We
are always excited about meeting new patients during their first visit
to our office. Your initial appointment will consist of a thorough examination
and a discussion of potential treatment options. This important 60-minute
visit will give us insights into your orthodontic needs. We may need
to schedule a second exam for diagnostic records (X-rays, photos and
impressions for study models). This additional appointment will last
approximately one hour and is necessary for developing an appropriate
treatment plan.
On your first visit, our objective is to determine the long-term needs
for you and/or your child. At this visit, one of three outcomes is determined:
- Treatment is needed now.
- Treatment is not needed.
- Treatment is needed, but the timing is such that it should be delayed
until appropriate growth, tooth eruption or other factors are monitored
and reconciled.
You will then have the opportunity to discuss treatment options, time
frames and financial arrangements with Dr. Bennett and his staff. We
insist that our patients leave the office with a clear understanding
of their specific needs, what the treatment will consist of and how
long it will take. We encourage you to ask questions, and we are always
available to talk with you and address any concerns that you may have.
