Deborah Gennero DDS
New Patient Experience
Choosing a new dentist is an important decision, and at Dr. Deborah Gennero’s office, we want your first visit to feel welcoming, comfortable, and personalized. Whether you’re scheduling a comprehensive dental evaluation, a cosmetic consultation, or bringing your child for their first dental experience, our team is committed to providing exceptional care tailored to your unique needs and goals.
Every new patient appointment is designed to give us a complete understanding of your oral health, smile goals, and any concerns you may have. Through a comprehensive evaluation and thoughtful discussion, Dr. Gennero develops a personalized treatment plan focused on long-term health, function, comfort, and beautiful, lasting results.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
Comprehensive New Patient Appointments
Our comprehensive adult new patient appointments are designed to give both you and Dr. Deborah Gennero a full understanding of your oral health and treatment needs. During this visit, we take the time to evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral condition using advanced digital technology and detailed diagnostics.
Your new patient appointment may include:
If periodontal therapy is not recommended as part of your treatment plan, your visit will also include a professional dental cleaning with our hygienist. This allows many patients to complete both their evaluation and preventive care in one convenient appointment.
Consultation Appointments
Focused Conversations
For patients seeking a second opinion, cosmetic consultation, or specific treatment discussion, consultation appointments offer a focused and efficient way to begin. These visits are designed to address your primary concerns, answer questions, and provide professional recommendations without the full diagnostics of a comprehensive exam.
Consultation appointments typically include:
This appointment is ideal for patients exploring cosmetic dentistry, TMJ treatment, airway concerns, orthodontics, or restorative options.
Happy Visits
For young children visiting the dentist for the first time, we offer a gentle introductory appointment called a Happy Visit. The goal is simple: create comfort, familiarity, and trust.
During a Happy Visit, we invite your child to:
If your child feels comfortable enough to let us take a quick look with a mirror or toothbrush, that’s wonderful. If not, that’s perfectly okay—we can save that for the next visit. Building confidence comes first.
Creating Positive First Experiences
Child Visits
For children who are already comfortable visiting the dentist, our new patient appointments are designed to provide a thorough evaluation while creating a positive, encouraging experience. Dr. Gennero and our team take the time to help each child feel at ease while assessing their oral health, growth, and development.
Depending on your child’s age and individual needs, the appointment may include:
If your child is visiting for a specific concern—such as tooth pain, injury, or another dental issue—the appointment will focus on diagnosing the problem, discussing treatment options, and developing the most appropriate plan of care. Our goal is to make every visit comfortable, educational, and tailored to your child’s individual needs while building healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Insurance & Financial Information
Our team is happy to help you understand your insurance benefits and treatment options. Lori, our insurance specialist and patient care coordinator, works closely with patients to maximize benefits and provide financial clarity before treatment begins.
We believe informed patients make confident decisions.
New Patient Forms
Save Time Before Your Appointment
To help your visit run smoothly, we ask all new patients to complete their paperwork before arriving for their appointment. Completing forms in advance allows our team to review your health history, understand your concerns, and prepare for your visit.
