Dental Follow Up

Dental follow ups are appointments made with our dentist, Dr. Alvarez, after a dental procedure.  The aim of the follow up is to guarantee the treatment or procedure served the intended purpose.  If any complications arise, they will be identified and addressed during the dental follow up.  The dental follow up comprises the final component of the overarching dental treatment plan.  It is during this visit that the dentist analyzes the results of the dental procedure to gauge if the treatment is successful or failed to meet expectations. 

The dental follow up consultation involves a thorough analysis of the patient’s recovery.  The consultation ensures the treatment is effective, provides an opportunity to identify complications and also perform additional treatment.  If any adjustments are necessary, Dr. Alvarez will explain them to you using plain terms you can understand without using complex dental industry jargon.  Your consultation is also an opportunity to ask questions you have about your oral health and dental procedures.
