We gladly accept new patients to our
growing family. We are a true family practice
treating patients of all ages. Dr. Reeves bought
the practice in 2000 from Dr. Rhone (who retired
in 2000), which he had worked in for over thirty
years. Currently we have some clients who have
been coming to us for over twenty years,
including some second generation families.
The
practice
philosophy
is
simple,
help our
valued
patients
reach
optimum
oral
health
in a way
that
meets
their
needs
and
expectations.
There is
often
more
than one
way to
solve a
problem,
and it
is each
individuals
right to
decide
what
treatment
course
they
would
like to
follow.
Ultimately,
no
matter
what the
patients
needs
and
wants
are, the
most
important
thing is
to start
out
right
with a
proper
diagnosis.
That is,
through
early
detection
and
treatment
anyone
can have
a
healthy
mouth in
a cost
effective
matter.
With
this
philosophy
in
mind,
all
new
patients
get
a
thorough
work
up
which
includes...
-
Medical history review
-
Comprehensive history form followed by verbal interview. Many medical conditions complicate oral health and no treatment plan is complete without looking at the "big picture".
-
Dental history
-
Discussing past dental treatments helps define patient expectations, desires, and any anxieties, etc.
-
Soft tissue evaluation intra/extra oral
-
Soft tissues of the mouth, tongue, throat, lips, face, and neck are evaluated. Salivary glands are checked for function, enlargement, etc.
-
Oral cancer Screening
-
Done on every patient at every checkup
-
Periodontal Evaluation
-
Periodontal Screening and Recording done for new patients and at all check ups. PSR 3 or higher results in full periodontal exam
-
TMD Screening
-
Hard Tissue Exam
-
Teeth evaluated for decay, wear, signs of bruxism, erosion, fracture, etc. Occlusion (bite) evaluated.
-
Appropriate x-rays taken
-
Initial treatment plan proposed, more complex cases may require a second treatment planning appointment.
