Your First Visit at Cherish Your Smile
We’re Glad You’re Here
Dr. Cherish Jensen is known for one thing patients notice right away: she’s genuine. She listens first, explains what she sees, and never pressures you. If you’re ready to move forward, we’ll build a plan together. If you need time, you’ll get time.
“I want people to feel respected and comfortable—not judged or pressured. I treat everyone like family.”
Before You Arrive
Book in a way that’s easy
Schedule online or call our office. If you have questions about insurance, financing, or timing, we’ll help you sort it out before you come in.
Fill out forms ahead of time
If you prefer to move faster once you arrive, you can complete your patient forms in advance.
Know this: no judgment
If it’s been a while since your last dental visit, you’re still welcome here. We’re not here to lecture you. We’re here to help
When You Walk In
Your first moments matter. We want you to feel at ease right away.
You’ll be greeted by a friendly team that keeps things simple and respectful. We’ll confirm your information, answer any questions, and make sure you feel comfortable before we start.
If you’re feeling nervous, tell us. We’ll slow down and talk through everything.
Your Comfort Comes First
We built our office around a calm, comfort-forward experience.
You’ll find small touches that make a big difference:
- Blankets and neck pillows
- Wireless headphones
- Flat-screen TVs in treatment rooms
- A beverage bar
We also offer comfort options during treatment, including:
- Gentle numbing techniques
- Laughing gas
- Oral sedation (when appropriate)
The goal is simple: you should feel safe and supported the whole time.
What Happens During Your First Visit
1) We start with a conversation
Dr. Jensen and the team will ask about your goals, concerns, and past dental experiences. This helps us tailor your visit and avoid surprises.
2) We take the right records
Depending on your needs, we may take digital X-rays and intraoral photos. These help us get a full picture of your oral health.
3) You’ll see what we see
We use tools like Pearl AI and intraoral images to make findings easier to understand. You won’t be left guessing. You’ll be able to see what’s going on and why we’re recommending something.
4) Clear options, explained simply
Dr. Jensen will walk you through your results and your next steps. You’ll get options, not pressure.
“If you’re ready, I’m here for you.”
If You Need Treatment, Here’s How We Plan It
Dr. Jensen is meticulous and conservative. She looks for the most predictable, long-lasting solution while protecting your natural tooth structure whenever possible.
That means your plan may include:
- A simple “watch and wait” approach when appropriate
- Preventive care to stop problems early
- Restorative work designed to feel comfortable and function well
- Cosmetic options that look natural and fit your face and goals
A Thoughtful Approach to Your Smile
“Cosmetics and function go hand in hand. It’s not just about making teeth pretty—it’s about restoring how you chew, speak, and feel.”
And if you’re not ready to start treatment today, that’s okay. We’ll map out a path that fits your timeline.
