First Visit With Eastside Oral Surgery Associates

Consultation With Oral Surgeon

Your initial appointment will consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:

  • Your surgical referral slip and any x-rays if applicable.
  • A list of medications you are presently taking.
  • If you have dental insurance, bring the necessary forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.

IMPORTANT: All patients under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit.

A preoperative consultation and physical examination is mandatory for patients undergoing IV anesthesia for surgery. Please have nothing to eat or drink eight hours prior to your surgery. You will also need an adult to drive you home.

Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves, prosthetic joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medications (i.e., heart medications, blood thinners, bisphosphonate therapy, immunosuppressants, etc.).

X-Rays

If your dentist or physician has taken x-rays, you may request that they forward them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office. If additional films are necessary, then new x-rays will be done at our facility.
