Scheduling Appointments

Initial Appliance Placement:

Longer appointments for placing your braces or other appliances are typically scheduled in the morning. We understand your time is valuable, so we strive to offer convenient appointment times. Initial placement is usually scheduled for 90 minutes and is best done when patients are fresh, and we are able to spend extra time to ensure your comfort.

Routine Adjustments:

These shorter visits, usually lasting 20 to 30 minutes, can be scheduled after school or during other convenient times. If you have any broken or loose appliances, please call ahead so we can reserve extra time to make necessary repairs.

Adult Patients:

To accommodate busy work schedules, adult appointments are available early in the morning or later in the day. We also offer a private treatment room for adults to ensure comfort and privacy.

Appointment Changes:

We understand that life happens, but if you need to reschedule or cancel, please give us at least 24 hours notice whenever possible. This helps us manage our schedule and offer timely care to all patients.

Do I Stay with My Child During Visits?

We welcome you to stay with your child during the initial examination. For future appointments, we suggest allowing your child to accompany our staff independently. This helps us build a closer rapport with your child and ease any apprehension. However, you are always welcome to be with your child in the treatment room if you prefer. For safety and privacy, siblings or other children not being treated should remain in the reception area with a supervising adult.
