Is the orthodontic consultation really free?
Yes. The first consultation is free, and there is no obligation to start treatment. Plenty of consults end with a plan, and plenty end with an honest "not yet, let's check back."
Do I need a referral?
No. You can book directly. If your family dentist mentioned crowding, a crossbite or another concern, tell us when we call so the orthodontist knows what to look at.
What age should my child have a first orthodontic visit?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first orthodontic evaluation by age seven. At that age most kids have a mix of baby and permanent teeth, which is enough to see how the bite is developing. Many children are evaluated at seven and do not begin treatment for years, if at all.
Do you treat teens and adults?
Yes. Our orthodontists treat kids, teens and adults with braces and Invisalign, and plenty of parents start their own treatment at the office their kids already go to. See all orthodontic care.
How much do braces cost?
Most braces cases in the Richmond area run $3,000 to $7,000. We check your insurance first, offer payment plans and give you a written estimate at your free consultation, before anything is scheduled. More on what braces cost.
Does Medicaid cover braces?
Virginia Medicaid covers braces only when a case meets the state's medical necessity criteria under Cardinal Care, and that is decided case by case. Our team can help you understand where your child stands.
Braces or Invisalign?
Both are available, along with Spark clear aligners. At the consultation the orthodontist explains which options fit your case and why. Braces in Richmond and Invisalign in Richmond.
