Townships Served by Dexter Orthodontics

2

Our Dexter office serves families from the townships that surround it, and each one has its own drive and its own school districts. This page covers fourteen townships in Washtenaw and Livingston counties, grouped by county, so you can see how far we are from home and which districts your children may attend.

At Dexter Orthodontics, you'll meet Dr. Mary Beth Moenssen and Dr. Brandon Shoukri at 7200 Dan Hoey Road, Suite B, in Dexter. The drives below are measured from the center of each township, so yours may be shorter or longer.

Treatment Options for Township Families

Timing is the same wherever you live. The American Association of Orthodontists suggests a first orthodontic check-up by age 7, and from there some children are ready for Phase 1 Treatment, others need only periodic check-ups, and teens and adults can compare Braces and Invisalign.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Your first visit is a complimentary consultation at our Dexter office, with no obligation to begin treatment. We'll review your child's teeth and bite, explain whether treatment is recommended, and share a cost estimate if it is. Because some townships are a longer drive, we'll also talk through how often appointments tend to be. The American Association of Orthodontists describes the usual appointment in its first appointment guide.

Our team often scans with 3D Scanning in place of impression trays, and Finance & Insurance is easy to review before you decide. When you're ready, Schedule a Consultation. You can also read How Much Does Orthodontic Treatment Cost in Dexter? or Does Insurance Cover Orthodontic Treatment? first.
