Westshore Endodontics | Pre-med Antibiotics

Patient Information

Your initial appointment will begin with a thorough examination and consultation to explain your diagnosis and treatment options. In most cases, treatment can be performed on the same day as the consultation (unless you or your general dentist specifically requested only a consultation).

Please provide the following information at your initial appointment:

1 A list of any medications you take.
2 The referral slip and any x-rays that may have been provided by your general dentist.
3 Please bring all of your dental insurance information, if applicable.
4 If you are a new patient to us, or have not seen us in over a year, please complete the new patient paperwork. You will need to print it and bring it along to your appointment. If you have any questions regarding this paperwork, please leave it blank until your appointment. We will be happy to help you fully complete the required paperwork at check-in

Please alert our staff if you have a significant medical condition or allergy that may be of concern prior to treatment.

These include, but are not limited to:

Diabetes
High Blood Pressure
Artificial Heart Valve and Joints
Prescription Blood Thinners

Please also inform us if you require any pre-med antibiotics prior to dental treatments as recommended by your dentist or physician.

Scheduling

We will schedule your appointment as promptly as possible. If you have pain or an emergency situation, every attempt will be made to see you that day.

We try our best to stay on schedule to minimize your waiting. Due to the fact our doctors provide many types of endodontic services, various circumstances may lengthen the time allocated for a procedure. Emergency cases can also arise and cause delays. We appreciate your understanding and patience.

We deliver the finest care at the most reasonable cost to our patients; therefore, payment and insurance co-payments are due at the time services are rendered.

For your convenience, we accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express, cash, and checks. We also accept Care Credit as payment for services.

We participate with Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Michigan and are a PPO provider with Delta Dental.

We do our best to estimate your portion; however, we cannot be absolutely certain what your insurance company will pay until the payment has been received.
