Your First Visit

What to Expect From Your First Visit

At Power Orthodontics, we see ourselves as so much more than “just another” oral care provider. We want to be seen as a true partner in every sense of the term – one that is every bit as invested in your success as you are yourself. You’ll love meeting our caring and compassionate team. In fact, read our New Patient Welcome Letter and learn what to expect here.

All of this will be immediately evident during your first visit to Power Orthodontics, which you’ll no doubt be pleased to know is 100% complimentary. We would never want to charge you for an experience so important – especially since it’s also designed to put us in the best possible position to learn exactly what we need to help you accomplish your goals (and then some).

This first visit will take a decidedly more personal approach than you may be used to with other providers, as a big part of what we want to do involves just getting to know our patients better. We want to learn about your oral history and what brought you into the office, sure – but we also want to know about you as a person. We want to know about the types of things that get you excited and about what we have in common. In other words, we want to begin a genuine relationship in every sense of the term – and one that will serve us both well for years to come.

After that part of the process has passed, we’ll use your first visit to Power Orthodontics as an opportunity to perform a comprehensive exam so that we know exactly what we’re dealing with. This will include x-rays, photographs, and other tools that we’ll be able to use to better understand not only your current situation but what we have to do to accomplish everything you have in mind for yourself.

Answering Your Questions

We’ll also go out of our way to address any main concerns that you may have or to answer any questions that may be lingering. We never want to feel like we’re rushing you out the door, and more than anything else, we want to SHOW, not TELL, you how much we care about your ongoing health and success.

Then, we’ll move on to discussing treatment options that may be ideal given your own unique situation. We’ll go over each option in great detail and discuss the pros and cons of each. Ultimately, which course of treatment you’ll go with will be your decision alone to make. Every patient is a little bit different from the next, and there really is no “one size fits all” approach to treatment. Something that works well for one patient may not be adequate for the next, which is why we want to lay it all out on the table and make sure you understand the advantages and disadvantages of each option. This is also why we also offer Same Day Starts. We understand that everyone has different schedules and some schedules are more hectic than others. So for our patients that are always on the go, you can start treatment on your first office visit if our schedule allows!

Having said that, we still want to arm you with as much actionable information as possible so that you can make the most informed decision possible when it comes to your health.

Finally, given the type of treatment you’ve selected, we’ll go over not only the projected timeline of treatment with you but we’ll also discuss the financial side of the equation. When you walk out the door, you’ll know exactly how long your treatment will last, and you’ll know exactly how many ways you can choose to pay for it, given your needs. Don’t worry – we believe that everyone should know the joy of that perfect smile they’ve always wanted regardless of their financial situation, so we offer low down and low monthly payments as well as having a number of different payment options that you can choose from.

When you walk out the door, we don’t just want you to understand what treatment is going to accomplish. We want you to have confidence in your decision and to be excited about coming back – which really is the most important goal of all.

To find out more information about what your first visit will entail or to get answers to any other questions you might have, please don’t hesitate to contact Power Orthodontics today.

Jenny Jenny (.
Oak ridge office is so pleasant and bright, especially on a gloomy day. Lots of open space for waiting.

The clinton office is comfortable and very close to home.

All the people are friendly that we have spoken to.
Cindy D.
I am an adult that had to have braces to prepare for double jaw surgery. The team at Power Orthodontics was so great throughout my pre and post surgery. The front office was always kind and helpful. Getting me in when I needed an appointment. I would highly recommend them for any of your orthodontic needs.
Autumn C.
As an adult going into braces I appreciate the time and effort that Dr. Power’s team puts into their work. Dr. Power and his team made sure I was happy with the results and went above and beyond to make sure that I was taken care of. I cannot recommend them enough.
Jayce J.
I never make reviews, but this is well deserved. First time in the office and the wait was minimal, which is good for me because I was not born with patience:) the staff was kind and answered all my questions. Clean environment and everyone seemed happy with their jobs. Looks like the DR takes good care of this patients and staff. If you’re looking for care this is the place!!
Elijah P.
Amazing service and quality. Amazing Staff. Very reliable. Trustworthy. Very Flexible.
Erika B.
The whole team at Power and Pryse is absolutely amazing. From start to finish we were so happy with the entire process. Everyone there is so unbelievably helpful and welcoming. They take their time going over everything with you so you feel comfortable. I'm really glad we picked them for my daughters braces. They've made everything so easy.
Rylen L.
Amazing staff. They make it seem so fun having to have braces, so much so that they make me want to have them longer.
Kristin M.
Dr Power (and Dr Pryse before him) and the wonderful ladies in the office took care of my daughter for over 5 years. They referred us to THE BEST orthognatic surgeon and between her surgery and the care of her braces by Power Orthodontics, my daughter has much better self esteem and actually smiles with her teeth showing now, something she avoided doing for years! I can not recommend Power Orthodontics enough!
Elyza I.
Absolutely love this doctor and practice. He's one of the few who actually cares about proper airway and making sure kids have a functional beautiful smile. I highly recommend this practice!!
Amanda S.
Extremely Friendly service and your office visits are always super fast!!! We HIGHLY recommend!!
