First Visit
To prepare you for your first visit at our office, here is some pertinent information.
If your health requires that you take a prophylactic antibiotic before your dental procedures, it would be preferable to advise us before hand. Dr Audet will be able to write you’re a prescription, if needed.
Firstly, if you take medication regularly, please bring your medication list with you. If you have reading glasses, bring them with you because you will have a medical questionnaire to fill out.
To make your first visit more complete, our protocol includes :
Inscription and opening of your file :
