What to Expect on Your First Appointment

Each individual’s orthodontic situation is different and deserves personalized attention. Your initial visit is an important opportunity for us to get to know you and your unique smile goals. We believe that orthodontic problems involve more than just teeth, so we look at the entire facial structure when treating our patients.

On your first visit, Dr. Kozak will perform a comprehensive orthodontic examination to determine the status of your orthodontic health. If he determines that orthodontic care is necessary, we will make a recommendation based on your specific situation, explaining the procedures involved, how long treatment should take, and the cost and payment options available to you. Our goal at Kozak Orthodontics is to educate our patients so they may make an informed decision that best suits their goals.

How Treatment Works:

We base each individualized treatment plan on your health history, clinical examination, and diagnostic records. This enables us to make informed decisions in determining what type of appliance will provide the best results.

Our treatment time philosophy is based on efficiency and effectiveness, and our goal is to achieve the best result in the shortest period of time. Kozak Orthodontics uses the latest in diagnostic technologies, treatment planning, and appliances. Dr. Kozak sees each patient, each visit. This type of one-on-one care is part of our practice philosophy and integral to our commitment to quality care.

To make sure your first visit is as seamless and productive as possible, we’ve created a First Appointment Checklist.
