We will schedule your appointment as promptly as possible. If you have pain or an emergency situation, every attempt will be made to see you that day. We try our best to stay on schedule to minimize your waiting. Various circumstances may lengthen the time allocated for a procedure. Emergency cases can also arise and cause delays. We appreciate your understanding and patience.
If you have an after-hours emergency, you can reach Dr. Wiseman by calling our office and following the directions on our voice message.
Scheduling
Your initial appointment will consist of a consultation where we will perform a few simple tests, radiographs, and possibly a CBCT Scan if needed to confirm the recommended treatment. We will thoroughly explain your diagnosis and treatment options if needed. Treatment can generally be done on the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan may require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.
Your First Visit
Due to the ongoing Covid-19 concerns, we continue to lead our peers in the cleanliness stage. We use masks for patients and staff, and screen patients and staff for body temperature and symptoms before treatment. We thoroughly wipe down treatment rooms, check-in, and check-out areas, as well as pens, doorknobs, or any other potential transmission sites. We email all new patients our office COVID-19 guidance in addition to your Online patient Registration email.

What To Bring
Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation:
- Your referral slip and any X-rays if applicable.
- A list of medications you are presently taking.
- If you have medical or dental insurance, bring the necessary completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
IMPORTANT: A parent or guardian must accompany all patients under 18 at the consultation visit.
Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves, history of infective endocarditis, congenital heart disease, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.) or require medication prior to dental cleanings (i.e antibiotics, for pre-med.) If possible, bring a list of your medications with you to the consultation.
If you have taken premedication prior to dental visits for your joint replacement surgery in the past, read HERE and HERE about why this is no longer necessary. Consult with your orthopedic surgeon if you require premedication or have questions about this topic.
X-RAYS
If your previous dentist has taken recent x-rays (within 6-months), you may request that they email them to our office. We can also call your dentist to request on your behalf. In some cases, we will need to take additional x-rays at our office.
