What to Expect with Orthodontic Treatment

Every patient has unique needs so your orthodontic treatment plan will be significantly different than another patient’s treatment plan. We will begin with a thorough evaluation of the teeth and jaw, and an interview with you to learn more about your goals and expectations. We can also discuss fees and understand that the cost of orthodontic care can be fairly high for some patients. Still, it’s important to remember that orthodontics is not only an investment in your appearance but also for your oral health. Having evenly spaced teeth and a healthy bite will prevent oral health problems and costly treatments later in life.
