New Patients.

New Patient Examination (NPE)

This is a thorough full mouth examination. We start with a consultation which gives you theopportunity to express your dental needs, concerns, and desires with the dentist who hasreviewed your welcome pack documents and initial screening OPG radiograph.

We then move into the clinical area, where a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and associated structures is undertaken, including any of your prostheses. Following the clinical investigations, a complete series of photographic and radiographic records are taken, as well as diagnostic casts of your teeth. If any special investigations are needed, you will be advised and directed where appropriate.

The NPE is finished with a discussion about your individual situation and Dr Innes will work with you to outline an appropriate course forward depending on the clinical findings and your desires. In some instances, where complex treatment modalities are required, a further consultation may be required.
This appointment is for those who want to get the best out of their dentist and have a long term goal of oral health.

Emergency

Dental pain or discomfort can be debilitating. We keep time aside each day for our patients incase the situation arises where you just need to get out of pain.
Another common emergency is trauma to the teeth and face. If such an event occurs, you can simply contact us and we will see to you ASAP.

Cosmetic or Implant Consultation

Sometimes, you may just want to discuss a single problem or concern you have, but may not necessarily want any treatment done on the day. The consultation is a time to do just that. We have these times available throughout the week.

Consultation via referral

Has your general dentist referred you to see Dr Innes? If you are booking a consultation under the recommendation of your general dentist please let us know when booking so we can have all relevant records sent over to the practice in preparation for your visit. Dr Innes will assess your specific concerns and correspond with your general dentist to enable you to achieve your desired outcomes. If you would like your general dentist to organise a referral for you to see Dr Innes they can send information through our ‘for referrers’ tab within this website.
