What to Expect
Achieving the most beautiful smile starts here. Consultations with our board-certified orthodontists in Leawood are offered at no charge.
At an appointment, you can expect to have a set of pictures taken of the inside of your mouth (intraoral) and of your facial profile (extraoral). We will also take digital x-ray images so we can see your jaw and tooth structures that are below the gum line.
We will give you a treatment recommendation if needed as well as a clear explanation of any fees associated with that treatment. We will also verify and present what insurance benefit can be applied toward that treatment. You will leave this initial 60-minute appointment with all of your treatment and financial questions answered.
