First Visit

We look forward to meeting you! When you schedule your complimentary initial examination appointment with us, you will be mailed a welcome packet that includes an acquaintance form to be completed and brought to your first visit. When you arrive at our office for your first visit, our new patient coordinator will guide you through a comprehensive examination process. This is a great time to find out all the benefits of successful orthodontic treatment. Please feel free to bring a list of any questions you may have regarding orthodontic treatment.

During your first visit, our treatment coordinator and doctor will review your medical and dental history, establish the need for orthodontic treatment and discuss your orthodontic treatment goals. The doctor will carefully examine your teeth, jaws and facial profile to determine the best time to begin orthodontic treatment.

If additional dental maturity is needed, we will monitor growth and development in our Let’s Time It Right! orthodontic monitoring and guidance program. In those cases where orthodontic treatment is indicated, we will detail the type of treatment recommended, review the variety of appliances available to treat your case, discuss the length of treatment, provide a cost estimate and customized payment plan and assist you in scheduling your appointments.

In all cases, we will forward a detailed summary of our findings and recommended treatment plan to your dental specialist. Exceptional results are created by outstanding communication between our office, your dentist and each patient.
