At Herzberg Orthodontics, we know that your first visit is an important step toward the smile you’ve always wanted. Our goal is to make the process smooth, informative, and tailored to your needs from the moment you walk through the door. To help you get the most out of your consultation, we’ve put together our top tips for a successful first orthodontic appointment.
1. Fill out all your Information Online, Several Days Before your First Appointment
Think of this as the first step in your smile journey. By completing all the requested information from our partner, OrthoFi, you’re helping us get to know you before you even walk in. Be sure to share what type of treatment you’re envisioning - whether you’re curious about Invisalign aligners, interested in traditional metal or clear braces, or excited to learn about something innovative like Brava+ by Brius. This allows our team to prepare a selection of personalized options. When you arrive, we can dive right into exploring what’s possible for your smile, answer your questions, and get started on your journey to a better smile.
2. Take Advantage of Your Complimentary Consultation
Your first visit is more than just a quick check - it’s your chance to get a clear picture of your smile’s potential. During your consultation, we’ll take photos and an iTero optical scan of your teeth, complete a thorough exam, and explain what we see in a way that’s easy to understand. From there, we’ll outline the treatment paths available to you, along with expected timelines and results. This one-on-one time is designed to give you all the information you need.
3. Let’s Talk About What Works for Your Budget
We believe everyone deserves a smile they truly love, and financial concerns should never hold you back from getting started. Your smile is an investment in yourself, and we’re here to make that investment feel manageable, comfortable, and stress-free.
That’s why we take the time to sit down with you, learn about your goals, and create a payment plan that fits easily into your lifestyle. Whether you prefer to take advantage of our pay-in-full discount, want to get started for as little as $250 down, or need the flexibility of low monthly payments, we’ll work with you every step of the way.
We know every family’s situation is unique, which is why we offer a variety of options to make treatment possible. Our goal is to remove financial barriers so you can focus on what really matters - watching your smile transform.
4. Bring Your Questions
This is your time to ask about anything and everything - comfort, lifestyle adjustments, and more. We’re here to listen, provide clarity, and make sure you’re making the best decision for your smile and your future.
5. Share Your Smile Goals
If you have an upcoming event like a wedding, graduation, or family photo session, let us know! We’ll take your timeline into account and endeavor to have you camera-ready when the big day arrives.
