New Patient Information at Our Cave Creek Dentist Office

Welcome! If you're looking for new patient information at our Cave Creek dentist office, you've come to the right page. Starting with a new dental team can feel like a lot, so we put together this guide to help you feel ready before you ever walk through our door. We accept a wide range of dental insurance plans, and for patients without coverage, we offer an in-house Dental Savings Plan that keeps care affordable. Just as important, our neighbors tell us they feel genuinely welcomed here, and that warm, neighborly care is something our whole team works hard to keep up at every visit.

01 — YOUR FIRST VISIT

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Your first visit is really about getting to know each other. Dr. Madison Kapers and the team will review your health history, take any needed X-rays, and do a thorough exam of your teeth and gums. We'll talk through what we find in plain, easy-to-understand terms, no confusing jargon, and go over any recommended next steps together. If you have questions about cost or treatment options, this is the time to ask. Patients often tell us how much they appreciate that our team takes time to explain everything clearly.

What to Bring to Your Appointment

To make your visit go smoothly, please bring:

  • A photo ID
  • Your dental insurance card, if you have one
  • Completed new patient forms (or arrive a few minutes early to fill them out)
  • A list of any medications you currently take
  • Your previous dentist's contact information, if you're transferring records
