The information gathered during the initial examination and diagnostic recording are essential parts of providing quality orthodontics to you.

We personally diagnose each patient’s case based on the information gathered during an initial orthodontic examination and the capture and thorough review of diagnostic records. Diagnostic records are developed by taking bite impressions, photographs, and dental images. Dental impressions are needed to obtain accurate models of the teeth and dental arches so that we can measure their relationship to one another. Photographs and dental imaging will be used to determine where to move each of the teeth within the upper and lower jaws.
