Your First Visit


Our objective is to make sure your visits with us will be pleasant and informative. Your initial appointment will consist of an examination and a discussion of potential treatment options. This important visit will address the orthodontic needs of you or your child.

Please assist us by providing the following information at the time of your first visit:

  • Any x-rays (if applicable)
  • A list of medications you are presently taking
  • If you have medical or dental insurance, bring the necessary completed forms. This will save time and allow us to help you process any claims.
  • Completed online or printed patient registration forms.



Please alert the office if you have a medical condition that may be of concern (i.e. diabetes, high blood pressure, artificial heart valves and joints, rheumatic fever, etc.) or if you are on any medication (i.e. heart medications, aspirin, anticoagulant therapy, etc.)

Broken Appointments: If for some reason you cannot make it to your appointment, please contact our office at (928) 634-2121. By doing so you allow another patient to use that time as well as reschedule your appointment. If it is after hours leave your name and number and a brief message on our answering machine and we will return your call in the morning.

There will be fewer of the longer, more complicated appointments. These are scheduled early in the day during work or school hours which allows us to give you the attention needed for more complicated procedures.

Cancelled or missed appointments can adversely affect your progress.

Please be on time. Your appointment may only be ten minutes long, If you are late your allotted time may be over, and to see you would put others behind. We retain the right to reschedule any late arrivals as necessary. We will endeavor to stay on time as well.

Tip: Always schedule your next appointment before you leave the office. This allows you the broadest selection in appointment times.
