Timely Appointments

At SmileMcLean Dentistry, we understand that a timely appointment is crucial for providing the best possible dental care for your child. As parents, you have busy schedules, and we recognize how important it is to ensure that your child’s dental care is both convenient and timely. That's why we prioritize on-time appointments for all of our pediatric patients. When you visit SmileMcLean Dentistry, you can trust that your child will be seen promptly, without unnecessary delays.

Dr. Neda Etessam, DDS, and our dedicated team are committed to creating a smooth, efficient, and pleasant experience for both children and parents. In this article, we will explore the importance of timely appointments, how we ensure on-time visits and the benefits this offers for your child’s dental care.

What Does "Timely Appointments" Mean?

A timely appointment in pediatric dentistry refers to a dental visit where children are seen promptly at the scheduled time, with minimal wait, and without unnecessary delays. When it comes to children's dental care, timely appointments are crucial for various reasons, such as ensuring that treatments and check-ups are completed on time, preventing the development of dental problems, and maintaining a positive dental experience for children.

At SmileMcLean Dentistry, we make every effort to respect your time and the time of your child by adhering to the scheduled appointment times. Our goal is to ensure that you don’t have to wait long in the waiting room and that your child receives the care they need when they need it. Contact us to learn more.

How SmileMcLean Dentistry Ensures On-Time Appointments

At SmileMcLean Dentistry, we have developed several practices to ensure that every appointment runs smoothly and on schedule:

Efficient Scheduling System

Our scheduling system is designed to be efficient and flexible, ensuring that appointments are properly spaced to allow for the appropriate amount of time with each patient. We also send appointment reminders via email or text to help you stay on top of your child's upcoming visits, making it easier for you to plan your schedule.

Adequate Time for Each Appointment

We understand that every child is unique and may require different amounts of time for their dental visit. Whether it’s a routine check-up, a cleaning, or a more complex treatment, we allocate the right amount of time for each patient. This ensures that we never rush through appointments and that we can give each child the care and attention they deserve, all while keeping things on schedule.

Streamlined Office Flow

Our team is highly trained to ensure that the office runs smoothly and efficiently. From the moment you check in to when your child is seen by Dr. Neda Etessam, we work together to ensure minimal wait times. We also keep track of appointments throughout the day to ensure that each patient is seen at their scheduled time, and if there are any delays, we communicate them promptly.

Focusing on Preventive Care

Preventive care plays a big part in maintaining on-time appointments. By focusing on preventive dental measures, such as cleanings, fluoride treatments, and early cavity detection, we can address issues before they require more complex procedures that could take longer or necessitate additional visits.

Flexible Appointment Options

We know that life can get busy. If your child’s appointment needs to be rescheduled, we work with you to find a time that fits your schedule. We offer convenient hours and flexible options, including evening and weekend appointments, to make it easier for families to keep their children’s dental care on track.

By choosing SmileMcLean Dentistry, you are prioritizing not only your child’s dental care but also their overall well-being. Timely appointments come with numerous benefits, such as:

  • Better preventive care: Timely check-ups help prevent cavities and other dental issues by providing consistent monitoring of oral health.
