Our greatest goal is to give you the healthy, straight, beautiful smile that you've always wanted. We understand that choosing to receive orthodontic care is a big decision, and we respect your reasons for wanting to improve the way you look and feel. Our practice will work with you every step of the way to make sure that your orthodontic care is as comfortable, convenient, and rewarding as possible. We'll use the latest technology, offering a variety of safe and gentle treatment options, giving you the customized, individual care that you deserve.

Every smile starts with a complimentary consultation!

Your complimentary consultation will give you the opportunity to meet our team, as well as, learn more about orthodontics, receive a complete initial exam, and find out which treatment options will best meet your needs. During your complimentary consultation, Dr. Matthew Nissenbaum, DDS, will:

• Review your dental and medical history forms.
• Provide a complete oral exam, with X-rays, to determine if treatment is necessary.
• Help you create a customized treatment plan.
• Discuss all financial information, insurance options, and payment plans.

During you complimentary consultation, we will explain everything that you will need to know about your orthodontic treatment, so that you can choose what's best for you – no strings attached. If you'd like to schedule a complimentary consultation with Dr. Matthew Nissenbaum, DDS, please call (631) 225-8000.

What happens after the initial consultation?

If you do choose to receive orthodontic treatment, you will need to schedule your next appointment. Your next appointment is when orthodontic records are taken.  Photos, X-rays, and impressions of your teeth are taken at this appointment to help finalize your custom treatment plan before braces are placed.  Dr. Matthew Nissenbaum, DDS, will place your new orthodontic appliances at your next visit. Typically, this appointment is no longer than one hour, and then you're on your way toward your new smile!

Scheduling Appointments

Visiting the orthodontist every 4–8 weeks is an important part of your orthodontic treatment. Regular checkups last between 10-30 minutes. Our practice will work with you to make sure that your appointments are scheduled around your busy schedule; so, you will spend less time in the dental chair, and more time enjoying the things you love to do.

We understand that "life happens," so if you're running late or need to reschedule, please let us know, and we will do everything we can to accommodate you. When you're ready to schedule your first appointment, call our practice (631) 225-8000; we're looking forward to working with you.

Visiting the dentist during orthodontic treatment

It is very important that you continue to visit your family dentist once every six months, even during your orthodontic treatment, for teeth cleanings and routine dental checkups. If extra dental care is needed, we will be happy to coordinate with your family dentist to make sure that you are receiving the best care possible.
