    What Happens During Your Consultation

    Dr. Krajekian will perform a thorough physical inspection of your mouth, teeth, and jaw. Additional imaging such as CT scans may be taken in-office if needed for complex procedures.

    Appointment Duration

    Initial consultations typically last 15–30 minutes. This allows Dr. Krajekian to thoroughly evaluate your condition, explain your options, and answer all your questions.

    Will surgery happen the same day? Simple procedures may be performed immediately in some cases. However, complex cases are typically scheduled for a separate appointment.

    Preparation Tips

    Get Your Records Sent Ahead

    Ask your dentist to send X-rays and referral information to our office before your visit. This saves time and may reduce costs.

    Write Down Your Questions

    Prepare a list of questions about your condition, the procedure, recovery, and anything else you'd like to know.

    Bring a Companion

    If sedation is discussed, having someone with you can help you remember the information discussed and provide a ride home if a procedure is scheduled.

    Allow Adequate Time

    Initial consultations typically last 45-60 minutes. We want to ensure you have time to ask questions and feel comfortable with your treatment plan.

    Questions to Ask

    Your consultation is the perfect opportunity to get clarity on anything you're unsure about. Don't hesitate to ask:

    What exactly is my diagnosis?
    What are my treatment options?
    What are the risks and benefits?
    How long will recovery take?
    What anesthesia options are available?
    What will my out-of-pocket costs be?
    When can I return to work/normal activities?
    How many of these procedures have you performed?
