What to Expect at Your First Appointment

Waiting room and reception area at David P. Marion DDS PC.

The first thing you’ll notice when you walk through our doors is the peaceful and home-like ambiance of our office.

Stacy will warmly welcome you to our dental practice, provide you with a tablet to complete your documentation on, and explain the next steps. If you’ve already filled out our new patient forms, you can give them to her.

We keep soft music playing to help you relax. Our treatment rooms feature TVs on the ceilings that play soothing videos. We even have a massage dental chair that can help you deeply unwind before your procedure. For your comfort and convenience, we can provide you with a warm towel after teeth cleaning procedures, which can get a little messy.

Your Initial Consultation

Plan on spending an hour and a half in our office for your initial examination. You’ll learn from this experience that Dr. Marion is very thorough. Our dental assistant, Tracy, will accompany him during this exam. She takes notes while Dr. Marion chats with you. You’ll start by discussing things like your medical and dental history, your past dental experiences, and any concerns or questions you may have about your oral health or the appearance of your smile.

Next, Dr. Marion and Tracy will take photos of your teeth with an intraoral camera. Tracy will then take any necessary digital x-rays of your teeth. Dr. Marion will review the images with you and point out areas of interest or concern. Many of our current patients have commented that they found this part of the exam fascinating since they learned things about their oral health that they’d never been told about before.

After this comes the oral health evaluation. This part includes the following:

  • Oral cancer screening
  • Bite assessment
  • TMJ function evaluation
  • Periodontal exam
  • Dental exam

If necessary, Dr. Marion will scan your teeth to create study models that help him to better assess the function of your smile and identify areas that need treatment.

Dr. Marion will carefully evaluate all of the information collected during your dental exam. Hopefully there will be no major concerns, and your follow-up appointment will be for a cleaning and for him to explain to you what he has found about the health of your mouth. If there are some major treatment needs, he will want to take time go over those with you and your cleaning will be a separate appointment.

Smile Makeover Consultations

Are you interested in a cosmetic dental procedure or even a total smile makeover? Dr. Marion is happy to meet with you to discuss your smile goals. If you aren’t yet ready to commit to the entire comprehensive dental exam, however, you can call us to schedule a brief complimentary visit with Dr. Marion to find out if you are a candidate for cosmetic dentistry.

Dental Hygiene

Once you’ve had your comprehensive dental exam, we’ll get you set up for a professional dental cleaning with our hygienist and co-diagnostician, Kim. If Dr. Marion detects signs of gum disease or heavy dental calculus accumulation during your initial exam, then he may recommend you have a more intensive cleaning procedure. Kim is also qualified to provide this treatment which is called scaling and root planing (SRP).

Our Dental Technology

Dr. Marion’s office features almost entirely digital dentistry. We offer completely digital x-ray imaging and digital impression scanning, except where a traditional impression is necessary for fitting dentures. We also have 3D imaging and a remarkably accurate MoonRay 3D printer for dental appliances. This is advanced technology that’s not found in just any dental office; only a reported 15% of dentists nationwide are doing this kind of printing.

We welcome patients who may be nervous about dental treatment or who haven’t been to a dentist in a long time. If dentistry makes you anxious, Dr. Marion can prescribe a small dose of oral sedation to calm you down. Our practice has helped many patients conquer their fear of the dentist.

Call us to schedule a comprehensive exam where you can begin your journey to a healthier smile.

Testimonials

Dr Marion and his team are the nicest, most trustworthy people I have met. The service is great, they have a way to make you relaxed and trust them. They also treat you like family. Awesome dentist!!! 100% recommend Dr Marion!

Awa Patton

To say the least, Dr. Marion is hands down the best dentist I have encountered in all of my years. They know you by name and are very genuine. I am beyond impressed with Dr. Marion's care and extremely confident I have some of the best dental work in my mouth.

Christian Powers

From the first appointment and treatment I was amazed with passion and skill of Dr. Marion. Even local anesthesia is applied so gently and skillfully that you barely feel it. I had my entire bite realigned so all my teeth snap together tightly as never before. And I do not hide my smile anymore. Wish I had found this practice earlier.

Bohdan Prus

I have been a patient of Dr. Marion for ten years and I have referred all my friends and family to his office. He provides premium and prompt services every time!

Deon Washington

I was not an easy patient for Dr Marion ... lots of work needed to be done! Plus I’m a wimp with a horrible gag reflex. He and his staff have gone out of their way to make me comfortable, and he does an expert job, better than any other dentist I have ever worked with.

Cindy Robinson

Dr. Marion was highly recommended by a friend who also happens to be one of Dr. Marion's former dental school professors. I am so thankful to have a kind, skilled and compassionate provider for our dental care.

Barbara Hardin

I chose Dr. Marion's office because my Dad raves about Dr. Marion and his staff. I had to meet these people!! 🙂 They were very friendly and put me at ease. They explained everything and let me know what insurance would pay & what I would be responsible for before they did any work. The office is clean and I never have to wait long. I highly recommend them.

Tammy Stout


We thank you for your kind comments and for referring your friends.
