Your Childs First
Orthodontic Check-Up:
No Later Than Age 7
According to the American Association  of Orthodontics, children should be evaluated by an orthodontist no later than age of seven.  This is an ideal time for an evaluation because the growth of the jaws, crowding of erupting permanent teeth, excessive flaring of the front teeth, damaging habit patterns (such as thumb sucking and tongue  thrust, and teeth grinding) can be addressed and if indicated, treated by the orthodontist.

Adult Orthodontics:
 It's Never Too Late
To Be Your Best
Orthodontic treatment is about a change for the better, no matter what your age.  It can give you the confidence and pride that comes with straight teeth and a great smile.  But your orthodontist has another equally important goal-to improve the health of your teeth and gums.

Our Practice

Philosophy
Our philosophy is to provide quality orthodontic treatment to every adult, teenager and child in a fun, friendly atmosphere, where patients are treated like family.

Factors of Convenience
Pearland  Orthodontics offers several factors of convenience for our patients and parents.

1. Flexible Payment Plans
Flexible payment plans are available to accommodate each patients financial needs.  Our initial exam is complimentary.  If treatment is indicated, orthodontic records will be taken (at a quoted fee) to allow Dr. Kudchadker to develop a treatment plan.  The records consist of a panoramic x-ray, cephalometric x-ray, photos and study models.  A final consultation is then conducted to fully inform our patients and/or parents of the treatment plan.  A minimum down payment is due at the beginning of treatment.  The remainder of the fee will be divided into monthly installments.

We accept most major indemnity and PPO insurance plans as a courtesy to our patients.  We will file the insurance claim; however, the entire orthodontic fee still remains the patient's responsibility.

2. Appointments
We offer early morning, late evening and Saturday appointments.

3. Location
The office is situated on a lake front property that offers patients a beautiful view and a paved scenic footpath.  It is located in close proximity to schools, daycare facilities, grocery stores and restaurants.

Staff
Our Office Coordinator, Ingrid Chavez is highly experienced in office management and patient relations.  She is bilingual (Spanish), highly personable and strives to provide quality service to all our patients and parents.
