We can’t wait to meet you! Your first visit to OWTAD Orthodontics is designed to be comfortable, informative, and stress-free. Our goal is to help you fully understand your oral health and orthodontic needs, so you can make confident, informed decisions about your smile.

Here’s what you can expect during your first appointment:

What to Expect at Your First Visit

1. Warm Welcome

You’ll be greeted by our friendly front desk team and guided through any remaining paperwork. To save time, we encourage completing your forms online before your visit whenever possible.

2. Comprehensive Orthodontic Evaluation

Dr. Owtad will perform a thorough orthodontic examination, which may include:

• Complimentary clinical photos
• Panoramic X-rays
• A 3D digital scan of your teeth

These tools help us gain a complete understanding of your bite, alignment, and overall oral health.

After your exam, Dr. Owtad will review his findings with you and discuss whether orthodontic treatment is recommended. Together, you’ll explore treatment options such as:

• Braces
• Aligners (invisalign & Spark)
• Comprehensive or premium treatment plans

Our goal is to help you understand what’s possible and what makes the most sense for you.

4. Questions Welcome

We encourage questions! This is your time to ask about:

• Treatment timelines

We want you to feel informed, confident, and comfortable every step of the way.

✨ Same-Day Starts Available!
