Our goal is to create a treatment plan that meets all your orthodontic needs. With accurate diagnosis and the right treatment, our orthodontists can help you achieve the smile you want.
We tailor each treatment plan to fit each patient, including when to start. We consider factors like bone growth and dental development when planning treatment. Sometimes, especially for younger patients, we might wait until their teeth and bones are ready before starting treatment. If we recommend waiting, we’ll schedule follow-up visits to check progress. Often, waiting six months to a year is enough for the necessary growth and development.

Expectations for Your First
Visit to the Orthodontist
Whether you’re ready for braces, or clear aligners, or just wish to discuss your different orthodontic treatment options, our orthodontist is here to help.
The first visit is an opportunity for our orthodontist to learn more about your treatment goals, reasons for seeking care, and long-term expectations.
During your first visit to our practice, our orthodontist will perform a full orthodontic evaluation, an intraoral exam. The diagnostic records from your first visit are vital to creating a customized treatment plan.
These records include medical/dental history, a complete clinical examination and imaging of the patient's face and smile. Following this evaluation, our orthodontist will create a written treatment plan and outline the different options available to you.
Orthodontic FAQ’s
We recommend that kids come in for an initial consultation at around the age of 7. This doesn’t mean that they will necessarily need orthodontic treatment at this age, but getting a baseline and a panoramic x-ray to see how the teeth are developing and where the roots are at, etc is a great way to see where everything is headed.
Each treatment plan is unique and personalized for every patient. There are a variety of factors that determine the cost of treatment. Come in for a Free consultation and we can discuss your treatment and personalized payment plan during that first visit.
