Your First Visit

Invest In Your Smile with Our Preferred Plan
Over the years, we've heard countless stories of patients' retainers getting lost, accidentally thrown away, or even eaten by the dog. It happens more often than you'd think! Retainers are a huge part of your orthodontic treatment, and our Preferred Plan helps ensure smiles continue to look perfect long after braces are removed. By becoming a Preferred Plan member, you get replacement retainers up to four times a year, saving thousands of dollars and gaining peace-of-mind in never having to worry about the cost of losing a retainer. Our patients love this treatment option.
Perks of the plan:
- Retainers includes + Replacements as Needed*
- 5 Years of Retainer Checks Included
- Post Treatment Take-Home Whitening Kit (ages 16+) to help your new smile SHINE
- Option of Clear or Metal Braces
Dental Insurance
We are more than prepared to work with most major insurance plans and providers because we are an insurance-friendly orthodontic office! We’ll make sure to talk about your benefits in more detail when the time comes for treatment. We will file your insurance claim on your behalf and maximize benefits to the highest extent. It is very important to us that you get the most out of your plan and save money on you and your family’s care.
Medicaid Accepted
Your child should be able to get the treatment that they need at an affordable price. If you would like to use Medicaid to pay for your child’s orthodontic treatment, we’ll help you make sure that your benefits are properly maximized. At an initial appointment, we’ll offer recommendations for the best possible treatment options for your child based on a detailed exam, then discuss payments moving forward. Medicaid can be especially helpful for those children who need orthodontic treatment to correct jaw issues that affect their speech and ability to chew.
Affordable Financing Available
Every smile is unique. So is every budget. LendingPoint patient financing helps make getting the smile you want for yourself or for your child easy and affordable. Click the link below to check out options for no down payment / low monthly payment plans. Instant decision. Checking your options will not affect your credit score.

Doing so will increase the chances that we’ll be able to get you scheduled for the same day and get advice from us to improve your condition. There are options for you to consider before you do make it to the orthodontic office.

Broken Bracket
Push the bracket back into place with a cotton ball as gently as possible if it is still attached. Then, cover it with orthodontic wax. This will keep it in place temporarily. This wax can be purchased in major grocery stores or pharmacies. Next, rinse your mouth with saltwater. This will help any sores or cuts heal faster. Make sure to not eat any hard or sticky food moving forward.
Poking Wire
Push the wire so it is flat against your tooth. This can be done with a Q-tip. You can cover it with relief wax if the wire cannot be pushed into a more comfortable spot. Clip the wire using a pair of clippers only as a last resort. Make sure you have a tissue or gauze pad ready to catch the wire after cutting it.
Oral Pain & Soreness
When braces have been recently attached to teeth, it’s normal to experience some mild discomfort for the next day or two. To alleviate soreness, make sure to stick to a soft diet and rinse your mouth out with warm salt water. If soreness is present any longer than a couple days, take an over-the-counter painkiller and get in touch with our orthodontic office right away.
