A healthy, straight smile is critical for your mouth’s overall health. And it is recommended that children visit their orthodontist by the age of seven in order to determine if orthodontic treatment is necessary, either now or down the road.
If your child is making their first visit to Beauty Smile Orthodontics, here is what you can expect at your first orthodontic appointment:
We will take x-rays and digital images. We will take x-rays and photos of your mouth in order to get a complete picture of what is going on in your mouth. This will help Dr. Alamir have a better understanding of what treatment is necessary and what may happen later on down the road in your mouth.
We will take a look at your mouth. By taking a physical look at your mouth and teeth, Dr. Alamir can ensure your teeth are falling out in the correct pattern, as well as determine if there are any issues that may indicate a cause for concern.
We will discuss treatment options, if necessary. If treatment is needed, Dr. Alamir will discuss all treatment options with you, giving all the information and helping you to make the best decision for you and your child. We will answer all of your questions and listen to any of your concerns that you may have. We will also review the financial obligations that will be associated with the necessary treatment, working with you to find a plan that will work with your budget.
