Dr. Robert Iezman and his orthodontic team are always excited to meet new patients during their first visit to our office. We strive to make your experience as pleasant and comfortable as possible.

In our reception area, we provide a wide selection of magazines and access to wireless internet for our patients to enjoy.
Initial Visit and Examination
During your first visit, Dr. Robert Iezman and his team will meet with you to discuss your orthodontic needs. We’ll help determine which treatment options are best suited for you. This initial consultation provides the first piece of the information needed to develop a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs.
Diagnostic Records
To develop your treatment plan, we will take diagnostic records, including iTero Digital Study Models, Digital X-rays, and photographs. The iTero digital scanner provides painless 3D images of your teeth and bite, replacing traditional impressions for better accuracy. We’ll also perform a head or skull X-ray to assess jaw alignment and a panoramic X-ray to check the health and position of all teeth. Lastly, facial photographs will help us analyze your facial proportions and contours.
Review of Treatment Options
After reviewing the diagnostic records, we will discuss the orthodontic treatment options available for you. This includes an evaluation of different approaches, as well as a review of your treatment timeline, costs, and any necessary extractions if applicable.
Start your Treatment Plan
Once we have all the diagnostic information, we will finalize your treatment plan. We’ll provide a clear explanation of your options, expected timeline, and costs, and answer any questions you may have. This marks the next step towards beginning your orthodontic treatment.
What You Need to Bring
When you come in for your first visit, please bring any panoramic X-ray that was taken within the past few years. Additionally, if you have orthodontic insurance, be sure to bring your insurance card so we can provide you with a more accurate estimate of your treatment costs.
