Your first visit

It’s all about you. That's why we’re here.

Every part of your first visit is built around you. We build our schedule so that you never feel rushed, never feel like a number, and always feel like you’re the reason we’re open.

You’ll be greeted by name, offered comfort items, and welcomed into a calm, inviting space designed to help you breathe easy. Whether it’s been a few years or even a few decades since your last dental visit, there is zero judgment here.

What to expect

A Conversation

We start by getting to know you, not just your teeth. You. We want to hear about your experience with past dental visits, what you love about your smile, and what you wish was you could change. Your goals matter and shape everything we do for you.

A Thorough Exam

Dr. Kovach will perform a comprehensive exam with pain-free digital X-rays, a full review of your oral health, and a careful look at everything from your gums to your bite.

A Scrape Free Cleaning!

It’s true! Erie Dental Co. is proud to be the first and only Guided Biofilm Therapy certified dental practice in the state of Pennsylvania. We use AirFlow technology to gently remove plaque, staining, and buildup with a warm water spray. No scraping, no discomfort, just a cleaner feeling you’ll have to experience to believe.

Your Personalized Plan

Once we have a full picture of your oral health, Dr. Kovach will walk you through her findings and talk through any recommendations. No pressure, no upselling. Just honest, thoughtful guidance from someone who genuinely wants what is best for you. And, she loves when you ask questions!

Your Smile Partner

Dr. Alisun Kovach grew up in Erie, trained at some of the top institutions in the country, holds advanced certifications that no other dentist in Pennsylvania has earned, and brings a level of intention to every visit that you’ll notice right away.

What to Bring

We like to keep things simple. Here is what to have on hand for your first visit:

  • A valid photo ID (such as a driver's license)
  • Your dental insurance card, if you have one
  • Any questions, concerns, or smile goals you want to talk through

That’s it. We’ll handle the rest.

Finances and Insurance

If you have dental insurance, we are happy to submit claims on your behalf and help you navigate what your plan covers. However, Erie Dental Co. is not an insurance-based dental practice. That means Dr. Kovach gets to help you make decisions based on what is best for your smile, not what your insurance company is willing to cover.

Payment for services is due at the time of treatment. For patients without insurance, we offer a variety of flexible payment options and are proud partners with CareCredit and Cherry Payment Plans.

If you have questions about finances before your visit, just give us a call. We’ll be happy to walk you through everything.
