What to Look for When Choosing an Orthodontist

Home » Orthodontics » What to Look for When Choosing an Orthodontist

As with any healthcare provider, choosing an orthodontist is an important decision affecting your day-to-day health and overall well-being. Not all orthodontic practices are alike, and you should feel comfortable asking questions until you have the answers right for you. At Farina Orthodontics, you will always receive the highest caliber of care in a friendly, welcoming environment, the latest technology making treatment more efficient and comfortable, and a few other outstanding qualities we think you may like.

Quality Care

When choosing an orthodontist, there are a few things to keep in mind. Of course, you want doctors who are qualified and well-educated. All of our doctors are board-certified and are members of professional organizations that allow them to connect with other orthodontists across the country to discuss new techniques and treatment options.

In addition to a qualified doctor, you should be involved in choosing a treatment option that works well for you or your child. Whatever your orthodontic needs may be, you can be sure that Farina Orthodontic Specialists has the experience and expertise to delicately handle your unique situation.

We use cutting-edge technology to make our diagnoses and treatment quick and effective. The new iCat and iTero scanners have allowed us to make 2D and 3D digital images of the patient’s maxillofacial areas in as little as 10 minutes. We have 3D printers onsite, as well as an in-house lab to design and fabricate plastic aligners used during Invisalign treatment. This kind of technology can cut down on your treatment time while still giving you amazing results that will make you smile.

Financial Services

Another deciding factor when choosing an orthodontic practice is the cost of the treatment plan. At Farina Orthodontic Specialists, we offer complimentary consultations virtually as well as in person, and you’ll receive the doctor’s recommendation and all the information you’ll need to make your decision without any out-of-pocket cost.

We accept most insurance plans and will help coordinate your benefits with your provider. We use OrthoFi, an in-house financing solution, to process insurance benefits and to set up a payment plan for the balance so that orthodontic treatment is affordable for your family. Payments can be made over months or even years so treatment puts less stress on you and your bank account.

Friendly and Welcoming Team

At Farina Orthodontic Specialists we want to make the experience more enjoyable with our welcoming team.  We are committed to providing exceptional care, as well as a remarkable experience along the way.  Existing patients know that each time they return to Farina Orthodontic Specialists, they will receive a warm welcome. For new patients, we understand that choosing an orthodontist is a big decision. We respect and encourage your reasons for wanting to improve the way you look and feel. We will work with you to make sure that your orthodontic care is as comfortable and convenient as possible. We never overlook the fact that you are the reason we’re here.

Morgan N.
I have had 3 children go in and out of braces at Farina. Great experience! The staff is warm and friendly. They are always flexible and accommodating for “accidents.” Appointments are usually always on time and they work very efficiently. Several options to make it affordable for your situation especially when you have 3 in braces all at once. The results have been amazing on each child! I highly recommend this Orthodontic office!!
Response from the owner:Morgan thank you for your trust in treating your beautiful children!!! Dr F :)
Maria R.
