New patient form

Welcome to Pickering Square Dental. Completing the new patient form before your visit gives the dental team time to understand your contact information, health history, medications, allergies, dental concerns, and benefit details.

Submit the online form before your visit. If you choose the paper PDF, bring the completed copy to the office. Do not email health information to the general office address unless staff specifically instruct you to use an approved secure method.

Bring identification, your coverage information, and a medication list. If you choose the paper PDF, bring the completed copy too. If you use an inhaler, glucose monitor, mobility aid, communication device, or medication that may be needed during the visit, bring it as directed by your healthcare professional.

Ask the office if recent dental records or X-rays should be transferred before the appointment. New diagnostic images are recommended only when the dentist determines they are needed based on your history, examination, and the information already available.

A conversation, then an examination

The first visit usually begins with a conversation about your goals and concerns, a health-history review, an examination, diagnostic records when indicated, and a discussion of findings.

Treatment is not assumed to begin immediately

Urgent needs, the complexity of care, available time, and informed consent can affect what is completed at the initial visit.

Consent, interpreting, and support needs

Parents or legal guardians should contact the office about consent and documentation for a child or dependent adult. Interpreting, accessibility, and support-person needs are easier to coordinate when the office knows in advance.
