New Patients

Osborne Family Dental is a private practice, meaning it is dedicated to a family of patients who have established themselves as patients of record with our office.

We are currently accepting new patients!

New patients are admitted into our practice in the following ways:

1. New Patient Appointments: These appointments are scheduled in our hygiene department and involve a thorough initial examination conducted by one of our hygienists as well as Dr. Osborne. It normally involves a review of your medical history, comprehensive radiographs, intra-oral photographs, a thorough periodontal assessment, a temporomandibular joint exam, oral cancer screening, an occlusion evaluation (your bite), and a thorough examination of your teeth and oral soft tissues. Most importantly, it involves a question and answer session between you and the doctor. During this time, Dr. Osborne will discuss with you your goals, desires, and expectations regarding your dental care. He will also summarize his findings with you and review any concerns he thinks may need addressed. If desired, you will also be afforded the opportunity to discuss financial issues with our designated financial coordinator. In the case where needs may be extensive, Dr. Osborne may offer a separate consultative session so sufficient time is available to discuss options and answer your questions fully, without time constraints. Family members or friends are welcomed. In most cases, you will not receive a dental cleaning at this appointment. (See FAQ section).

2. Consultations / Second Opinions:

These appointments are scheduled for people who would like to see the office, meet the doctor, and perhaps ask questions about a specific concern before deciding whether or not to become a patient with our office. These also serve to provide second opinions regarding recommendations made by another dentist. We think it is entirely reasonable that you might wish to meet the doctor and his staff, and see the facility before committing to us as your new home for dental care. In order to join our practice, consultations must be followed up with a new patient appointment.

3. Emergency or Urgent Care Appointments: If you are not a member of our practice and wish to be seen due to a dental emergency or urgent dental problem we encourage you to call us. In cases of true emergencies, you will be seen promptly. We will perform a limited exam that will address your issue of concern, performing any diagnostic procedures necessary to arrive at a treatment recommendation. Urgent treatment can progress as soon as possible, but these patients are also required to complete a new patient appointment in order to join our practice.
