01In brief
What happens at an orthodontic evaluation?
No referral needed · from age 7
An orthodontic evaluation usually takes less than an hour. The dentist examines your teeth, bite and jaws, takes the X-rays needed and, depending on the case, photos and impressions. The dentist then explains what they see, the possible options and their costs, in writing, before any treatment. At Go Dentiste, no referral is needed for an evaluation, in Valleyfield and in Vaudreuil-Dorion: 514-533-3368.

02What to know
The steps of the evaluation
No step commits you to starting treatment: the evaluation is there to understand the situation and help you decide.
- Your questions firstWhat bothers you (appearance, bite, discomfort, spacing), your expectations and your constraints: school, sports, schedule, budget.
- The examPosition of the teeth, contact between upper and lower teeth, available space, health of the teeth and gums, and the jaw joint.
- X-rays and impressionsA panoramic X-ray and, depending on the case, other images, photos and impressions to plan precisely.
- The plan and the costsThe possible options, estimated length, number of visits and cost of each, given to you in writing. You decide at your own pace.
What to bring
- Your dental insurance card, if you have one
- A list of your medications
- Recent X-rays or records from past treatment, if you have them
- For a child: their health insurance card
- Your questions, written down ahead of time
Good to know: If the exam shows a cavity or a gum problem, it is treated first: teeth are not moved in a mouth that isn’t healthy.
