Your First Visit

Welcome to Berger Orthodontics! We are delighted to have you and look forward to starting your journey toward a healthier, more beautiful smile. Here’s what you can expect during your first visit to our office.

Upon arrival at Berger Orthodontics, please notify our friendly receptionist. We strive to make your experience as smooth and pleasant as possible. For your convenience, we offer an online health history form that you can complete before your scheduled appointment. This helps us gather necessary information ahead of time, ensuring a seamless check-in process.

During your first visit, we will take comprehensive diagnostic records to assess your orthodontic needs accurately. These records typically include photographs, a 3D scan, and a personalized growth study workup. This detailed evaluation allows Dr. Michael Berger to determine the best course of orthodontic treatment tailored specifically for you.

Dr. Berger will conduct a thorough clinical orthodontic examination and personally explain all aspects of the proposed treatment. The initial examination is designed to answer several key questions:

  • What sort of orthodontic problem is present, if any?
  • When is the proper time to begin treatment?
  • What type of treatment is indicated?
  • How long will the treatment take?
  • How much will the treatment cost?

If orthodontic treatment is indicated at this time, we will schedule an appointment to begin treatment. In some cases, and if time allows, we can even start treatment during your initial visit. Our treatment coordinator will discuss the treatment fees and various payment options with you during this visit to ensure that orthodontics is affordable and fits within your budget.

To get started on your path to a perfect smile, contact us to schedule your free consultation. We can’t wait to welcome you to our office and provide you with exceptional orthodontic care!
