School will soon be back in full swing. Most people seeking orthodontic treatment have important obligations during the day, whether for work or school. During active orthodontic treatment, our patient’s are usually seen about every 5-6 weeks.  Some of these appointments will conflict with work or school schedules. We have put much time and effort into designing our scheduling system to provide you with excellence in orthodontic treatment. Every patient’s treatment will require some appointments during school or work hours. We schedule longer appointments during school hours and shorter appointments before or after school. By doing this, we do not reserve an entire afternoon for one or two patients, but rather accommodate as many families as possible for before and after school appointments.  If you prefer to come to our office during quieter time, we suggest scheduling appointments during school hours.  Your cooperation with scheduling appointments would be greatly appreciated. We will do all we can to minimize the amount of time you will need to miss work or school. Thank you.
