Your First Orthodontic Visit in Greensboro, NC

Your first visit to Robert Stoner Orthodontics is a free, no-obligation consultation that lasts about an hour. We perform a thorough exam, take any diagnostic records we need (digital X-rays, photos, and a 3-D airway and facial analysis), and discuss your treatment options, your timeline, and your investment, so you leave with a clear plan and a written quote.

We are always excited to meet new patients, and we want your first visit to answer all your questions. This appointment gives us the insight we need to understand your orthodontic needs and recommend the right path, whether that is starting treatment soon, waiting for the right stage of growth, or simply monitoring development. Best of all, there is no charge for this initial consultation.

What to Expect

Your initial appointment includes a complete examination and a conversation about your options. Because we know your time is valuable, we gather the diagnostic records we need during this same visit, including digital X-rays, photographs, and a 3-D airway and facial analysis, so we can build an accurate treatment plan without extra trips. Plan for about an hour.

During the exam, we will answer questions like:

• Is there a condition that orthodontics can address?
• Is treatment needed now, or should it wait for further growth or tooth eruption?
• What treatment approach will correct the problem?
• Will any permanent teeth need to be removed?
• How long will treatment take?
• What will it cost, and what are my payment options?

We also work closely with your family dentist throughout your care to give you the healthiest, most beautiful result possible.

What Happens Next?

If treatment is recommended and you are ready to begin, we will schedule your start around your schedule, and in many cases you can even begin the same day. If the timing is not right yet, we will set up a simple monitoring plan and see you again when the time comes.

What Your Treatment Includes

We believe in clear, comprehensive pricing with no hidden charges. Your treatment fee covers:

• Orthodontic records: the X-rays, digital models, and growth study used to plan your care.
• Active treatment: all appliances, office visits, and in-office procedures for your full treatment, whether early treatment or comprehensive braces or clear aligners. Appliances are durable and should last your entire treatment when you follow care instructions. A replacement fee applies only if an appliance is lost or damaged through misuse.
• Your first set of retainers upon completing comprehensive treatment. Additional or replacement retainers carry a fee.
