If you’re a new patient here at Fogel Dental, welcome! We look forward to meeting you
at your first appointment.

We know that a dental visit with a new practice may make a few of our guests feel a little nervous. Please allow us to put you at ease! It’s our aim to make your first visit as
comfortable as possible. Here’s a rough outline of what you can expect during your appointment with your Fogel Dental team:

• Upon arrival, you’ll check in with Patty at the front desk.

• She will ask you for your ID and dental insurance information. Additionally, we have a
few forms for you to fill out. For your convenience, you can access those forms on
our website if you’d like to fill them out ahead of time:

• You’ll be given a brief tour of the office and taken to an area where we’ll take x-rays.

• Dr. Fogel together with Thuy, will complete a thorough and gentle exam. They will
review any concerns you have and will recommend treatment based on your exam and
x-rays. Depending on your unique situation, oral health, and questions and concerns,
this may include same-day treatment recommendations (such as filling a cavity), or
long-term treatment planning for restorative or cosmetic procedures.

• If you’ve scheduled a cleaning with your initial appointment, Amanda will complete this at this time. She may also recommend some at-home steps you can take to maintain a healthy mouth!

• Finally, you’ll be led back to the front desk to check out and to schedule your next
appointment!

It’s our pleasure to make sure regular hygiene appointments with our Bourbonnais
dental team are friendly, comfortable, and gentle! Do you have any questions regarding
your upcoming visit with Bourbonnais dentist, Dr. Fogel? Please feel free to call us at 815-933-5173.
