Important Questions to Ask Your Orthodontist

Go The Extra Smile!

Garlock Orthodontics
October 26, 2020

Here at Garlock Orthodontics, we are here to help you achieve the smile of your dreams! To make sure you’re getting the most out of your orthodontic treatment, there are a few questions you should feel free to ask! We try to be as thorough as possible, but we know you’ll likely have questions for us as well.  

Your First Visit

You will probably have the most questions during your first visit as you learn more about your orthodontic treatment. Questions may include the following: 

  • What orthodontic issues do I have?
  • How can we fix these problems?
  • What are my options for treatment?
  • How long will my treatment take?

Additional Follow-Up Visits

Once your orthodontic treatment has begun, follow-up visits are a necessity. During these appointments, Dr. Garlock will examine your smile, make necessary tweaks to your treatment plan, and make sure you’re on the right track. Questions you may want to ask during these appointments include:

  • How is my treatment progressing? 
  • What foods should I avoid? 
  • What can I improve upon to keep my treatment on track?
  • Approximately how much longer will treatment last? 
  • As well as any other questions you may have.

At Garlock Orthodontics, we are happy to answer any questions you may have. We believe that well-informed dental patients are more confident in their dental health-related decisions and experience more successful treatment outcomes! 

To schedule a consultation or make an appointment for a follow-up visit, please call Garlock Orthodontics in Aurora, Colorado.

Sarah P.
Garlock was so professional. We felt like we received great advice on how to correct my son’s issue. I appreciate Dr Garlock’s conservative approach. The quote was reasonable vs other orthodontists. And when we came in for the dental work Kimberly was so gentle and great with my son.
Bailey G.
I seriously can’t say enough good things about this office. From the moment you walk in, everyone is so kind, welcoming, and genuinely cares. The staff takes the time to explain everything, answers all my questions, and makes sure I’m comfortable at every visit. They’re professional, efficient, and somehow still make appointments feel easy and stress-free. I’m so happy with my experience so far and would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing orthodontic team!

Five stars all the way! The staff is so friendly and they’ve created a truly positive atmosphere that makes every appointment a breeze.

Always a great experience at Garlock Orthodontist. I appreciate the kind staff, always easy to book an appointment and Dr Garlock is always very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about the best plan for my son. We are on phase 2 and it has been a great experience! My son broke a wire at school and we were able to make same day “freakout” appointment to get it fixed before the weekend! Extremely thankful! We are halfway done and can’t wait to see the final results!

Jayne A.
Very clean and inviting office space. Staff are friendly and very receptive to the needs and insecurities of the children coming in for ortho work. Kids are reassured that what their teeth look like now will be very different with time. Very reassuring. I have 3 grandchildren and spouse who come here for treatment. Invisalign & braces. Best place ever!! Dr. Garlock is friendly, understanding, and comforting to children who are apprehensive about treatment. The process is explained in a way that children understand what is going to take place and are comfortable asking questions. Glad we found this orthodontist office. 5+ 🌟 without a doubt!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Jayne. We're delighted to hear that our inviting space and supportive staff have made a positive impact on your family's orthodontic experience. We appreciate your trust in us!
