The Super Dentists are always excited about meeting new patients during their first visit to our orthodontic office. Your initial complementary 60-minute consultation consists of a thorough examination, free complete orthodontic diagnosis, free digital x-rays and free photographs. This important visit gives us insight into your orthodontic needs.
We know your time is valuable, so to expedite treatment, we may also reserve time following the exam for diagnostic records. The records include X-rays, photos and impressions for study models and are necessary for developing your appropriate treatment plan. This additional appointment lasts approximately 30 minutes.
During your initial examination, The Super Dentists will address the following questions that cover the basics of orthodontic treatment. You are also encouraged to ask your own questions.
- Is there a condition that orthodontics can address?
- Is treatment needed now or should treatment be delayed until appropriate growth, tooth eruption or other factors have occurred?
- What treatment procedures will be used to correct your problem?
- Do any permanent teeth need to be removed?
- How long will your treatment take?
- How much will it cost?
- What are your payment options?
While we can often answer these general questions about treatment during your initial examination, we sometimes address specific areas after careful analysis of the diagnostic records. We feel it is important to analyze your specific needs, because in-depth planning leads to superior results and greater patient satisfaction.
Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your first visit:
- Any and all information requested in our new patient package.
- If you have orthodontic insurance, bring your insurance card. By providing this information at the first visit, we are able to give you an estimate of your costs.
