What happens next?
- At your first appointment you will have a full orthodontic examination.
This will include taking photos, an x-ray and impressions of your teeth. - We will look at your profile, as well as looking into your mouth for the alignment of your teeth.
Four things may happen:
- Your orthodontist will tell you there is little or no problem and you do not require orthodontic treatment. You will be discharged back to your own dentist.
- A consultation appointment will be arranged for you in the near future while your orthodontist analyses your records.
- Your orthodontist will tell you that you will/may need orthodontic treatment in the future, but you are perhaps still too young to start it. We will arrange an appointment to be sent out to you at a later date.
- Your orthodontist will tell you that you are ready to receive orthodontic treatment. She/he will discuss the treatment with you and an appointment will be arranged for you to start the treatment.
