Your First Visit

On the first visit you’ll fill a Health History and registration form to let us know your health condition (in many conditions, orthodontics treatment plan should be change). Then we can know the reason because you or your parents want for an orthodontist evaluation. The doctor will make an examination, and after that, you and your parents will know a general outline of the treatment to be followed. The treatment does not begin at this first consultation. We explain the characteristics of the case and its appropiate treatment to the patient and/or parents.

There are a variety of options:

1. The patient needs no treatment: the doctor will explain the reason for this decision and will make periodical check-ups in order to evaluate the development of the patient’s dentition (6-12 months).
2. The patient will need treatment in the future: the patient will be monitored every 3 months and the doctor will start when necessary, giving him or her a records appointment at which to draw up a complete file on his or her condition.
3. The patient needs treatment: the patient is given a records appointment at which to draw up a complete file on his or her condition. At a third appointment, following an analysis of the results, he or she will receive the diagnosis along with the treatment plan.
