Office Visits

Initial Orthodontic Exam

Our goal is to provide each of our patients and their families with the highest quality orthodontic care. Your first visit with Dr. Rose and Dr. Pulver will enable them to begin the evaluation of your orthodontic condition and determine if orthodontic treatment is recommended. In order to complete your diagnosis and develop a treatment plan, we will need to obtain orthodontic diagnostic records, which typically include plaster study models of your teeth, photos of your face and teeth, and orthodontic X-rays. This information is used to develop a custom treatment plan, just for you. These records are also helpful in tracking your treatment progress as your teeth move under orthodontic care. Many times, your orthodontic records can be made on the same day as your initial examination.

Once Dr. Rose and Dr. Pulver have evaluated the diagnostic material, they will explain their findings at the orthodontic consultation appointment, when you'll also go over treatment options, fees, and payment plans.

During your initial consultation, Dr. Rose and Dr. Pulver will review:

• What sort of orthodontic problems are present, if any
• Whether or not orthodontic treatment is necessary, and when treatment should begin
• Treatment options
• Approximate number of months of active orthodontic treatment
• Approximate cost of treatment, payment plans, and dental plan information
• Medical history

Scheduling Appointments

Your orthodontic appliance placement appointment is when Dr. Pulver and Dr. Rose places the orthodontic brackets on your teeth. This process usually takes about an hour, after which you can be on your way toward a straighter, happier smile.

After Dr. Rose and Dr. Pulver have placed your orthodontic appliance, follow-up appointments are usually scheduled every five to eight weeks. These appointments take about 30 minutes, depending on what treatment is to be performed.

Our office will make every effort to be on time, and we ask that our office be extended the same courtesy. If you or your child will be late or cannot make an appointment, please let us know as soon as possible. Appointments can be rescheduled, so please contact our office at (281) 493-2370 if there is a need to change an appointment day or time.
