Choosing an orthodontist is a very important and personal decision. Just as each patient is unique, so are their expectations. When you visit us at our office, we strive to make sure that your experience with us is individualized to meet your needs.
Complimentary Consultation
Our initial exam is free and includes photographs and diagnostic X-ray(s). Our goal is for you to leave your first appointment with a full appreciation of your orthodontic treatment options including fees, payment plans, and insurance considerations. We do this because we know your time is valuable, and we want to make exploring your orthodontic options as easy as possible! Call us at any time to set up an appointment to see if orthodontic treatment is right for you.
Drs. Trimmell and Anders are Orthodontic Specialists
While many dental professionals provide orthodontic care, Drs. Trimmell and Anders have obtained years of specialty training and limit their practice exclusively to orthodontic care. As a result, Drs. Trimmell and Anders focus 100% of their energy on staying at the leading edge of orthodontic treatment, ensuring you the most optimal and efficient treatment outcome. Additionally, we communicate our plan for your treatment with your general dentist to create a team effort focused on your dental health.
Personal Attention
You can rest assured that at every regularly scheduled appointment you will be seen by either Dr. Trimmell or Dr. Anders. This ensures that the doctors can use their specialized knowledge and experience to ensure treatment is progressing properly, and it also gives you the confidence to know any questions or concerns will be addressed when you need them to be. In addition, placement of the orthodontic brackets will be performed by either Dr. Trimmell or Dr. Anders and not an orthodontic assistant. We feel this essential to achieving the best result for you.
Superior Customer Service
Because orthodontics is generally a process that can take from several months to several years, Drs. Trimmell and Anders realize that providing a high level of customer service is extremely important. While everyone pays lip service to customer service, you'll quickly realize that we actually mean it!
Two Orthodontists, Two Locations, One Practice
We understand that your life is busy and that your time is valuable. As a result, we pride ourselves on seeing patients at or even before their scheduled appointment time. In addition, by having a two doctor practice, we are able to effectively double the number of appointment times available to you to accommodate your busy schedule. In order to give you even more available appointment times, we are open five days a week, which can't be said for many, if any other orthodontic practices in the area. We do everything we can to ensure you receive the most convenient appointment time and don't have to wait!
Enhanced Web Services
Through our website, our patients have the option to receive text message or e-mail appointment reminders, check their appointment times online and review their account information. Patients and/or parents are also able to make payments online through our secure payment system. This twenty-four hour, seven day a week service is a convenient way for our patients to stay connected to our office from home!
Convenient Insurance Processing
Our office accepts assignment of benefit from most major insurance carriers. This means that you are not required to fill out reimbursement forms as you might at other orthodontic offices. That allows you to get your maximum benefit with no headache!
Meticulous Sterilization
Our patients are not just members of the community. Many of our patients are our friends, relatives, staff members, and members of our immediate family. You can be assured that we follow all of the OSHA guidelines for sterilization techniques and will never cut any corners.
No Re-use of Braces or Wires
You can also be assured that all braces and wires used in our office are new and have not been previously used in someone else's mouth. We feel that each patient deserves the best and so in our office we DO NOT re-use the same brackets/wires on two different patients.
Cutting-Edge Technology
We are dedicated to providing you with the highest quality of care using the latest state-of-the-art technology. Our digital x-rays are faster than conventional x-rays and reduce exposure to radiation by up to 90 percent. We are a top provider of Invisalign, a clear alternative to braces that straightens your teeth without the appearance of braces.
Excellence in Orthodontics
Orthodontics is more popular than ever. This popularity is due to the overwhelming success of improved treatments and technology. New technology produces better results with fewer visits and shortened treatment times. In some cases, we can eliminate months of treatment time for individuals. One example of recent improvements is nickel-titanium-alloy archwires. These have replaced the traditional stainless steel wires used in braces. This new technology provides our patients with a temperature-sensitive wire that allows for continuous movement of the teeth over longer periods of time. For our patients, this means enhanced comfort, decreased treatment time and fewer trips to the orthodontist.
Cosmetic improvements are also on the forefront of advances in orthodontics. Popular choices of our patients are ceramic braces, a translucent material that camouflages the brackets on your teeth. Today, brackets are smaller, more comfortable and more durable than older-style braces. The smaller brackets bond directly to the teeth. If you are looking for braces without the “metal-mouth” appearance, you may want to consider clear ceramic braces.
The latest in invisible braces is Invisalign®. Invisalign uses clear, plastic aligners created from sophisticated 3-D computer imaging technology. They are comfortable, removable and invisible! Invisalign is a popular choice for adults who are ultimately concerned about the appearance of braces during normal daily activities. Invisalign can offer the flexibility of choosing to wear your braces at more convenient times of the day. Our office has been given the honor of "Premier Provider" by Invisalign.
