Complete diagnostic records typically include a medical\/dental history, clinical examination, computerized study models of the teeth, photos of the patient\u2019s face and teeth, and X-rays. This information is used to develop a custom treatment plan for each patient. These records are also helpful in tracking the progress of treatment as the teeth move under orthodontic care.<\/p><p>After the doctor has evaluated your records, we discuss your treatment with you in detail, including the cost for your particular case.<\/p><h4><strong>Regular Appointments<\/strong><\/h4><p>The appointment when you get your appliances (braces, expanders, etc.) usually takes 1 to 2 hours. You\u2019ll then see us at regular intervals 4 to 8 weeks apart for an adjustment, which takes 20 to 40 minutes. Patients are seen by appointment only. We make every effort to be on time for our patients and ask that you extend the same courtesy to us. If you cannot keep an appointment, please notify us immediately.<\/p><h4><strong>Payment &amp; Office Policies<\/strong><\/h4><h4><strong>Cost<\/strong><\/h4><p>The cost of treatment depends on the severity of the patient\u2019s problem. You will be able to discuss fees and payment options before treatment begins. We have several payment plans to suit different budgets. We work hard to make orthodontics affordable.<\/p><h4><strong>Fees<\/strong><\/h4><p>In an effort to keep orthodontic fees down while maintaining the highest level of professional care, we have established this financial policy:<\/p><ul><li>If full payment is made at the onset of treatment, we will offer a fee discount.<\/li><li>To fit your individual needs, financial arrangements can be made to extend your payments over a period of months.<\/li><li>For your convenience, we accept payment by Visa and Mastercard.<\/li><\/ul><h4><strong>Insurance<\/strong><\/h4><p>Our office will bill your insurance for you.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Complimentary Consultation At your first visit to our office, diagnostic records are made to determine the best course of treatment.
