Scheduling Your First Appointment

When you’re ready to schedule your first appointment, call Edmond Dental at (405) 562-7778 and speak to a friendly member of our team who’s waiting to take your call. You can also request an appointment using our convenient online contact form.

Forms We Need

Please bring your photo ID and the insurance card you will be using.

Before we treat you, we also require your medical history and a list of medications you currently take. The paperwork you need to complete is here on our forms page. If you’re unable to fill them out beforehand, please arrive 15 minutes early so you can complete them before your appointment.

Your First Appointment

As soon as you walk through the door at our modern dental office, a member of our front desk team will greet you warmly. Once you’re checked in, feel free to help yourself to a complimentary beverage during your brief wait in our comfortable reception area.

Your first appointment at Edmond Dental begins with a dental exam and teeth cleaning by one of our skilled, experienced dental hygienists. She will ask you about any concerns you have, then check the condition of each tooth and note any issues in your digital patient record.

The next step is a thorough teeth cleaning to look for periodontal disease and remove all the plaque and tartar from your teeth. However, if we find signs of advanced gum disease, we may need to reschedule you for a more in-depth cleaning called scaling and root planing.

If you are coming to us as a first-time emergency patient, Dr. Tucker will perform a limited exam to diagnose the problem and provide the appropriate care.

Before You Leave Our Office

Based on the findings, your hygienist will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan to get your oral health back on track. We’ll work with you and schedule your treatment in a way that fits all your needs, including your budget. Before you leave, we will evaluate your dental insurance to give you an approximate estimate of what your out-of-pocket dental costs will be.

We look forward to meeting your family and welcoming you to Edmond Dental at Deer Creek!
