Frequently Asked Questions
How long is the consultation and what will happen at the consultation?
The consultation typically lasts about 60 minutes.
The first 20 minutes of the consultation is dedicated to taking full orthodontic records including photos and x-rays at no charge which will assist our orthodontist in planning you or your child’s treatment.
During the next 40 minutes you will meet the orthodontist and have a 1-on-1 discussion with our treatment coordinator about possible orthodontic treatments. During this time, you will have the opportunity to discuss any orthodontic and dental problems you may be concerned about.
What will I learn from the consultation?
There are 5 essential questions that we will cover during the consultation:
- Is there an orthodontic problem, and if so, what is it?
- What treatment options are available to you to correct the problem? (i.e. braces, Invisalign, expander, etc.)
- What is the estimated length of treatment?
- What is the total cost of treatment?
- What payment options are available?
Is there a cost associated with the consultation?
No, the consultation is completely FREE. This includes an examination, all photos and x-rays (orthodontic records), and a 30 minute consultation with our treatment coordinators and orthodontists.
We want you to be completely comfortable and well-informed in your decision making process.
Are there any hidden fees with the consultation?
There are no hidden fees. The entire consultation, including all photos, x-rays and the assessment by our orthodontist are completely free.
Can I have a consultation at one clinic and then be treated in another?
Yes! Of course you can. You can have a consultation in any clinic you wish, and then begin treatment in the clinic that is most convenient for you. Our patients are free to transfer between clinics whenever they want.
If I have multiple family members, can they be seen for a free consultation at the same time?
Yes! Kindly give us a call at 403-202-9220 and we will try our best to accommodate you. If our schedule permits, we may be able see multiple family members back to back.
I would like a second opinion. Can I come in for a free consultation?
Of course! Second opinions are welcome! We hope that at the end of the consultation, you are educated, informed and able to make the best decision for you and your family.
Are your services provided by orthodontists or general dentists?
Our services are provided by orthodontists. Orthodontists are dentists who, after finishing 4 years of dental school, then went to orthodontic school for another 3 years for extensive training with braces, Invisalign, expanders, bite correction appliances, etc. The only thing our doctors do – all day, every day – is straighten teeth! Our orthodontists will straighten teeth on hundreds of patients per year and thousands of patients in their lifetime.
On the contrary, most general dentists don’t do any orthodontics. The few that do treat only a handful of cases per year, and usually these cases are very simple cases (ie. retreatment of a patient who previously had braces but stopped wearing their retainers and teeth shifted slightly).
Orthodontics is something you only want to go through and pay for once, so trust your smile to a specialist 🙂
