PATIENT EDUCATION
New Patients
Together we discuss your dental and medical health history as well as your concerns about your teeth. We will then examine your mouth and teeth and discuss problems that we may find, how they may be corrected, how long the correction may take and estimate the fee for that service.
If treatment is indicated, your next visit would be for x-rays, models, and photographs, so that we can make exact measurements of the teeth and bones to uncover any possible hidden problems. A computerized analysis helps us in this process and in certain instances can project total facial growth to maturity as well as tell us how tall you will be.
At the next appointment we will show you your records and discuss in detail your personalized treatment plan, how long it will take, and exactly what needs to be done. We will then set up appointments to start treatment.
If no specific treatment is needed, you may be seen at regular intervals for months or years, to monitor the growth and development of your teeth and jaws. It is very important to time the start of treatment to get the best result for you. There is no charge for these recall visits.
