Your First Visit

Welcome to the world of outstanding oral health care at Upstate Oral Surgery & Dental Implants. Our goal is to help patients live happier, healthier lives by providing a wide range of oral surgery services to patients of all ages. The first visit is a great time for Dr. Curtis to get to know you and learn about your condition. Then, Dr. Curtis will explain your diagnosis and treatment options. In some cases, surgery can be performed the same day as a consultation, but this could change depending on a complex medical history or a more thorough treatment plan that requires additional appointments.

Our philosophy

What to Bring

On your visit, we recommend that you arrive at our Watertown, NY, office a few minutes early to check-in and complete some paperwork. A parent or legal guardian must be present for patients under 18 years of age during the consultation.

Please bring the following items with you to your consultation:

  • Your surgical referral slip and any X-rays (if possible).
  • A list of your current medications.
  • Completed necessary dental or medical insurance forms.

Anesthesia Options

Upstate Oral Surgery & Dental Implants offers both local and general anesthesia to help you feel comfortable and at ease during your treatment. During your consultation, Dr. Curtis will discuss your anesthesia options and will decide which one will be used during your procedure. This is also a good time to bring up any anxiety you are experiencing about treatment because we want to answer all of your questions and make you feel comfortable.
