Wondering how to get started? What to expect in treatment? How to get the most out of your experience with us? Take a look at some FAQs below. As always, if you have questions, please contact us at info@bracesbymeyer.com.

At an orthodontic exam, we work to make sure the teeth and jaws are developing correctly by monitoring growth. We also evaluate the alignment of teeth and help determine if there is enough space for the teeth to erupt properly. Some potential problems are easier to correct at an early age and can prevent issues from getting worse. This can also help permanent teeth come in straighter. This is why we recommend children have an orthodontic exam around the age of 7-8 years old.

  • The American Association of Orthodontics recommends an initial visit with the orthodontist at 7 years of age. At this age we will check tooth eruption and growth to make sure the teeth and jaws are in the right position. Some young patients can benefit from early treatment to ensure proper growth and to make straightening permanent teeth easier.
  • Orthodontic treatment is an investment in the health of your teeth and an investment in a wonderful smile. Some dental insurances have orthodontic benefits that can help cover the cost of treatment. Our office will be happy to reach out to your dental insurance to determine any orthodontic benefit you may have. Meyer Orthodontics also offers in-office financing so that we can help make your smile goals a reality in the way that works best for your family.The best way to discover the cost of treatment specific to your particular case is to set up a free exam.

  • Typically, the first 24 -48 hours after the teeth begin to move, the mouth can be sore. We recommend an over the counter pain medication like Tylenol or Ibuprofen to help with the slight pain for the first day. Softer foods the first day can also help. After the teeth begin to align, minimal discomfort should be expected.
  • If you have a bracket break, appliance come loose, a wire poking, or a lost Invisalign aligner, please reach out to our office. We will be more than happy to see you right away to get your appliance or brackets fixed and address any discomfort.
  • Maintaining great oral care is the best way to have successful orthodontic treatment. Continuing to brush and floss to keep the teeth and gums healthy allows for teeth to move faster. Brushing and flossing may take a bit longer with braces but we provide special tools to help make the process easier.
  • Maintaining good oral care during treatment helps the teeth move more efficiently. If you are asked to wear rubberbands during treatment, wearing them as asked will also assure you have an excellent outcome. Avoiding foods that can break brackets and appliances will also ensure you get an excellent result in an efficient timeline.

    Dr. Paul Meyer, Dr. Davids youngest son, joined the practice in July of 2019 and purchased Meyer Orthodontics in January of 2020. What a year to begin business ownership!

    I am amazed at how welcome I felt coming in to Meyer. I have really bad dental anxiety and Dr.Paul and Jessie J really helped explain the process and made me completely aware of everything in my treatment. The Dental Assistant Shana who put on my braces walked me through the process the whole time and made me feel super comfortable. I will recommend this office to anyone I know. Thank you

    I love the work they are doing on my teeth, I still have my braces, few more months to go and my teeth already look great. What I love the most is how the team make you feel; every time I go to my appointments I feel so welcome and at home... they make you feel part of the Meyer's family. Joan welcome you all smiles and sweet, the dental assistants and Dr. Meyer always make you feel at ease. Braces is a long process, some times your teeth hurt, the brackets and wires are not the most comfortable thing, but it is all well worth to achieve an awesome smile and the cherry on top... the great attention full of kindness from the Meyer's Team. Thank you, I really appreciate all you are doing for me. Veruschka Peraza

    I have had a very professional but friendly experience with Meyer Orthodontics. Dr Meyer is very good about explaining why and how he's doing what he's doing and his technicians and business office staff are equally wonderful to work with.
