Your first visit:
Consultation
Your initial appointment may consist of a consultation explaining your diagnosis and treatment options. Occasionally, surgery can be performed the same day as the consultation. However, a complex medical history or treatment plan will require an evaluation and a second appointment to provide treatment on another day.
It is generally advisable that young children, patients with extensive or complex medical histories, patients requiring intravenous sedation or general anesthesia, and patients with special needs are seen for a consultation visit prior to treatment to increase the likelihood that the surgical visit will be as comfortable as possible.
Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your consultation
- Your surgical referral card and any x-rays if applicable.
- A current list of medications you are taking.
- If you have medical or dental insurance, please bring any pertinent information and a valid form of identification. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
IMPORTANT: All patients under 18 years of age must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at the consultation visit and all subsequent visits.
Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern prior to surgery (i.e., diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are currently taking any medication (i.e., heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, bone density medications, etc.).
X-Rays
If your dentist or physician has taken x-rays, you may request that they forward or email them to our office. If there is not enough time, please pick them up and bring them to our office or let us know, and we will try to make arrangements with your referring doctor. In many cases, additional films may be necessary, and they will be taken at our facility.
Schedule an appointment
We and our surgical team regularly see scheduled patients Monday through Friday including early morning and evening appointments.
We encourage scheduling surgical procedures in the morning, especially those requiring sedation or general anesthesia.
For your convenience, we will often accommodate patients before and after regularly scheduled office hours.
The nature of oral and maxillofacial surgery often lends itself to the treatment of emergent and urgent situations. To that end, Dr. Nikoyan and the team at Forward Oral Surgery are available to see emergencies whenever necessary. Every attempt is made to see emergencies the same day.
Please call 516-775-2222 with any questions or to schedule an appointment.
Insurance information
At Forward Oral Surgery we make every effort to provide you with the finest surgical care and the most convenient financial options. We participate with a select group of insurance plans, but work with many plans in which we do not participate.
For a complete list of plans with which we participate, please call our office at 516-775-2222.
Please understand our primary responsibility is to deliver healthcare. Dental insurance is not meant to cover all of your expenses but rather cover part of the cost. There is usually out of the pocket cost for specialist care. Regardless of whether we participate in your insurance plan or not, you are ultimately responsible for the cost. In most cases we can estimate what your out of pocket cost is for the treatment. However, please understand that this is only an estimate. After the claim is submitted, and finalized by your insurance, the difference is billed to you. Depending on a network this can take many months to complete.
Please call if you have any questions or concerns. Please bring your insurance information with you to your initial visit so that we can expedite reimbursement.
