Scheduling Appointments

We value your time and understand the importance of minimizing time missed at school or work. Patients are seen by appointment only. We make every effort to keep on time for our patients and ask that you extend the same courtesy to us. If you cannot keep an appointment, please notify us immediately.

Please allow the following time for each appointment type:

  • Initial Examination – 30 minutes
  • Records – 30 minutes
  • Initial Bonding – 60 minutes
  • Adjustment Appointments – 15 to 30 minutes

Arriving on Time

We respect your valuable time and do our best to run on schedule. To serve each patient in a prompt and efficient manner, we ask that you arrive on time for your appointment. If you are late for an appointment, we ask that you see one of our front office staff members to determine if you can be rescheduled the same day or if you will need to be rescheduled to another day.

Missed Appointments

Successful orthodontic treatment requires a series of scheduled appointments throughout treatment. It is in the patient’s best interest to reschedule a missed appointment as soon as possible. Please contact our office immediately and we will work with you to reschedule missed appointments at our earliest convenience.

Rescheduling

We understand that schedules change and we will do our best to accommodate our patients’ busy schedules. Please call our office as soon as you know that you are going to have to reschedule your appointment.
