Welcome to the Prestige Periodontal and Dental Implant Surgery, PLLC patient information page for our practice in Houston, TX.

New Patients
New patients can expect to meet the staff on your first visit. We’ll also give you a quick tour of our office so you can learn more about us. This is the perfect time to get acquainted with our staff and discuss treatment options with the doctor. A first visit can take up to an hour, depending on whether you are coming in just for a consultation or for treatment. We can provide a time estimate before your arrival. For your first appointment, please bring insurance information, referral documents, and any X-rays taken at another practice.
Consultations
If it’s your first time with us, our periodontist will review referral materials from your general dentist, take digital X-rays, and learn more about your oral health. This will help us get a good overview of your current needs, which will make planning any future treatment easier.
Each of our patients receives a customized treatment plan based on the doctor’s diagnosis. We will sit down and talk with you about what we find in our examination and evaluation, and let you know why we are recommending any treatments. This is a great time for you to ask us questions and get clarification about anything you are unsure of. Our goal is always to make sure the patient is a full participant in his or her own treatment, so we work hard to clarify anything before moving forward with the next appointment.
