New Dental Patient Information St. Augustine
Experience Dentistry in a New Way
Total Dental Care: Tony Lee, DMD is unlike other practices in the St. Augustine area. Unlike corporate offices that move patients in and out quickly, we take our team to build relationships and listen to patients’ needs and concerns. Dr. Lee and our team want you and your family to feel at home here in our office, and it starts even before you arrive for your first appointment. To ensure you are fully prepared for your initial visit, we invite you to review the following information and call us with any questions.
Your First Visit
Our team makes every effort to ensure you receive ample time with Dr. Lee, so you can expect your first visit to take about one hour. We want to be able to carefully listen as you ask questions so that we can provide clarity and instruction without you feeling rushed.
During your first appointment, you will be escorted to a treatment room and undergo a comprehensive examination. This includes digital X-rays, which will help Dr. Lee better understand what is going on above and below the gumline. After meeting with our hygienist, you will see Dr. Lee who will perform his own examination while also reviewing your X-rays. It’s at this time that he will discuss his clinical findings with you before determining which type of cleaning you require.
This attention to detail and personalized approach allows for a more down-home, one-on-one style of appointment.
Patient Forms
Our new patient paperwork is available to fill out online so that you don’t have to worry about spending additional time in our waiting area. By filling out these forms before your appointment, you can expect a smoother check-in process when you arrive.
All you need to do is click the link below and start the process. You are welcome to call our office should you experience any issues while completing your information.
Dental Insurance
Our team works hard to provide the best possible experience for you and your family. Part of how we do this is by checking your dental insurance benefits before you come in for a visit. As an in-network dentist with Zelis and Connection, we negotiate terms and fees to ensure the lowest price for the services you receive. Dr. Lee even breaks down how insurance will be used to reduce your out-of-pocket expenses so that you are well-informed about the cost of your treatment.
Our In-House Discount Plan
If you pay for your dental care out of pocket, our In-House Discount Plan is a great way to minimize your costs. For just $100 a year, you can receive a 20% discount on any dental treatments you need. To learn more about our plan or to sign up, call our team or ask us about joining during your next appointment.
CareCredit Financing
Should we recommend a form of treatment that is not covered by your dental insurance plan, you can apply for CareCredit Financing. Offering low and no-interest payment plans, you can choose one that works best with your budget. Not only does this help you avoid paying the full amount upfront, but there are no surprise fees, so what you agree to when you sign up is what you will pay along the way.
