A clear, comfortable start
Your first visit is a chance to get straightforward answers from a specialist, without pressure to make a decision that day.
What to expect at your first visit
At Caruso Orthodontics, your complimentary consultation is much more than a quick look at your teeth. We take the time to get to know you, understand your concerns, and perform a comprehensive evaluation of your orthodontic needs.
During your consultation, we take detailed diagnostic photographs of your teeth and smile, use our iTero® intraoral scanner to create a highly accurate 3D digital model of your teeth, and perform a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, bite, and TMJ. We also evaluate your overall orthodontic development and jaw relationships, then discuss our findings and explain any recommended treatment options.
Dr. Caruso or Dr. Micaroni will personally take the time to listen to your questions and concerns and explain our recommendations so that you feel comfortable and confident about your treatment.
Following your examination, one of our experienced treatment coordinators will review your treatment costs, insurance benefits, and available payment options. We work with almost all insurance companies and can also help you maximize eligible HSA and FSA benefits. Our team handles the necessary insurance paperwork and claims for you, helping make the process as simple and convenient as possible.
Our goal is for you to leave your first visit understanding your orthodontic needs, your treatment options, and your investment, without ever feeling pressured to begin treatment.
