Your First Visit

Your First Round at The Dental Bar

Welcome to Aurora’s Hidden Gem

It starts long before you sit in the chair.

Maybe you’ve had dentists rush you before. Maybe you’ve felt unseen or unheard. Here, we slow everything down. When you arrive, you’re guided to a private suite already prepared for you: blanket folded, headphones waiting, your favorite show queued up. 

The calm is intentional, designed to help you feel safe, grounded, and cared for.

We want the dentist to be something you look forward to!

The Dental Bar grew out of a quiet rebellion against bright lights and sterile waiting rooms. At our office, the first thing we hand you is a drink menu, not a clipboard. Conversation feels unhurried, direction is clear, and the space itself invites you to linger. 

The Flow of Your First Visit

Check In & Settle Down

We don’t do fish tanks in the lobby or an awkward waiting room with six-month-old magazines. Pick a mocktail, hot coffee, or cold brew from our lounge menu and settle in. 

Check In & Settle Down

Getting to Know You

You’ll meet one of our doctors, and we’ll talk about what brought you here, any health concerns you have, what your “dream smile” looks like, and if anything makes you nervous about the chair.

Getting to Know You

Exam & Cleaning

Digital X-rays, photos, a full 1.5-hour exam, plus a cleaning if you’re due. With Pearl AI, your X-rays are highlighted and explained in real time so you can see cavities, cracks, or changes right alongside us- no more politely nodding along, looking at grey smudges on a screen.

Exam & Cleaning

Your Treatment Plan

We lay out your options and explain exactly what’s a must, and what’s elective. We also collaborate with you to create a step-by-step treatment plan tailored to bring your smile back to full health.

Your Treatment Plan

Closing The Tab

Insurance? Covered. Membership plan? We’ll show you the savings. CareCredit? Easy to set up. We’ll break down the cost so there are no surprise bills weeks later.

Anxiety-Free Dentistry

Your Fear is Real. So Are Our Solutions

You don’t have to white-knuckle your way through another dental appointment. 

Dental anxiety shouldn’t be a self-soothing process, which is why we offer comforts like blankets and noise-canceling headphones. We’ll also guide your visit at a pace that feels right to you, with breaks whenever you need them and sedation options for anyone who needs them.
