An orthodontic consultation is the first step to achieving a healthy alignment for your teeth, jaws and bite. Our team at Unionville Orthodontics wants you to know what to expect when you come in for your consultation, so you can feel at ease!
We’ll review the following:
Your Medical and Dental History
We will need to know the last time you saw your dentist, and receive your previous dental x-rays. This will help us set a foundation for your treatment. You’ll also need to fill out some paperwork about your dental history, and provide us with your insurance information. We will contact your dentist and/or doctor if more information is required.
Oral Exam/Imaging
Some orthodontic issues might not come up in your previous records. Imaging will help us determine what treatment we need to conduct. We will examine your teeth, and may request to perform a panoramic x-ray or cephalometric x-ray. This will allow us to take a closer look at your oral cavity, teeth, and underlying jaw structure.
Custom Treatment Plan
After your oral examination, we will determine if there are any dental issues that need to be corrected before you are eligible for orthodontic treatment. If there are any problems, we will refer you back to your dentist. If not, you’re good to go! Dr. Lee and our treatment coordinator will create a custom treatment based on your needs and lifestyle!
Question and Answers
We make time to answer any questions you may have! We’ll provide any additional information you need to make sure you completely understand your treatment, the approximate duration and any lifestyle changes required. You can also make inquiries about cost, flexible payment plans, and insurance.
