                Your first visit is an opportunity for you to get to know the doctor, staff and  treatment  facilities. 
                At this visit, you  will  have  to  fill  a  form. At your first visit, Dr.Shrirang   Joshi will determine if Orthodontic treatment is right for you or your child. If treatment   is  indicated, digital X-rays will be   advised   for  a  quick and more  accurate diagnosis. Diagnostic records may be taken in   steps  at the same visit or scheduled as a separate appointment. Also, he will discuss your treatment options   and   costs  in   brief  just to give  you an overall idea.

                Diagnostic records typically include X-rays, plaster study models of the teeth and photos of the patient's face and teeth. The study models and X-rays allows the doctor to take measurements and perform various analysis. This information is used to develop a custom treatment plan for each patient. These records are also helpful in tracking the progress of treatment as the teeth move. |

                The process of appliance fixation usually takes two appointments of 30-45 minutes
                each. Depending on your case, you'll then see us at regular intervals of approximately
                6 to 8 weeks apart for an adjustment, which takes 10 to 15 minutes. Patients are
                seen by appointment only. We make every effort to be on time for our patients, and
                expect you to extend the same courtesy to us. If you cannot keep an appointment,
                please notify us immediately. Cancel only if it is an emergency. It is difficult
                to reschedule your appointment, since most appointments are made 6 to 8 weeks in
                advance. In case we have to change an appointment, you will get a call from us and
                in this case, you will get an immediate available appointment. So please give at
                least two phone numbers. Also, inform us in case your phone number changes.
