Your First Visit

What to Expect at Your Initial Consultation

Dr. Gorin's warm and cheerful orthodontic staff will welcome you as soon as you arrive to the office. Dr. Gorin will perform a gentle examination that usually reveals a great deal about the patient’s orthodontic situation. If the examination indicates that treatment is necessary, Dr. Gorin will need a little more information so that a comprehensive plan can be developed. All the information that Dr. Gorin requires is obtained during a diagnostic records appointment. The records can be taken on the day of your initial consultation.

Dr. Gorin uses the information obtained from your diagnostic records to develop a comprehensive treatment plan. X-rays, photos and an intra-oral scan will be taken at this visit. The data is then uploaded to our computers so that Dr. Gorin can perform a detailed analysis. Specific landmarks on the x-rays and scans are digitized so that growth patterns, space availability and responses to proposed treatment can be evaluated. The diagnostic records appointment takes about 30 minutes.

Dr. Gorin will devote his complete attention to you and the presentation of your plan once your diagnostic material is reviewed. Treatment options, appliance selection, fees, payment plans, and insurance contributions will be explored. Orthodontic treatment can then begin the very same day.
