The fun begins! Our treatment is designed to work around-the-clock, but it needs special help to stay on the right course. Keeping the appointment schedule set by Dr. White is important! Appointments are typically every 12-16 weeks with clear aligners (but even less often when using Dental Monitoring) and 5-7 weeks with braces. We understand that doctor appointments can be inconvenient when juggling work & school & extracurriculars, so we try to combine family appointments when possible to fit busy lifestyles. Appointment breakdown: Clear Aligners (20-30 minutes)

• We check the fit of the aligners and ensure that the teeth are tracking properly
• Attachments may be placed, repositioned, or removed
• We may take progress photos
• We deliver additional aligners

Conventional Brackets (30-40 minutes)

• We remove the colored ties & wires on the braces, then let you give your teeth a good brushing
• We make adjustments to the brackets and wires
• You pick new tie colors

Orthodontic treatment is teamwork. It involves the doctor & YOU. There are several steps you can take to ensure the best & quickest route to your beautiful, healthy smile:

• Keep Regular Appointments

Sticking to Dr. White’s recommended schedule ensures the fastest treatment time.

• Take Good Care

Brushing & flossing is very important during orthodontic treatment. While Invisalign’s® clear aligners can be used to get a beautiful smile, it is extremely important to properly care for them to avoid undesired results. The same goes for braces! We don’t want to see permanent stains when those brackets come off (& trust us, neither do you!). Dr. White takes this part of treatment seriously & requires commitments from patients & parents to avoid those undesired results. He & the team will give you all the tools necessary & give regular updates on how you are progressing.

• Watch What You Eat

Invisalign® offers quite an advantage when it comes to food. Nothing is off limits! Braces, on the other hand, require careful decisions. Tooth movement is best achieved when brackets & buttons are attached to the teeth, so sticking to a braces-friendly diet will ensure less emergencies & uninterrupted treatment.
