What can you expect during your first appointment?
During your first appointment, our assistant will meet you and make a digital scan of your teeth. Once the scan and photos are complete, you will be met by the orthodontist who will consult the scan to discuss what needs to be done and explain your options.
We will take two more x-rays after you have seen the orthodontist and reviewed everything. We will then draw up a treatment and financial plan for you to take home with you. At your next appointment, we will fit your chosen brace.
