You'll need to bring in the following:
● A photo ID
● Your insurance card
● Any panoramic X-ray, if available taken in the past six months
● A list of current medications and medical conditions
● The phone number of your primary care physician.
We're happy to welcome you to our practice. We'll start by taking a complete medical and dental history and will ask you about any current concerns. Our team will take x-rays required for orthodontic diagnosis to identify any dental problems and to create a baseline for future dental visits. We will diagnose and discuss your orthodontic needs.
At the conclusion of your appointment, we will discuss any current orthodontic needs, the treatment plan and process. We will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan for long-term oral health.
We're excited that you've chosen us to care for your smile. We will never judge you. Instead, we'll address any oral health problems, explain your treatment options, and create a plan of action to address your unique needs.
Our team will evaluate your unique needs and recommend the ideal frequency of visits for your orthodontic visit to maintain your healthy smile.
If you have an emergency, we'll do everything we can to provide a same-day appointment. Please call our emergency number for guidance if you need urgent dental care outside our office hours.
An orthodontic emergency is a situation requiring urgent care to relieve severe pain. Our highly trained and experienced team is fully equipped and prepared to deal with different orthodontic emergencies.
We invite you to call us right away if you feel you require urgent care. However, if you or a loved one experience a life-threatening emergency such as uncontrolled bleeding or a fractured jaw, call 911 or head to your nearest emergency room.
We understand that many of our patients are fearful of the dentist. Our gentle techniques and personalized care will help ensure you are comfortable and anxiety-free during treatment.
We recommend brushing your teeth with a soft-bristled toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least three times daily. You should also floss thoroughly at least once a day. Maintaining proper oral hygiene practices will lower your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
