Your First Visit


Examination

At your first visit to our office we would like you to find out as much as possible about your teeth and about our office. We will gather some information from you and carefully listen to what you would hope to achieve with treatment. Dr. Miranda will perform a thorough visual examination of your teeth and bite. We will be able to tell you if an orthodontic problem exists and a general idea as to the type of treatment necessary. The treatment can be limited, intermediate, partial or full depending on the severity of the problem and your age. You will also receive an estimated treatment time, fee and instruction regarding future visits.

My son started his orthodontic journey today at Salish orthodontics with Dr. Miranda. The consult was thorough. The staff was great at explaining, not only things to me, but to my son so we both understood what was going on during the consult and what was going to happen during his treatment. Everyone was kind and welcoming! Lovely experience.
