Feeling a bit nervous about your first orthodontic appointment? Southington Orthodontics wants you to know there’s nothing to worry about! Dr. C and our team are excited to tell you what to expect from our orthodontic practice in Southington. Your initial visit is a crucial first step on your road to getting the smile you’ve always wanted. You’ll meet Dr. C during your appointment, learn about your orthodontic options, and discover how we can help transform your smile. We promise to make your visit informative, comfortable, and fun. So, let’s discuss what you should expect at your first orthodontic appointment with us!
Purpose of the First Appointment
Your first visit to Southington Orthodontics is essential. But you might wonder, “What’s it all about?” Well, this appointment is your ground zero for getting a beautiful new smile. Dr. C and our team have a few goals for your visit. First, we’ll check out your teeth and jaws. We have to see what’s happening to know how to help.
Then, we’ll discuss what we find and give you a “roadmap” to a jaw-dropping smile. We might discuss braces, clear aligners, or other excellent options. Plus, it’s your chance to ask all your questions—nothing’s off-limits!
Preparation Tips
A little preparedness can go a long way before your big day at Southington Orthodontics. Here’s how to prepare for an easy first visit with Dr. C and our team. Have you had treatment before? It can help to have your records on hand (digital works too). Remember to bring identification, and an insurance card too. This helps Dr. C know more about you. If you really want to be on your A-game, go here to fill out your forms early.
Your Smile Q & A
Smiles open doors for you. Having a grin you love builds your confidence and improves your mental outlook. Think about what you want from your smile. What fears, worries, or concerns do you have? Dr. C loves answering questions, so don’t be shy! This is your chance to discuss your dream smile and figure out how to get there. No question is too hard, so bring what you’ve got!
What We Do Different
You’re not a patient. You’re a friend and neighbor. During your appointment, you’ll discover how the environment in our practice is what sets us apart.
Warm Welcome
When you step into Southington Orthodontics, you’ll notice that our lobby feels a bit like your living room. Our friendly team greets every visitor with a warm welcome. We’ll remember you and your family’s names and faces. We aim to make you feel comfortable and relaxed. Everyone will be glad to see you and spend time with you.
Initial Examination
Dr. C takes the stage with a thorough examination of your teeth. The doctor might use gadgets like X-rays or digital scans. Tools like these help us have a proper view of your unique smile. Your smile is unlike your family’s, neighbor’s, or coworker’s. We have to treat your smile for the one-of-a-kind wonder that it is.
Followup Discussion
After your exam, Dr. C will sit down with you to discuss what he’s discovered. This is your chance to see your current smile’s blueprint and discuss the vision for your future one. The doctor will show you X-rays or digital images of your teeth, gums, and jaw. That way, you can see things for yourself.
Treatment Options
Imagine choosing your equipment for a big adventure—that’s what discussing treatment options is like. Dr. C will guide you through your choices, from traditional braces or clear braces to invisible aligners. The doctor will explain how each one works and what to expect.
Financial Information
Finally, we’ll lay out the financial portion. This part is important because we discuss how our team can make your new smile as affordable as possible. We’ll break down the costs and insurance details and go over flexible payment plans. You should feel confident and informed about the investment in your smile. After all, you’re planning a budget for a big project.
After Your Appointment
After your first visit to Southington Orthodontics, you’ll feel excited about the journey to get your amazing new smile. But what happens next? First, we’ll schedule your follow-up appointments. These are super important. Why? Because they’re where your treatment starts! Did the doctor recommend braces? How about getting fitted for clear aligners? Let’s get those appointments scheduled.
Dr. C and our team might also give you some homework—but the good kind! The doctor might recommend that you make some changes to your oral hygiene routine. He might want you to invest in a better toothbrush or be gentler when you floss. Plus, your particular treatment will impact how you take care of your teeth—so pay attention!
And remember, if you have any questions after you leave, or if something pops into your head that you forgot to ask, give us a call. We’re here to make sure you feel supported and excited every step of the way.
