Frequently Asked Questions About Our Lakewood Orthodontic Office

What makes Belmar Orthodontics different from other Lakewood orthodontic practices?

Belmar Orthodontics stands out with our combination of cutting-edge technology, personalized care approach, and comprehensive treatment philosophy. Our orthodontists consider not just the alignment of your teeth but also your jaw function, airway health, and long-term stability. We’re conveniently located in the Belmar shopping area, making appointments easy to fit into your regular schedule. Additionally, our team creates a family-like atmosphere where patients feel comfortable and valued throughout their treatment journey.

Do you accept insurance and Medicaid for orthodontic treatment?

Yes! Belmar Orthodontics proudly accepts all PPO dental insurance plans and Medicaid. Our treatment coordinators work closely with you to maximize your insurance benefits and make your orthodontic care as affordable as possible. We also offer flexible monthly payment plans for any out-of-pocket expenses, ensuring financial concerns don’t stand between you and your dream smile.

How long does orthodontic treatment typically take at Belmar Orthodontics?

Treatment duration varies based on individual needs, but most patients complete their orthodontic journey within 12-24 months. During your initial consultation, Dr. Hardy or Dr. Randall will evaluate your specific needs and provide a customized timeline. Our use of advanced technology and digital workflows often allows us to achieve results more efficiently than traditional methods. We’ll discuss your estimated treatment time and what factors might influence this timeline during your consultation.

At what age should my child first visit Belmar Orthodontics?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. At this age, we can identify potential issues while the jaw is still developing, allowing for more effective early intervention if needed. However, not all children require early treatment, and sometimes monitoring is the appropriate approach. Our free initial consultations make it easy to get professional guidance on your child’s unique orthodontic needs.

What should I expect during my first visit to Belmar Orthodontics?

Your first visit to our Lakewood office includes a warm welcome from our team, completion of necessary paperwork (which can be started online beforehand to save time), and a comprehensive examination. We’ll take digital images and X-rays as needed, and either Dr. Hardy or Dr. Randall will conduct a thorough evaluation of your oral health. Following this assessment, we’ll discuss treatment options, approximate timelines, and financial considerations. The entire appointment typically takes about an hour, and you’ll leave with a clear understanding of your next steps toward a healthier, more beautiful smile.
