Getting Started
Before braces are placed, patients must visit a dentist for an exam and have any necessary fillings. Patients should visit the dentist every 6 months for a thorough examination and cleaning. Before each orthodontic appointment, patients are encouraged to brush their teeth. Prepasted toothbrushes are provided in the office.
Appointments
Our staff makes every effort to accommodate emergencies and broken brackets in a timely manner. In order to help us continue to schedule efficiently, 24 hour notice is required to cancel an appointment.

Your cooperation in keeping scheduled orthodontic appointments, maintaining proper hygiene and taking care of your braces may allow you to finish your orthodontic treatment early.
