Your First Visit

At Grasslands Dental Care, we want your first visit to be the first of many.

It's hard to believe we've been serving the Kamloops community for more than 25 years!

We understand that your first visit can be overwhelming which is why if there's anything we can do to make it more relaxed or stress-free – just ask.

Our goal is to provide you and your family with the best possible dental care in a warm caring environment.

We want to give you the tools to prevent dental disease and aim to be a place that you and your kids enjoy coming to visit.

What we'll do at your first appointment

Except in the case of an emergency, your first appointment will be a lot like you might expect. We'll evaluate:

• Gums and Oral Tissues
• Bones of the Jaw
• Tightness of Teeth
• Your Bite
• Position of the Teeth
• General Health

• Home Care Techniques
• Oral Habits
• Probable Causes of Disease
• X-Rays
• Shape, Colour & Condition of Teeth
• Possible Cleaning

Your Consultation

At Grasslands Dental Care, making sure you understand the state of your oral health is our number one priority. The more you understand the better able you'll be to make informed decisions about your ongoing oral health.

That's why we often recommend a separate, private consultation where we can review x-rays and other findings as well as walk you through your options if more than one method of treatment is required. Of course, an estimate of the fee for any service will also be given at this appointment.

Ask Away!

We strive to have the best communication possible with our patients. We will do our best to keep you fully informed about your oral health, your dental treatment options, and your financial responsibilities. If you ever have any questions feel free to ask Dr. Oppenheim or any of our staff members.

Our Financial Policy

At Grasslands Dental Care we make it our policy to prepare a clear and simple estimate of the costs associated with any treatment we recommend. This way, you know exactly what to expect and how much it will cost. No surprises.

We require payment at the end of your appointment. While we accept most dental plans, it's important to check that we accept yours prior to your appointment. Also, some dental plans have been reducing the amount of coverage they provide so it's always a good idea to check in with them and make sure your services are covered. Grasslands Dental Care is not responsible for any charges not covered by your dental plan.
