Yes, we're always happy to welcome new patients at Tend Dental Williamsburg! No matter how long it's been since your last dental appointment, our caring team is here to help you feel completely comfortable. We're dedicated to making every visit a positive experience for you. We pride ourselves on creating a judgment-free environment where every patient is treated with empathy and respect.

Your first visit will include a comprehensive exam, a detailed review of your oral health, and time to talk through any concerns or goals you have. We’ll make sure you feel informed, comfortable, and fully supported from the moment you walk in.

Call us at (917) 341-1637 . Please ensure you do so more than 48 hours prior to your appointment. We set aside that time specifically for you, and since our schedule is busy, we appreciate advance notice 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. 

Our goal is to make your first visit as comfortable and informative as possible. Here’s what it includes:

• A thorough oral exam to assess your teeth, gums, bite, and overall dental health
• Digital X-rays for a detailed look below the surface (with significantly lower radiation than traditional X-rays)
• A gentle, professional cleaning tailored to your needs
• A detailed conversation with your dentist, who will walk you through any findings, answer your questions, and create a treatment plan if needed

We will also review your dental history, discuss your goals (whether it’s improving your oral health or brightening your smile), and allow time for you to ask questions without feeling rushed.

The environment is designed to feel calm and soothing, so you can relax and actually enjoy taking care of your smile.

It's recommended that most patients schedule a cleaning and checkup every six months. This is crucial in helping to catch early signs of decay or gum disease before they become more serious or costly, providing preventive care that can help reduce the need for more invasive treatments over time.

In some cases, our dentists may advise patients to visit more frequently, especially if they have a history of gum disease, wear orthodontic appliances such as 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 everything looks great, cleanings help remove plaque and tartar that brushing and flossing alone can't remove, and they’re key to keeping your smile feeling fresh and looking its best.
