Get A 2nd Opinion from a Trusted, Experienced Orthodontist

March 7, 2022

So you visited an orthodontist, but you aren’t sure if you’re comfortable starting treatment with him or her yet. 

Is it possible to “try out” an orthodontist before choosing one? Can you still visit another orthodontist if you’ve already received an exam from an orthodontist?

Yes, you can – and we encourage you to do so! We offer complimentary consultations for this exact reason. You can receive a thorough orthodontic exam and a one-on-one consultation with one of our experienced orthodontists, Dr. Caudill or Dr. McNeight, so you can get a feel for our patient experience before you make your decision.

Why would I need a second opinion in orthodontics?

Getting a second opinion in your orthodontic treatment can help assure you that you’re making the best decision for you or your child! If you visit a practice and aren’t quite sure if the environment is the right fit for you, don’t hesitate to try out another practice. Especially if the first orthodontist you see says you’re not a candidate for Invisalign! 

Our orthodontists see many patients seeking a second opinion with their heart set on this virtually-invisible treatment. As Diamond Plus Invisalign providers, we’re able to give them the best possible smile results with Invisalign! 

You want to feel 100% confident and comfortable in your decision to sign a contract with your orthodontist and begin a life-changing journey. You’ll be spending time with your orthodontist and team regularly, so it’s important that they’re friendly, professional, personable, and knowledgeable. 

Take note of how you feel in the office too! Is it a comfortable place to be? Is it clean and modern? Do they offer the type of treatment you’re looking for? You and your smile deserve the absolute best care possible, so don’t be afraid to set your standard!

At Caudill & McNeight Orthodontics, we provide complimentary first visits, with no cost, no risk and no obligation, because we’re confident that you’ll have an exceptional experience.

If you visited another orthodontist, and you’re interested in getting a second opinion and trying out another practice before making your decision, we encourage you to request your complimentary consultation with us. 

The Doctor You Choose Matters

Your orthodontist is the one who creates your smile, not your treatment alone. The orthodontist behind your treatment plan matters.

When choosing your orthodontist, it’s important that you assess his or her qualifications. If the orthodontist is a member of the AAO (American Association of Orthodontists), this is a great indication that he or she has the experience, education and training you deserve. 

Try using the AAO orthodontist locator to find an AAO certified orthodontist near you!

Consider the orthodontist’s experience, certifications, and any previous training they’ve had too. How long has the orthodontist been practicing? Have they earned an orthodontic certification? Which professional memberships or affiliations are they a part of? 

  • Dr. Caudill is an active member of numerous associations, including the AAO, Southern Association of Orthodontists, Brevard County Dental Society, Florida Dental Association, American Dental Association, and more! 
  • Dr. McNeight is also a member of numerous associations, and was selected as an Emerging Leader of the American Association of Orthodontics and a finalist for the Journal of Clinical Orthodontics Student of the Year Award! 

Both Dr. Caudill and Dr. McNeight are committed to staying active in the orthodontic community and up-to-date on their treatments and techniques to provide the best possible care for you. 

When you choose us, you can rest assured that you’re in the best hands. We guarantee beautiful results. Take a look at some of our before and after photos for a preview of the results you can expect from us! 

You can hear from our patients too! See what they have to say about our doctors and the patient experience at Caudill & McNeight Orthodontics.  

During your initial consultation, you’ll be able to get a braces quote or Invisalign quote. We’ll discuss your treatment costs, examine your condition and discuss our findings, present our treatment options to you, and begin your journey if you choose!

Need to hear more?

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us with any questions! We love to hear from you. We’re here to guide you through your treatment process, from your very first visit to your last appointment. 

If you’re looking for a second opinion or searching for a top orthodontist in Melbourne, Merritt Island or Viera, Florida, come meet us and experience the vibes! Request a complimentary exam for you or your child today.
