Checklist for Choosing an Orthodontic Clinic
- Treating clinician — Confirm who will handle the consultation and treatment, and that person's qualifications and scope of care.
- Diagnosis and treatment plan — Ask how your current condition was diagnosed and what plan is being proposed.
- Orthodontic method — Confirm which appliances and methods are proposed and whether alternatives are available.
- Treatment duration — Ask the treating clinician about the expected duration and the factors that could affect it.
- Cost and what's included — Confirm the total cost, items that could incur additional charges, and payment methods.
- Visit schedule — Confirm the visit interval for each treatment stage and how to reschedule.
- Retainers and aftercare — Confirm the retainer and maintenance plan after treatment.
- Tests and equipment — Ask which tests are needed and how equipment information relates to your own care.
- If something feels wrong — Confirm how to contact the clinic and be seen if an appliance breaks or you experience pain.
Warning Signs to Watch For
- If you are being rushed to decide without an explanation of the treatment method and plan, ask for the explanation again and decide only after you fully understand.
- If the total cost and included items are unclear, ask for an itemized cost breakdown and the conditions under which extra charges apply.
- If the duration or outcome is promised definitively without an individual diagnosis, ask about the basis for that and the exceptions.
- If you are not told about retainers and the post-treatment maintenance plan, confirm that plan before starting treatment.
