Our greatest goal is to help you achieve the healthy, straight, beautiful smile you deserve. We know that starting orthodontic treatment is a meaningful decision, and we respect what drives you to want to improve your smile and your confidence.
Our practice will guide you through every stage of treatment to make your orthodontic experience as rewarding as possible. We use the latest technology and offer a range of safe, gentle options to deliver the individualized care you deserve.
Your journey begins with an initial consultation!
Your initial consultation gives you the chance to meet our team, learn about orthodontics, receive a complete exam, and find out which treatment options best fit your needs. During your visit, we will:
- Review your dental and medical history
- Complete a thorough oral exam with X-rays to assess your treatment needs
- Develop a customized treatment plan for your smile
- Walk you through financial details, insurance options, and payment plans
Our team is happy to answer all your questions and provide the information you need to choose the right treatment. Contact us today to schedule your initial consultation.
What comes next after your consultation?
You’re one step closer to the smile you’ve always wanted! After your consultation, we’ll schedule your first appointment and Dr. Zak, Dr. Zolnowski, Dr. McAndrews, Dr. Ray, Dr. Shatz or Dr. Abaeyv will place your new orthodontic appliance. This appointment typically takes about an hour, and our team will be right there to keep you comfortable throughout.
Scheduling Appointments
Regular check-ins every four to eight weeks are a key part of keeping your treatment on track. We’ll work with you to find appointment times that fit your schedule. Just let us know which days and times work best for you.
Life happens — if you’re running late or need to reschedule, give us a call and we’ll do our best to accommodate you. When you’re ready to get started, reach out and our friendly scheduling coordinator will take care of you. We look forward to working with you!
Continuing dental visits during treatment
It’s essential to keep up your six-month cleanings and checkups with your family dentist throughout your orthodontic treatment. If additional dental care is needed along the way, we’re happy to coordinate with your dentist to ensure you receive seamless, comprehensive care.
