APPOINTMENTS

We appreciate the confidence you have expressed in us by making an appointment at little smiles Dentistry for Children. We look forward to meeting you and your child. To help us make your visit as pleasant as possible we ask you to adhere to a few rules, established for your convenience and the courtesy of other patients.

A member of our staff will call to confirm your appointment 48 hours in advance. You must confirm your appointment, by noon of the preceding day to retain your scheduled appointment.

Patients who miss two confirmed appointments will not be rescheduled.

Families with two or more children who miss a confirmed appointment will not be scheduled together for future appointments.

Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian at all times in our office. We cannot administer treatment without consent from the parent or legal guardian.

We will make every effort to accommodate after school appointments, for school aged children, as available. In the event we cannot schedule your child's appointment after school, we will provide a written note for school administration.

To assist us in providing prompt service for you, we ask new patients to arrive 15 minutes prior to their scheduled appointment. Existing patients should arrive 10 minutes prior to their appointment to allow time to update paperwork.

To help us maintain an "on-time" schedule, patients who arrive more than 10 minutes after their appointment will be seen as the schedule permits.

We strive to schedule the correct amount of time for each patient. However, please remember that our goal is to provide individual attention to each child. Sometimes treatments extend longer than anticipated, causing us to fall behind in our schedule. In such case, we will offer you the option to reschedule your appointment.
