“The goal is for the patient to be comfortable and relaxed,” says Stosich. “Any questions will be addressed.” Stosich explains a number of things discussed in the first appointment.
What Type Of Treatment
There are many different types of orthodontic treatment used including clear dental braces, metal brackets, Invisalign and SureSmile. The type of treatment will be decided during the consultation.
When to start
Depending on the severity of the case, the start time will be determined. The American Association of Orthodontists recommend that every child should see an orthodontist by age 7, according to the AAO website (braces.org/learn/index.cfm)
Will Any Teeth Come Out?
To create more space, the second bicuspid may be extracted.
How Long Will Treatment Take?
Patient cooperation and case type will determine the length of treatment. Once the treatment is over, a orthodontic retainer will be provided.
The Cost
The cost and insurance coverage will be sorted out and determined prior to the end of consultation.
The next step will be a follow-up appointment. X-rays, molds and photos will be taken, and the journey of braces begins.
