New Patients in Ocean Springs MS

Welcome to Gulfside Periodontics

Dr. Carter will perform a 90 minute comprehensive periodontal exam that may include digital radiography.

Please assist us at the time of your initial visit to the office by arriving 15 minutes prior and  providing the following information:

• Your referral slip and x-rays from your referring dentist.
• A list of medications you are currently taking (please note that you can fill out your patient registration and medical history form on our website.)
• If you have dental insurance, please bring any forms or insurance cards with you to the appointment.

Please Note: All patients under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation appointment.

Please notify the office if you have a medical condition or concern prior to surgery (e.g. artificial heart valves or joints, heart murmurs requiring pre-medication, severe diabetes, or hypertension).

We will complete an in-depth medical and dental health history and a thorough examination to measure for bone loss, loose teeth, bite, oral cancer screening, TMJ, and other signs of periodontal disease.
