What to Expect at Your First Visit
Your first visit to Lakewood Orthodontics is a free, no-pressure consultation designed to make you feel at home. You’ll receive a complete exam, meet with Dr. Ravi Rajanna, and get clear, expert guidance—no guesswork, no obligations.
01
Come On In
You’ll be greeted by name, offered a drink, and shown to our comfortable waiting area—though chances are, you won’t be waiting long. We run on time because your time matters, and we want you to feel welcome from the very beginning.
02
Tour the Office
We’ll take you through the space so you can see where the magic happens. From clean treatment bays to fun team energy, our office was designed to help you feel relaxed and confident about your care.
03
Smile, You’re On Scanner
We use digital imaging to get a full picture of your teeth and bite—no goopy impressions required. This helps Dr. Ravi design a plan that fits your exact needs, right from the start.
04
Easy, No-Pressure Exam
Dr. Ravi will examine your smile, review your images, and talk through what he sees. If treatment makes sense, he’ll explain what it could look like. If not, he’ll let you know that too—with zero pressure either way.
05
Personalized Treatment Plan
We’ll walk you through the best treatment options for your smile—whether that’s clear aligners, braces, or something in between. You’ll have time to ask questions, talk goals, and make a plan that feels right for you.
06
Get All of the Details
We’ll go over cost, timelines, and all your payment options—including flexible financing if you need it. Our team makes sure everything is clear and stress-free so you can move forward with confidence.
07
Ready When You Are
Once you’re ready, we’ll help you schedule your next step—or get started that same day if you’re ready for braces. Whether you're excited to begin or need time to think, the choice is always yours.
