New patient dental assessment in Tonbridge
New Patient Assessment
We are delighted to have you as a new patient, and we are committed to providing you with excellent oral care!
During your initial visit, our dental team will begin by gathering relevant personal information and your dental history. We will ask about your medical history, current medications, and any dental concerns or issues you may be experiencing. Providing us with this information helps us understand your overall health and any factors that may impact your dental care.

Your first visit, step by step
Your new patient assessment takes about 45 minutes, so there's time to talk before anything starts. If it's been a while since you saw a dentist, you're very welcome here. There's no judgement, just a fresh start.
- A chat first. We go through your medical history, any medication, and what you'd like from your teeth. If you're nervous, tell us and we'll go at your pace.
- A full examination. We check every tooth, your gums, your bite and the soft tissues of your mouth, including an oral cancer screening.
- X-rays if needed. We only take the images we need, on site, and show you them on screen.
- Your plan and prices. You leave with a clear, written treatment plan and the cost of each option, so there are no surprises.
Who you'll see
You'll see one of our dentists, led by Dr Pieter Claassen, who has looked after Tonbridge patients since 2004.
Nervous about your first visit?
Many of our new patients haven't been to a dentist in years because of anxiety. We'll explain everything before we do it, and you can stop at any time. For very anxious patients we also offer sedation.
