Free Orthodontic Consultation in NW Portland
Your first visit at Bridge City Orthodontics is free, unhurried, and pressure-free. You'll meet Dr. Vo, get a comfortable 3D scan, and leave with a clear plan and honest pricing.
A free consultation is the easiest way to find out where your smile stands and what your options actually are — no obligation, no sales pitch. At our NW Portland office, Dr. Vo sits down with you (or your child), takes a close look at your teeth and bite, and talks through whether treatment makes sense now, later, or not at all. If your situation is straightforward, we'll tell you that too.
Bridge City Orthodontics is built around honest, expert guidance rather than getting you into a chair. We use a comfortable 3D digital scan instead of goopy impressions, walk you through what we see on screen, and explain your options — braces, Invisalign, or simply monitoring — in plain language. You'll get real pricing and financing details before you leave, so you can make a confident decision on your own timeline.

Common questions
Is the consultation really free?
Yes. Your first consultation at Bridge City Orthodontics is completely free, including the 3D scan and Dr. Vo's exam. There's no cost and no obligation to begin treatment.
What happens during the visit?
You'll meet Dr. Vo, get a comfortable 3D digital scan, and have your teeth, bite, and jaw evaluated. Dr. Vo will review what he sees with you on screen, answer your questions, and discuss your options and next steps. Most consultations take under an hour.
Will I feel pressured to start treatment?
No. Our goal is honest guidance, not a hard sell. If treatment isn't needed yet — or isn't needed at all — we'll tell you. You'll leave with a clear plan and pricing and can decide on your own timeline.
Is the consultation suitable for children?
Absolutely. We see kids, teens, and adults. For younger children, this is a great chance to find out whether early treatment is worth considering or whether it's better to simply monitor growth and check back later. The American Association of Orthodontists suggests a first orthodontic visit around age 7.
Will I find out how much treatment costs?
Yes. You'll leave with transparent, upfront pricing for your recommended treatment, along with financing options and a clear explanation of how your insurance may apply — so there are no surprises later. No referral is needed to book, either.
What should I bring to my free consultation?
Just yourself (or your child) and any dental insurance details you have. If a previous provider took X-rays recently those can help, but they're not required — we'll take whatever records we need. You'll leave with a clear plan and honest pricing, and no obligation to start.
