New Pediatric Dental Patient Information – Waco, TX & Bellmead, TX
A Great Beginning for a Great Smile
Dr. Blackwelder, Dr. Piedra, Dr. Olson, and our team are all excited to meet you and your child so we can welcome you into our dental family, and we want you to feel right at home starting at your first visit! That’s why we’ve included plenty of helpful information below that covers everything you should expect. After reading over this page, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch with our team.
Your First Visit
Our office takes care of infants, toddlers, children, teens, and kids with special needs, so you can imagine that no two initial visits are exactly alike. The primary goal is for our team to get to know you, your child, and make sure they feel comfortable here. We’ll perform a gentle exam and discuss our findings with you so you know as much as we do about your child’s oral health. For older children, we can take X-rays and provide a professional cleaning and fluoride treatment to ensure their teeth stay strong between appointments.
Patient Forms
Why stress by trying to fill out our forms while keeping an eye on your child in our reception/play area when you don’t have to? Instead, you can take care of them right now! Just download our forms, fill in your information, and remember to bring them to your child’s appointment. This will enable us to check you in immediately!
Dental Insurance
Brazos Kids Dental is an in-network provider with the majority of PPO plans, so more likely than not, we’ll be able to maximize your benefits. Just give us a call to go over your policy, and we can let you know how you’ll be covered ahead of your child’s visit.
CareCredit Financing
Don’t have insurance? CareCredit makes it easy to sign up for a payment plan to break up your child’s dental care costs into small chunks, and most feature little to no interest. You can find and qualify for a plan right now through our website in a matter of minutes, and you won’t have to deal with any hidden fees, surprise charges, or prepayment penalties.
