Scheduling Appointments

We value your time and understand the importance of minimizing time missed at school or work. We schedule appointments so that each patient receives a fair share of convenient appointments. This approach allows us to minimize the number of appointments, which are necessary during school or work hours.

Please allow the following time for each appointment type:

• Initial Examination – 15 to 20 minutes
• Records – 30 minutes
• Consultation – 30 minutes
• Initial Bonding - 90 minutes
• Adjustment Appointments – 15 to 20 minutes

Late arrivals

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. In fairness to the other scheduled patients, if you are more than 15 minutes late we may not be able to accomplish your entire prescheduled procedure and may find it necessary to reschedule your appointment.

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. We will work with you to reschedule appointments at the patient's and office's earliest convenience.

Rescheduling

Your scheduled appointment time has been reserved specifically for you. Please contact us at least 24 hours prior to your scheduled appointment if you need to cancel your appointment. We are aware that unforeseen events sometimes require missing an appointment.

We are open to serve you, answer questions or schedule an appointment Monday – Thursday from 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
