New Dental Patient Information Wayne
A New Start for Your Smile
Main Line Dental Group has been welcoming new patients through our doors since 1985, so we know a thing or two about helping people feel right at home! To make sure you’re prepared for your initial visit, you’ll find plenty of information below that covers the basics. Of course, if there is anything you’d like to ask us, don’t hesitate to give our team in Wayne a call.
Your First Visit
Your initial appointment will be a very thorough visit, in most cases requiring a full hour and a half of time. We will collect and review information relating to your medical history and past dental history as well as all pertinent information relating to the problem or reason that prompted your visit. In addition, you will receive a thorough examination of your oral hard and soft tissues, an examination and assessment of your periodontal health, a thorough examination for dental caries (decay), and an evaluation of your existing restorative dentistry.
Finally, a functional assessment of your occlusion (bite) and TMJ will be made. Occasionally, as in the case of relatively healthy individuals, certain treatments can often be accomplished at this initial consultation visit. However, in the case of persons with either a complex medical history or those requiring a comprehensive treatment plan, a second appointment will be required to either thoroughly review the diagnosis and proposed treatment plan or to begin treatment.
What To Bring To Your Appointment
Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:
- X-rays (if available)
- A list of your current medications
- If you have medical or dental insurance, bring the necessary policy information with you. This will save time and allow us to help submit any claims on your behalf.
- Please fill out new patient registration forms before arriving to your appointment. See below!

Dental Insurance
Main Line Dental Group understands that many patients rely on their dental insurance to afford the treatments they need, which is why we’re happy to accept many popular plans from the leading providers. We can go over your coverage with you and even handle the claim on your behalf to help you maximize your benefits. To learn more, just give us a call with your membership information handy.
In-House Lab
Very few dental offices in all of the US (and no others in the Main Line area) have their own in-house dental lab like we do. This means we’re able to make and control every little detail when it comes to the quality of restorations like crowns, bridges, veneers, dentures, and more. Our master technicians only work with our dentists and team, meaning we’re able to be efficient while also delivering a level of quality you won’t see anywhere else.
