Getting Started:What To Expect.

Your teen’s guide to the first orthodontic visit.

Respect & Clarity.

We treat teens like the young adults they are. That means we talk to them, not just about them. We know that for a teenager, image is everything and time is precious. Our goal for the first visit is to demystify the process, explain the “why” behind the treatment, and help them feel in control of their own smile journey. We focus on clear answers and cool technology, not lectures.

01.

First Visit

We'll thoroughly review your teen's medical and dental history during their first visit. 2D/3D digital images of your teen's teeth will be taken and a complete comprehensive clinical examination done before we review the diagnosis and discuss treatment options.


02.

Treatment Planning

We understand the financial aspect of treatment is a common concern for families. Once your teen's treatment plan has been established, our Treatment Coordinator will book future appointments and work with you to build a customized payment plan that works for you.


03.

Treatment Begins

The next steps will be based on your teen's treatment plan. Typically, we would create and place their custom-made orthodontic appliance, which may be braces or Invisalign Teen aligners to help straighten teeth, repair alignment issues and help them reach their treatment goals.


04.

Ongoing Treatment

We'll check in with your teen periodically so that their treatment progress can be tracked. Any required adjustments will be made and we can address any questions or concerns either of you may have before booking the next appointment.

" We arent here to change who your teen is. We are here to remove the barriers that stop them from showing it. True confidence is already there, often just hidden behind a hesitation to smile. Our role is to align their teeth with their potential, giving them the freedom to laugh, speak, and lead without holding anything back. "
