Your First Visit

Dentistry at Jackson Family Dentistry in Downers Grove, IL

What to Expect From Dental Appointments at Jackson Family Dentistry

At Jackson Family Dentistry, your first visit is more than just a check-up—it’s the beginning of a relationship built on trust, comfort, and personalized care. Dr. Jackson dedicates time to understanding your complete health picture by reviewing your medical and dental history, discussing any concerns, and learning about your goals for your smile.

 

After this conversation, we will conduct a comprehensive dental exam to evaluate your oral health thoroughly. This includes a full assessment of your teeth, gums, bite alignment, jaw joint (TMJ), and surrounding soft tissues. We also perform an oral cancer screening, take any necessary digital X-rays and high-resolution photographs, and complete an advanced iTero Wellness Scan. This 3D scan offers a detailed digital model of your teeth and bite, helping us monitor changes over time and detect issues early—before they become bigger problems.

 

To help you truly understand your oral health, we use a state-of-the-art intraoral camera to give you a real-time tour of your mouth. The images are displayed on a large screen, allowing you to see exactly what we see. Our patients love how interactive and informative this experience is—it’s like a window into your dental health.

 

From start to finish, your first visit is designed to give you clarity, confidence, and a strong foundation for long-term care.

 

To help your visit go as smoothly as possible, please come prepared with the following information:

  1. A list of any or all medication that you’re presently prescribed and taking
  2. Your dental insurance information
  3. Patient forms filled out

 

Having this prepared and ready for your appointment will save you time and allow us to make your first visit the very best experience.
