What Sets Us Apart?
 

One Doctor, One Office -

  • Dr. Cooney personally and directly oversees every aspect of your treatment, insuring consistency and continuity of care. All orthodontic appliances are placed and adjusted by the doctor himself. You will see the same board certified orthodontic specialist at each and every appointment.

Emphasis on Effective and Efficient Treatment Timing -

  • We understand and appreciate that your time is valuable and important. Proper timing of orthodontic treatment is one of the most critical aspects of treatment for children and adolescents.
  • We strive to time the start of orthodontic treatment at the most ideal window of opportunity of growth and development for each individual patient. This helps to insure that each individual patient receives the best possible results in the most efficient and predictable manner.

Complimentary Initial Screening Examinations -

  • Critical to achieving our goal of effective treatment timing is early screening and ongoing monitoring of children and adolescents.
  • Since our office was founded in 1960 we have always offered initial screening examinations, including x-rays, at no charge - a policy which continues to this day.

Complimentary Tracking Program -

  • Patients who are not ready to begin treatment are followed on a regular and consistent basis in our active observation program. This allows us to identify the most ideal time to initiate treatment in the future while ongoing growth, development and teeth eruption are closely and professionally monitored.
  • As with our initial screening appointments, active observation and monitoring of your child's ongoing orthodontic needs is a complimentary service we have offered our patients and their general dentists for over 50 years.

Communication - High Tech with a Personal Touch -

  • From regular updates at every appointment to our customized appointment reminder system, we place a premium on effective and consistent communications with our patients, parents, general dentist colleagues and other dental specialists.

Going Green -

  • Extensive integration and use of digital x-rays, digital photography, electronic patient charts and medical records along with web-based education technology have dramatically reduced our impact on the environment by limiting paper consumption and eliminating the chemicals needed for developing conventional x-rays and photographs.
