Shopping? Why select Ziman Orthodontics?
-If our before/after pictures and testimonials don't convince you, consider our approach to our patients.

1) We don't encourage gimmicks. Other offices sometimes refuse to provide written treatment estimates unless records (models, x-rays) are first taken... and then they will charge you for them should you go elsewhere. We are very comfortable with comparison shoppers and after your complimentary examination, we will provide a written estimate for our services, a precise explanation of what is/is not included and a "Value Fee Guarantee". If you should receive a lesser written estimate from another orthodontist for identical treatment, we will beat that fee by 5%. Why select a provider who won't give you a written estimate before you start treatment?

2) We embrace technology that makes sense to us based on science... not a salespersons advice. Twenty five years of experience has taught us to be skeptical of the "latest", "newest", or "most popular" orthodontic innovations unless or until they are shown to be better than what we now have over some reasonable length of time. For example, while many newer, technologies purport to achieve faster results, what will these cases look like as compared to ours ',10,15,or 20 years down the road particularly if bonded retainers are not used ( check out our long term results) to stabilize the results? Will it matter ten years from now that your case was treated 4 months faster if the result is unstable? We continue to utilize the latest advancements in wires, adhesives, headgear alternatives, and temporary anchorage devices (TAD's) as they become available when our experience, common sense, and the science indicate real value for our patients.

3) While we provide an estimate of treatment duration and the associated fee before you start, it is entirely possible that your case might take longer to complete due to factors beyond our control such as missed adjustments, broken appliances or unusual jaw growth. Guess what? Your fee is locked in no matter how long it takes to complete your case. And, we won't remove the braces until Dr. Ziman is satisfied with the result which is likely to be sometime after you are satisfied. In other word, the braces won't come off at a predetermined point in time unless the case is done to your satisfaction.

You simply can't find a better value than Ziman Orthodontics!
