Patient Registration
Faculty Dental Practice is committed to comprehensive restorative and preventive care. Because our dentists are full time faculty at the University of Florida College of Dentistry, they have many commitments in addition to providing oral health care to the public. It is important, therefore, that your schedule coordinates with your personal doctor, as each doctor practices a limited amount of time per week on designated days and times.
Simply call 352-273-7950 to schedule an appointment to become established as a patient in Faculty Practice.
You will be scheduled with one of our highly qualified dental care professionals based on your stated concerns and dental needs and the appointment times that are most convenient for you. Your first appointment can generally be arranged within a week or two.
Once a convenient appointment time is set and time permits, we will mail you a packet of information about our practice, registration forms, and a medical history health form. Please complete the forms and return by mail or bring with you to your first appointment.
Your First Visit
Our clinic is located in D1-11 on the first floor of the Dental Sciences Building, directly inside the West Entrance. Your first visit will be to meet and get acquainted with your personal dentist. This visit will be for consultation and evaluation only and will begin the process of treatment planning to outline and prioritize the dental procedures recommended to restore and maintain your optimal oral health.
At your initial visit to our office, we will review your medical and dental health history, perform a blood pressure and oral cancer screening and complete a dental evaluation. If diagnostic radiographs have been taken and if time allows, we will discuss our findings and diagnosis and establish a treatment plan designed to meet your individual needs and concerns.
Subsequent appointments will be scheduled for you based on the final treatment plan you and your personal dentist establish.
If you require a specialist, the initial visit will vary according to your individual needs and the needs of that specialty.
