New Patients

Your First Visit

Welcome to Foundations Orthodontics!

Starting with your first visit, our mission is to provide you with exceptional care in a friendly and comfortable environment. See below for what to expect during your first few visits to our office.

What to Expect at your first appointment

Initial exam

At your initial exam, you will meet Dr. Moran or Dr. White and our patient care team. This appointment allows time for our doctors to do an initial examination and to learn more about your goals for treatment.

Once the doctor has completed her initial examination, she will determine if you’re a good candidate for treatment. If so, we will need diagnostic records to complete a comprehensive treatment plan.

We have time built into the initial exam for diagnostic records and the total time with diagnostic records is typically 1 hour.

Diagnostic Records

The process of collecting orthodontic records is an essential step in providing you with the highest level of care and achieving the best possible treatment outcome. Necessary records vary from patient to patient and may include: 3D x-rays, physical or digital molds of the teeth, and photographs. Different doctors take different x-rays for their unique diagnostic purposes, but we will contact your dental professionals and make use of any existing, current x-rays whenever possible. We will also share the records we take with your dental professionals, maximizing your value.

Pre-Treatment Consultation

After your initial exam, you will be scheduled for an in-person or virtual pre-treatment consultation.

We separate the exam and consultation into two parts because our doctors believe it is essential to take the time to study your information and complete a comprehensive and individualized plan to ensure your teeth and joints are in their healthiest position.

During this meeting, Dr. Moran or Dr. White and our Treatment Coordinator will review all our findings, recommendations, and cost estimates.

Our goal is for you to leave this consultation with a clear understanding of your treatment plan. We believe education is key to making an informed and confident decision moving forward.

You will leave your consultation with a full copy of the doctor’s findings, recommendations, x-rays, and your estimates.

If you would like to start treatment the same day as your consult just let us know and we can plan accordingly.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a fantastic experience with Dr. Moran and her team. Our own child’s dentist said orthodontics could wait, but a friend recommended Dr. Moran, so I decided to go for an evaluation — and I'm so glad I did. She caught an issue early and got ahead of it, and treatment finished with a short stint in braces. Dr. Moran and her staff were knowledgeable, attentive, and easy to work with the whole way through. Highly recommend her and her practice!

Everyone is amazing and im happy to say my pain is leaps and bounds better. They were able to help when no one else could.

Dr Moran also treats TMJ. I went to see her for TMJ years ago. When I started having issues again I called Dr. Moran.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend!  My treatment was not straight forward - due to bone loss, I required bone grafting, three implants, and ultimately had to wear my braces for an extended period of time.  Throughout this complex treatment, Dr. Moran’s collaboration with my periodontist and dentist to achieve the final outcome was exceptional.
Equally important was the support Dr. Moran provided to me throughout the process. She was always patient and reassuring whenever I had questions or concerns.  I truly felt cared for every step of the way.
I’m so pleased with my experience that I’ve recommended Dr. Moran to my daughter for my grandchildren’s orthodontic needs!
