Frequently asked questions

You deserve to understand your options.

Do I need a referral?

You can contact DesignWise directly to arrange a visit. Tell us what you would like to change about your smile, and our team will help you take the next step.

How do I choose between braces and clear aligners?

The right choice depends on your bite, your goals, and the routine you can maintain. At your evaluation, we will explain the options that suit your smile and what each involves.

Is orthodontic treatment just for children?

No. We see children, teens, and adults. Your orthodontist will assess your teeth, gums, and bite before recommending whether and when to begin treatment.

How much will treatment cost?

Your fee depends on your individual treatment plan. Ask our team for an itemized estimate and a review of available payment arrangements and your insurance benefits before you decide.

What happens at the first visit?

We talk about your goals, review your dental and health history, and examine your smile. The team will explain any records needed and discuss the next steps with you.

Can I visit the Arnold office?

Please contact our team for the latest Arnold location and appointment information. We can help you choose the right place for your visit.
