What to Expect on Your First Visit

If this is your first visit to Saint Louis Orthodontist , your dentist will begin with a comprehensive evaluation. This means that you will meet with your doctor, receive an oral examination as well as any necessary x-rays or radiographs. Your doctor will also ask you about any pain, discomfort, or concerns you have and address those during this appointment.

If you have any records, X-rays, or radiographs from your previous dentist which are from the past five years, you should bring those with you. Both printed or digital formats are fine.

You will receive an automated telephone message two days in advance to remind you of the scheduled appointment for your first visit. If you need to reschedule, please call (321) 208-7934 at least 24 hours in advance of your scheduled appointment.
