As a courtesy to you and your dentist, there is NO CHARGE for this
initial visit and you are under no obligation to continue with any
other appointments.
On your first visit to our office, you will be greeted by our new
patient coordinator. She'll go over your medical/dental
history questionnaire and speak with you in depth about what your
goals are. Digital photographs will be taken to allow you to see
in more detail your teeth in alignment and your bite.
Dr. Meritt will then do a complete orthodontic evaluation and based
on this clinical exam, will make a diagnosis and recommend treatment
if indicated.
This appointment takes approximately 45 minutes. The digital photographs,
diagnosis/treatment recommendations and menu of payment options
will be provided in a take-home folder allowing the parent not present
at the first visit to view them at home.
Please help us be prepared for your first appointment by completing this Patient Information and Medical History form. Download a form below to your computer, print it out, complete the form, and bring it with you to your first appointment.

The treatment fee depends on the severity of the patient’s
problem. You will be able to discuss fees and payment options with
our financial coordinator at this visit. We offer
several payment options to suit different budgets. We also accept
assignment from most insurance plans and will file the necessary
paperwork for you.
We work hard to make orthodontic treatment affordable. In an effort
to keep costs
down while maintaining the highest level of patient care, we have
established the
following policies:
- If payment is made in full at the start of treatment,
we will offer a discount ( if you have insurance, this applies
to the portion of the fee not covered by insurance).
- Payments may be extended over a period of months
with no interest.
- We even offer a no money down option with third
party financing.
- For your convenience, we accept payment by
VISA, MASTERCARD and
DISCOVER CARD.
