Office Visits
Complimentary Exam
Your first visit to our office is a complimentary exam. During this initial 30 to 45-minute appointment, we will carefully examine the teeth for a wide range of orthodontic issues such as crowding, cross-bites, alignment of the teeth and jaws, and TMJ function and will address specific areas of concern.
Diagnostic Records
After your complimentary exam, diagnostic records—including medical/dental history, clinical exam, teeth models, photos, and X-rays—are taken if you proceed with treatment. These records help create a custom treatment plan and track your progress during orthodontic care.
Treatment
After reviewing your diagnostic records, we'll explain your treatment and costs at a consultation. Once records are complete, we’ll schedule your appliance placement (braces, expanders, etc.), which takes 1-2 hours. Follow-up adjustments occur every 4-8 weeks and take about 30 minutes.
