Patient Information

Welcome, and thank you for choosing McKinney Dental as your dental health provider.  Our goal is to guide our patients along a path of optimal dental health by delivering the highest level of care in a comfortable, friendly, and safe environment.  We encourage you to ask questions regarding your treatment and be involved in your treatment decisions.  This includes your treatment plan and our financial policy.

First Visit

Your oral health is very important to us and we want to make sure all your concerns and questions are answered.  Your first visit will be very detailed and consist of a comprehensive exam, updating x-rays, oral cancer screening, checking the health of your gums, and charting any pre-existing restorations you may have.  After your comprehensive exam appointment with Dr. McKinney, you will be scheduled for a dental hygiene assessment appointment with one of our highly skilled dental hygienists.
