New Patients

Welcome New Patients

At Calgary Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, we understand that visiting a surgeon for the first time can feel overwhelming.

Our goal is to make your experience as comfortable, stress-free, and informative as possible. Whether you’re bringing in your child, teenager, or preparing for your own procedure, we are here to guide you every step of the way.

What to Expect on Your First Visit

Your first appointment will typically involve a consultation where we discuss your medical history, evaluate your needs, and develop a personalized treatment plan.

Depending on your case, diagnostic imaging (such as X-rays or 3D scans) may be performed. This visit is an opportunity for you to ask questions, understand the procedure, and feel confident moving forward.

For Children

We understand that children may feel especially anxious about visiting an oral surgeon.

Our team is experienced in working with young patients, ensuring a gentle, friendly approach to make them feel at ease. Parents are required to accompany their child throughout the appointment, and we explain each step in simple, reassuring language.

If anesthesia is required, we will thoroughly discuss the process and ensure your child’s comfort and safety.

For Teens

Many teenagers visit us for procedures like wisdom teeth removal or corrective jaw surgery.

We take the time to explain the treatment in a way that both teens and parents can understand, addressing any concerns about recovery, anesthesia, or post-operative care.

We encourage teens to ask questions and take an active role in their oral health journey.

For Adults

Whether you’re visiting us for dental implants, TMJ treatment, or other surgical procedures, we recognize that adults may also experience anxiety about surgery.

Our team provides detailed information about the procedure, anesthesia options, and recovery process to help you feel prepared and confident.

We prioritize clear communication and patient comfort, ensuring a supportive environment throughout your care.
