OFFICE VISITS
Once you take that first step, here’s what to expect during your complimentary consultation. No matter which office location you visit, our orthodontists follow the same thorough process to ensure you receive the best care possible.
Your first visit includes a comprehensive examination to determine a diagnosis and create a personalized treatment plan designed specifically for you.
This may include orthodontic X-rays, photos, and a 3D scan of your teeth using one of our advanced scanners to help us develop the most effective treatment approach. We will also discuss treatment options, expected time frames, and financial arrangements when applicable.
When you leave your first appointment, you’ll have the information you need to make a confident, informed decision about moving forward, including:
- Whether braces, aligners, or another treatment option is best for you
- How long treatment may take
- The estimated cost of treatment
- Your available insurance benefits
In many cases, patients can even start treatment the very same day as their consultation, making it easier and more convenient to begin your journey toward a healthier, more confident smile.
The Next Step
After your initial consultation, we’ll take our findings from your orthodontic exam and use them to create a customized treatment plan. We’ll also schedule your next appointment, when we’ll start creating your dazzling smile.
You can expect this appointment to take about an hour, and we’ll work to make it a comfortable and informative visit. With this appointment, your treatment is truly underway!
Dental Visits
In addition to visiting us, you’ll also have to keep regular appointments with your dentist. You should see him or her at least every six months for teeth cleaning, and we may refer you for extra cleanings if we feel it’s necessary. Dental hygiene is absolutely crucial to the success of your treatment, so it’s particularly important that you see your dentist and keep your teeth clean during treatment.
