Making the trip with the information you need
Before traveling from Westchester, confirm the appointment type, expected visit length, and any forms or records the office needs. This is especially useful if you are taking time away from school or work. Let the team know about your child's comfort needs and ask any parking or building-entry questions before leaving home.
For families considering braces or Invisalign, planning extends beyond the first consultation. Ask how follow-up appointments would be scheduled, what you would need to do between visits, and whom to contact with questions. Our orthodontist will discuss recommendations after evaluating the patient. Pediatric dental visits can also address preventive care and any concerns you have noticed since the last examination.

Questions from Westchester families
Do Westchester patients travel to your Santa Monica office?
Yes. Our address is 1304 15th Street, Suite 206, Santa Monica, CA 90404. Westchester is a service area; it is not a separate office location.
Can I discuss the visit schedule before deciding about orthodontic treatment?
Yes. An orthodontic consultation is the time to ask about the proposed treatment, anticipated follow-up visits, and practical scheduling considerations. Recommendations and appointment intervals depend on the individual treatment plan.
What should we bring to a first appointment?
Ask which new-patient forms are needed, and have your child’s medical and dental history, medication information, and insurance details available. Contact us about sharing recent dental records or X-rays before the visit. Our first-visit page explains what to expect.
How do we check insurance and appointment availability?
Call 310-362-6529 or use the appointment request page. Share your plan details and the type of care you are seeking. Confirm coverage, possible out-of-pocket costs, and the appointment time with the team; submitting a request does not by itself confirm a booking.
