Your First Visit

We are always excited about meeting new patients during their first visit to our office. Mary, our Treatment Coordinator, will assist you through your first visit with us. Your initial appointment will consist of a thorough examination, complimentary panoramic x-ray, and a discussion of potential treatment options with Dr. Fullerton. This important 60-minute visit will give us insight into your orthodontic needs. We know your time is valuable, so to expedite treatment, we may also reserve time following the exam for diagnostic records. The records include an additional X-ray, photos and impressions for digital study models which are necessary for developing your individualized treatment plan. This additional appointment will last approximately 30 minutes. You may see examples of these on our Technology page.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your first visit:

  • Any panoramic X-ray taken within the past six months.
  • If you have orthodontic insurance, bring your insurance card. By providing this information at the first visit, we will be able to give you an estimate of your costs.

You may access the following forms to assist us with your care. Please print and fill out the desired form, then bring it to your appointment.

During the initial examination for each patient, we will address the following questions that cover the basics of orthodontic treatment. We encourage you to ask questions as well.

  • Is there a condition that orthodontics can address?
  • Is treatment needed now or should treatment be delayed until appropriate growth, tooth eruption or other factors have occurred?
  • What treatment procedures will be used to correct the problem?
  • What are the benefits with treatment?
  • What treatment options are there?
  • How long will treatment take?
  • How much will it cost?
  • What are my payment options?

While we can often answer these general questions about treatment during the initial examination, we will address specific areas after careful analysis of the diagnostic records. We feel it is important to analyze each patient's specific needs, because in-depth planning leads to superior results and higher patient satisfaction.

We will then schedule a consultation visit to discuss treatment options, time frames and financial arrangements. We insist that our patients leave the office with a clear understanding of their specific needs, what the treatment will consist of and how long it will take. Also, we will answer any additional questions.
