-
What should I expect during my first visit?
Your first visit with our dental team is designed to be warm and welcoming, while providing a comprehensive overview of your oral health. Here’s what it includes:
- A complete dental exam to evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, and overall oral health
- Digital X-rays provide a detailed view beneath the surface of your teeth and gums with considerably less radiation than traditional X-rays
- A gentle, professional teeth cleaning tailored to your unique needs
- A one-on-one conversation with your dentist, who will walk you through any findings, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan if needed
We’ll also review your dental history, talk about your goals (whether it’s improving your oral health or brightening your smile), and give you time to ask questions without feeling rushed.
The environment is designed to feel calm and soothing, allowing you to relax and truly enjoy taking care of your smile.
-
How do I cancel or reschedule my appointment?
If you need to change your appointment time for any reason, please call us at (646) 503-6066 . We kindly ask that you do so more than 48 hours before your appointment time. We reserve that time specifically for you, and our appointments are in high demand, so we appreciate as much notice as possible if you need to reschedule.
You can also log into your profile on the Tend app to make any changes needed, including cancelling and rescheduling.
-
How often should I come to Tend Dental Chelsea for a dental cleaning?
We recommend coming in for a cleaning and checkup every six months, which is the standard for most patients. These regular visits help us catch small issues like early signs of decay or gum disease before they become more serious or expensive to treat.
However, some patients may need to come in more frequently, especially if they have a history of gum disease, wear orthodontic appliances like aligners, or are more prone to plaque buildup. Your dentist will work with you to create a personalized care plan based on your needs, so you’re always getting the right level of care at the right time.
Even if your dentist hasn't noted any oral health issues, dental cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can't remove. They're a simple way to keep your smile feeling fresh and looking its best.
