April 20, 2024

Your first orthodontic consultation is an exciting step toward achieving the smile you've always wanted. At White Brown Smiles, we aim to make this experience as informative and comfortable as possible. Our skilled team, led by Dr. Kerry White Brown, is here to walk you through each stage of the process so you can feel confident and knowledgeable about your orthodontic choices.

A Warm Welcome and Initial Assessment

When you arrive for your first orthodontic consultation, you'll be greeted by our welcoming team, who are dedicated to making you feel right at home. We recognize that a trip to the orthodontist can cause anxiety for some patients, which is why we aim to foster a calm and welcoming environment.

The initial assessment is a crucial part of your consultation. Dr. Kerry White Brown will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, jaw, and oral health. This helps us understand your unique orthodontic needs and goals. We utilize cutting-edge technology, such as the iTero 3D Scanner, to obtain intricate images of your teeth, enabling us to design your treatment with meticulous precision and accuracy.

Discussing Treatment Options

Once the initial assessment is complete, we'll discuss the various treatment options available to you. Whether you're considering traditional braces, clear braces, or Invisalign, Dr. White Brown will explain the benefits and processes of each option. We believe that each patient is entitled to a treatment plan customized to their unique needs and lifestyle.

At your initial orthodontic consultation, we invite you to ask questions and express any concerns you might have. Our goal is to provide you with all the information you need to make an informed decision about your orthodontic care. We pride ourselves on our transparency and commitment to patient education, ensuring you have a clear understanding of what each treatment entails.

Financial Planning and Affordable Options

At White Brown Smiles, we understand that orthodontic treatment is a significant investment. Our team will work with you to create a financial plan that fits your budget, ensuring that high-quality care is accessible to everyone. During your first orthodontic consultation, we'll discuss our flexible payment plans and review your insurance options.

Our dedication lies in providing affordable orthodontic treatment while ensuring that quality remains uncompromised. Our team will ensure you understand all costs involved, providing you with peace of mind as you begin your orthodontic journey.

A Personalized and Supportive Experience

Dr. White Brown and her team are committed to delivering tailored care that meets your goals and expectations. We understand that each patient is distinct, and we customize our treatment plans to meet your specific needs. During your first orthodontic consultation, we'll take the time to get to know you and understand your preferences, ensuring a supportive and collaborative approach to your care.

Our practice is renowned for its community impact, with Dr. White Brown being a role model and advocate for patient care and community service. Our goal is to foster an environment of warmth and inclusivity, ensuring that each patient feels appreciated and honored.

Next Steps in Your Orthodontic Journey

After your first orthodontic consultation, you'll have a clear understanding of your treatment options and a personalized plan to achieve your dream smile. We'll schedule your next appointment and discuss the timeline for your treatment. Whether you decide on braces or Invisalign, rest assured that you're in expert hands with Dr. White Brown and our dedicated team.

At White Brown Smiles, we're excited to be part of your orthodontic journey. We invite you to take the first step by scheduling a complimentary consultation with us. Your path to a beautiful and healthy smile starts here, and we're here to support you every step of the way!

Joya M.
I had such a great experience today thanks to Shala! She was my assistant while getting my braces put on, and she made the whole process so much easier. We were talking and laughing the entire time it really helped calm my nerves. Shala was super friendly, professional, and made me feel comfortable from start to finish. Thank you for making what could’ve been a stressful appointment actually enjoyable!
Monaa S.
It was literally a vibe the entire time!!! Shala was amazing!! I love her ♥️

I got my braces put on today and myg Shala made sure that the process went very smoothly I just met her today but feels like I known her for forever lol. So if you’re ever thinking about getting braces or feel like you need them or just want a new SMILE come to White Brown Smiles on Oneil Court

Jalonda W.
Let me start by saying, I’ve been to a consultation for braces before but I don’t remember it being this warm and welcoming. Everyone was nice, very informative and explained everything they were doing every step of the way. I went to the Oburg location, Dr. Brown was very thorough and quick, I can see why her office was recommended. Looking forward to my journey with her the next 3 years! And also the plan was very much affordable to get started.

"From the moment I stepped into Rosevelt's office, I knew I was in excellent hands. His charismatic and polite demeanor instantly put me at ease, and his professional manners shone through in every interaction. With a decade of experience under his belt, Dr. Rosevelt clearly knows his craft. He took the time to explain every step of my orthodontic journey, ensuring I felt informed and comfortable. What truly sets him apart is the amazing customer service he and his team provide. It's rare to find a dental professional who is not only skilled but also genuinely cares about their patients' well-being. If you're looking for an orthodontist who delivers exceptional results with a smile, Rosevelt is the one!"

Ed & Liz S.
We are in the middle of the braces process for my son in middle school, and we have had a terrific experience so far with the doctor and all her technicians! The one time that we had trouble with something, they brought us right back in and found a solution right away. They are really great about answering all my questions since this is the first time we have dealt with braces.
