    What to Bring to Your First Visit

    To help your first appointment go smoothly, please bring a few basic items with you. If you schedule online, Global Smiles Dental may send a text message with a secure link to complete your paperwork before your visit. Completing your forms ahead of time can help speed up check-in, but it is not required. If you prefer to complete paperwork at the office, our team can help when you arrive.

    • A photo ID

    • Your dental insurance card, if you have one

    • Medicaid card, if applicable

    • A list of current medications

    • Any recent dental X-rays, if available

    • Information about your dental concerns, pain, or treatment goals

    • A parent or legal guardian for patients under 18

    Online Forms Before Your Visit

    Global Smiles Dental uses NexHealth for online scheduling and digital paperwork. After scheduling, you may receive a text message with a link to complete your forms before your appointment. This helps our team review your information ahead of time and can make your visit faster and easier.

    Prefer Paperwork at the Office?

    No problem. If you would rather complete forms in person, please arrive a little early so our team can help you get checked in before your appointment.

    What to Expect as a New Patient

    Your first visit is designed to help our team understand your oral health, answer your questions, and recommend care that fits your needs.

    Global360 May Be a Good Option If You:

    • Do not currently have dental insurance
    • Want two exams and two regular cleanings included each year
    • Prefer a simple yearly membership instead of insurance paperwork
    • Want savings on many additional dental treatments
    • Have family members who also need routine dental care

    Check In and Review Your Information

    When you arrive, our team will confirm your paperwork, insurance information, medical history, medications, and reason for visit. If you completed your forms online before arriving, check-in is usually faster.

    Exam and Digital X-Rays

    Your visit may include a dental exam, digital X-rays, photos, or other diagnostic records depending on your needs. These help our doctors evaluate your teeth, gums, bite, existing dental work, and any areas of concern.

    Clear Explanation of Your Options

    After your exam, our team will explain what we find, review treatment options if needed, and answer your questions. We want you to understand your care before making decisions.

    Insurance and Payment Review

    If treatment is recommended, our team can review estimated insurance benefits, out-of-pocket costs, financing options, and available payment choices before care begins.

    Next Steps for Your Care

    Depending on your visit, we may complete treatment the same day, schedule your cleaning, plan future care, or help you book with the right provider for your needs.
