Starting Your Smile Journey at CT Braces
What Happens at Your First Orthodontist Appointment
We’re so excited to welcome you to the CT Braces family! Whether you’re exploring treatment for yourself or your child, your first visit is a big step. From the moment you walk through our doors, you’ll feel the difference in a warm, welcoming
environment where your comfort comes first.
Your first consultation is free, and it’s all about getting to know you, your goals, and your smile. Here’s what typically happens during your visit:
- Check-in with our friendly, bilingual staff
- Photos and X-rays to help us understand your smile
- Digital scans using our iTero Scanne (no goopy impressions needed)
- A full orthodontic exam from one of our board-certified doctors
- Discussion of treatment options, including braces and Invisalign®
- Time to ask questions and get honest, helpful answers
- Custom treatment plan review, with timelines and payment options
What Happens After Your Initial Consultation?
Once you’ve had your free consultation, you’ll have everything you need to decide how and when to start your orthodontic treatment. The best part is that you don’t have to wait! CT Braces offers same-day starts for both braces and Invisalign, so you can begin your smile transformation right away.
Regular visits are an important part of your orthodontic journey, and at CT Braces, we make it easy to stay on track. You’ll typically visit us every 6 to 8 weeks so we can check your progress, make adjustments, and keep your treatment moving forward. These appointments are quick, comfortable, and give you the chance to ask questions or address any concerns.
Absolutely! While CT Braces takes care of your orthodontic treatment, your general dentist remains a key part of your oral health team.
Routine dental checkups and cleanings are just as important during
orthodontic care as they were before you started. Keeping up with your dental visits helps prevent issues like cavities and gum disease, which could delay your treatment. We’ll work in partnership with your dentist
to ensure your smile stays healthy throughout your treatment.
