Consultation

If you’re considering orthodontic care for yourself or your child, a free orthodontic consultation can provide a wealth of information. These visits allow you to meet with Jean Seibold McGill, DDS, MS, PC, and the team at McGill Orthodontics in Easton and Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, to learn more about what treatments might be right for you. Booking a visit takes just moments online or over the phone.

When should I come in for a free orthodontic consultation?

If you’re thinking about having orthodontic treatment as an adult, feel free to schedule a consultation at any time you like. Many adults feel they’ve somehow “missed out” on having braces or other orthodontic treatment during childhood.

In reality, adult braces offer the same chance to improve your smile as well as your bite. Schedule your free orthodontic consultation to explore your options. 

If you’re considering orthodontic treatment for your child, the best time to come in is around the age of seven. This timing allows your orthodontist to catch any alignment issues in the early stages when interventions can ease later orthodontic treatment.

What happens during a consultation?

During the initial visit, Dr. McGill performs a quick assessment of your bite. Digital impressions might be done to gather more in-depth information about your alignment. We will take a Panorex radiograph and photos at this visit. 

The next step is a discussion of your treatment goals and your lifestyle. This helps Dr. McGill guide you toward the options best suited for your specific set of needs. 

You can also discuss the cost of various treatment options as well as how your insurance might cover part or all of your care. There are options that can make orthodontic treatment align with your budget. 

Do I have to come to the office for a consultation?

Most people choose to come in for an office visit to complete their free orthodontic consultation. An in-office visit allows you to meet the team and experience the warm and welcoming office environment. 

In-office visits also make it possible to have digital impressions done during your appointment. This advanced imaging is a great way to understand exactly how orthodontic treatment can improve your smile. 

If an in-office visit is not possible, McGill Orthodontics also offers virtual visits. A virtual consultation is a great alternative for patients who have a compromised immune system or other medical conditions. It’s also a convenient way to work a free consultation into your busy schedule.

In order to make the most of your virtual consultation, your orthodontic team needs to see photos of your teeth. Visit the practice website for detailed instructions on how to take and send these photos prior to your appointment.

If you’d like more information about a free orthodontic consultation, call the office to book a visit. Online scheduling is also available, allowing you to book from the comfort of home, any time of day or night.
