first visit, Dr. Chitgopekar will get to know you, review your dental and medical history, and take digital scans, intra-oral pictures, and x-rays of your teeth and gums. Most importantly, she will listen to your needs and wants, do a comprehensive examination of your mouth, and help you prioritize your needs and desires leveraging her specialized knowledge and 25+ years of professional experience. She will then work with you to create your personal treatment plan and answer any questions you may have including insurance options.
BRING YOUR QUESTIONS, BUT ALSO REMEMBER TO BRING THESE TO YOUR FIRST APPOINTMENT

REGULAR CHECKUPS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF MAINTAINING YOUR HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
The American Dental Association recommends a visit to your dentist every six months for regular checkups and routine cleanings to keep your teeth and gums healthy. As part of these hygiene visits, Dr. Chitgopekar will also do a comprehensive examination and present her findings.
This is also an opportunity for you to share your concerns about your health and quality of life with Dr. Chitgopekar. She will gladly spend the time helping you understand the risks posed by compromised oral hygiene on the the progression of chronic diseases like BP and diabetes, and a host of other debilitating ailments like snoring, acid reflux, morning headaches, excessive daytime fatigue and brain fog.
