At Daia Orthodontics, we know your smile is as unique as you are, and we’re committed to making your orthodontic journey comfortable, educational, and personalized. Your first visit, a free consultation, is an exciting step toward a healthier, more confident smile, and here’s a step-by-step guide on what you can expect:
- A Warm Welcome from Our Team
When you arrive, you’ll be greeted by our friendly team, ready to make you feel at home. If needed, you’ll have an opportunity to brush your teeth before your appointment begins, ensuring your smile is clean and ready for evaluation. As part of your visit, we’ll also give you a tour of our office, showcasing our state-of-the-art technology and the beautifully commissioned artwork that makes our space unique and inviting.
- A Conversation with Our Treatment Coordinator
Next, you’ll sit down with our treatment coordinator for a one-on-one conversation. We want to understand your specific concerns, any pain or symptoms, likes and dislikes about your teeth, expectations, and any worries you might have. We’ll go over any documents and consent forms. This is your time to share what’s most important to you, so we can tailor your treatment plan to your goals.
- iTero Scan
At Daia Orthodontics, we use the advanced 5D iTero scanner to create a detailed 3D digital model of your teeth and gums that will be available for you to see in real-time. This quick, comfortable process replaces traditional impressions, eliminating the mess and discomfort of putty molds. The iTero scan gives us precise data to design your personalized treatment plan, ensuring a perfect fit for braces or Invisalign. The scan also helps us identify subtle issues like misalignments or jaw concerns early, allowing us to create a proactive and effective plan tailored to your needs.
- X-Rays and Discussion with Dr. Daia
We’ll take X-rays to examine your bone structure, airways, and overall orthodontic health. Afterward, the doctor will review the images with you, explaining what they reveal about your jaw, teeth alignment, and any underlying issues that may need attention.
- Measurements of Your Mouth
To ensure precise treatment planning, we’ll take measurements of your mouth, specifically how far your jaw can open, to assess if you have a limited range of motion.
- Checking Your Bite
The doctor will assess how your upper and lower teeth come together when you bite. This helps us identify any misalignments or functional concerns that may need to be addressed during treatment.
- Photos and a Sneak Peek at Your Future Smile
We’ll take photos of your smile to document your starting point and for Invisalign cases. Using an app powered by artificial intelligence, we can even generate a preview of your post-treatment results so you can see the amazing transformation ahead.
- Ask Your Questions
We want you to feel confident and informed about your treatment options, so this is your chance to ask any questions. Whether you’re curious about the timeline, care instructions, or different treatment methods, we’re here to help.
- Discuss Pricing and Payment Plans
Finally, we’ll go over the pricing for your recommended treatment and explain our flexible payment plans to make the treatment possible for every budget. At Daia Orthodontics, we believe a great smile should be accessible to everyone, so we’ll work with you to find a payment plan that fits your budget.
