First Visit

We look forward to meeting you on your first visit to our office. At your first appointment, Dr. Shok will conduct a thorough dental, facial and TMJ exam. We will also provide you with complimentary computerized digital imaging. Dr. Shok and his staff will explain your orthodontic condition in great detail, and provide you with all the possible treatment alternatives. The treatment fee and payment options will also be discussed. We encourage questions from both the patient and the parent, and as such, we provide ample time to answer your questions.

Records

Orthodontic records are necessary diagnostic data that facilitate and verify the appropriate treatment. These records include study models of the teeth, photographs and radiographs of the teeth and facial bones.

Open Communication

We believe that good orthodontic care begins with open communication. We promise to speak openly with you about our diagnosis and recommendations, any alternative treatments, and any symptoms present that may require further treatment. Working together, we can achieve a true partnership, with one common goal - helping you achieve a attractive and confident smile!
