We look forward to your first visit to our office. We will address your concerns, allow plenty of time for you to ask as many questions as you like, and answer those questions as thoroughly as possible. We want you to be well informed about the orthodontic options available to you.

If orthodontic treatment is recommended, we will recommend diagnostic records in the form of photos, impressions of your teeth, and x-rays. These records are carefully studied by Dr. Hamway and Dr. Stroster, and then reviewed with you in a consultation approximately two weeks later. Treatment options and goals, as well as estimated fees and financial arrangements are discussed in the consultation. We encourage questions from parents and patients, and provide ample time to answer these questions to your satisfaction.

After the consultation a copy of your treatment plan will be sent to your family dentist. Working in close contact with your dentist is important in achieving the very best results possible.
