First orthodontic consultation

Taking the leap into orthodontic care is an exciting step toward a healthier, more confident smile. If you're preparing for your first orthodontic consultation, you're likely wondering what to expect. At Bergen Orthodontics, we pride ourselves on providing a modern, patient-focused experience that blends personalized care with cutting-edge technology. From the moment you step into our NYC-inspired office, you'll feel at ease knowing you're in expert hands.

A Warm Welcome and Initial Discussion

Your first orthodontic consultation begins when you arrive at our beautifully designed Bergen County office. We recognize that orthodontic care represents a commitment to your well-being and joy, so we prioritize ensuring that every patient feels at ease from the beginning.

Our team will collect your medical and dental history, and you'll have the chance to discuss any concerns or goals for your smile. Whether you're seeking a straighter smile for confidence or addressing functional issues like bite alignment, we take the time to listen. This preliminary discussion establishes the foundation for a customized treatment strategy.

Comprehensive Examination

Next comes the examination phase of your first orthodontic consultation. Using advanced diagnostic tools, we evaluate the current state of your teeth, jaw, and bite. At Bergen Orthodontics, we employ advanced imaging technology, including 3D scans and digital X-rays, to achieve a thorough understanding of your oral structure.

This provides us with an accurate picture of your orthodontic needs and ensures we can recommend the most effective treatment options. You'll appreciate the precision and efficiency of our modern equipment, designed to minimize discomfort and maximize results.

Expert Diagnosis and Personalized Recommendations

Once we've completed the examination, our orthodontists will share the results with you. We take the time to explain any findings in detail, ensuring you fully understand the condition of your teeth and jaw.

From here, we’ll present the treatment options best suited to your needs. Whether you're considering Invisalign for a discreet solution or braces for advanced alignment, we’ll guide you through the pros and cons of each. At Bergen Orthodontics, we educate our patients so they can make informed decisions about their care.

Cost and treatment duration are also discussed during your first orthodontic consultation. Our team will help you explore flexible payment plans, ensuring orthodontic care remains accessible to individuals and families from a variety of socio-economic backgrounds.
