How do I get started as a patient?
Begin by reviewing the new patient information, then call the office so a patient coordinator can guide you through records, scheduling, and next steps.
Become a New PatientWhy is IV conscious sedation used, and is it safe?
IV conscious sedation helps patients rest through treatment while maintaining protective reflexes. Blood pressure, heart rhythm, and pulse are monitored throughout the procedure.
Drs. Nunnally, Freeman, Owens, and Dorsey are certified in IV conscious sedation and have received extensive training in sedation and advanced cardiac life support.
Should I send cone beam (CBCT) scans?
Please send a digital 2-D panoramic X-ray when the practice begins evaluating your dental needs. This image is simpler to review and helps the team prepare a treatment plan more efficiently.
The office will take a cone beam (CBCT) scan after you arrive. Scans taken elsewhere may not open in the office system and can lead to unnecessary expense and radiation exposure.
Will treatment improve my health?
Every patient, diagnosis, and response to treatment is different. The team will explain the goals, limitations, and expected next steps for your individual care plan.
Does the practice provide routine dentistry?
Yes. In addition to dental revisions, the practice provides routine services such as cleanings, fillings, and crowns, with an emphasis on biocompatible materials and current techniques.
Are condominium rentals with kitchens available in Marble Falls?
Yes. The staff can recommend condominium rentals that include kitchens for patients who prefer to prepare their own meals.
What is a dental revision?

The minimum wait before flying is 24 hours. Follow the specific post-operative instructions provided for your procedure.
Why should I stay in Marble Falls the night of surgery?

Do I need a caregiver, and can I drive after IV conscious sedation?
