Your first visit to our office is very important in establishing your orthodontic baseline. Our orthodontists will perform a complete oral examination, which includes an analysis of any malocclusion as well as a thorough examination of your teeth, oral musculature, and possible skeletal deformities. We will also perform a thorough radiographic analysis with panoramic and cephalometric X-rays, as well as a photographic analysis. Any etiological factors, such as poor oral habits, will also be considered. We want to help you achieve your goals for your smile and look forward to giving you the personalized, high-quality service you deserve.
