Know What to Expect Before You Walk In
Your First Visit
Your first visit at Bubon Orthodontics is a conversation, not a commitment. Our experienced orthodontic specialists take the time to evaluate your smile, answer your questions and explain your options clearly. There is no cost, no pressure and no obligation.
A Thorough Evaluation. Clear Answers.
Every consultation at Bubon Orthodontics is led by an experienced orthodontic specialist. This is not a quick screening. Your orthodontist will take the time to understand your smile, your concerns and your goals before making any recommendations.
1
Evaluate your bite and alignment
A comprehensive assessment of how your teeth, jaws and bite work together.
2
Review diagnostic imaging
Digital X-rays and photos help your orthodontist identify concerns that may not be visible during a clinical exam.
3
Explain what they find
Your orthodontist will walk you through their findings in plain language so you understand exactly where things stand.
4
Recommend a treatment path
If treatment is needed, your orthodontist will explain which option is best for your specific needs, why they recommend it and what to expect.
Consultations for Every Stage of Life
Whether you are considering treatment for yourself, your teen or your child, the first visit is designed to give you clarity.
Children
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends an evaluation by age seven. Even if treatment is not needed yet, early visits help us monitor growth and identify concerns before they become more complex.
Teens
The teen years are the most common time to begin treatment. Your consultation will help determine the right approach and the right timing.
Adults
Orthodontic treatment works at any age. Many adults are choosing braces or Invisalign to address concerns they have carried for years. Your consultation is the first step.
Cost, Insurance and Planning
Your consultation is completely free. If treatment is recommended, your Treatment Coordinator will provide a clear cost breakdown, review your insurance benefits and walk you through flexible, interest-free payment options.
We believe you should never feel uncertain about the financial side of orthodontic care. Our goal is transparency from the very first conversation.
Questions We Hear Often
How long does the first visit take?
Most consultations take about 60 minutes. This includes the evaluation, imaging, treatment discussion and financial review.
Will I get braces or start treatment at my first visit?
No. The first visit is an evaluation. If treatment is recommended, you will have time to review the plan, ask questions and schedule a start date that works for your schedule.
Can I schedule consultations for multiple family members?
Absolutely. We are happy to evaluate multiple family members during the same visit. Just let us know when you schedule so we can plan accordingly.
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. There is no cost and no obligation. The consultation is an opportunity for you to meet your orthodontist, understand your options and decide if treatment is right for you.
Do I need a referral from my dentist?
No referral is needed. You can schedule a consultation directly with our office.
What if my child is not ready for treatment?
If your child is not ready, your orthodontist may recommend observation. Children in this stage are welcomed into the Bubon Smile Squad, a program designed to make orthodontic monitoring feel positive and intentional.
