Experience Life in Our Office
Crafting beautiful smiles every day.
Our greatest goal is to give you the healthy, straight and beautiful smile you’ve always wanted. We understand that choosing to receive orthodontic care is a big decision, and we respect your reasons for wanting to improve the way you look and feel.
Our practice will work with you every step of the way to make sure your orthodontic care is as rewarding as possible. We utilize the latest technology, and offer a variety of safe and gentle treatment options to give you the customized, individual care you deserve to live your life smiling.
Every smile starts with an initial consultation!
During your initial consultation you will have the opportunity to meet our team, learn more about orthodontics and receive a complete initial exam. This will enable a customized treatment plan to be developed just for you. During your initial consultation we will:
- Review your dental and medical history forms
- Perform a complete oral exam
- Discuss your concerns and the doctor’s observations
- Take diagnostic X-rays to give the doctor a study tool to customize your treatment plan
A follow-up appointment is scheduled to discuss your treatment plan, answer any questions you may have and provide you with all the information you need to determine if orthodontic treatment is right for you. We want you to live life smiling!
What happens next?
You’re one step closer to achieving the smile you’ve always wanted! After your consultation and case presentation appointments, we will schedule the appropriate appointments to begin your treatment.
Scheduling Appointments
Visiting our office every eight to ten weeks is an essential part of your orthodontic treatment. Our practice will work with you to make sure your appointments are as convenient as possible. When scheduling appointments, please let us know which days and times work best for you.
To get a head start on your initial appointment, please download and fill out our Medical History form and bring it with you to your first appointment.
We understand that “life happens!” If you’re running late or need to reschedule, please let us know and we will do everything we can to accommodate you. When you are ready to schedule your first appointment, contact our practice and one of our friendly scheduling coordinators will assist you. We’re looking forward to working with you.
Visiting the dentist during orthodontic treatment
It is vital that you continue to visit your family dentist once every six months for teeth cleanings and routine dental checkups, even during your orthodontic treatment. If extra dental care is needed, we will be happy to coordinate with your family dentist to make sure you receive the best possible care.
“My daughter, Dana, got her braces on about 18 months ago. When we first went to visit Hendrix Orthodontics (because they had come so highly recommended!), we sat down with the staff to discuss payment options. Having recently lost my job, I knew it would be a challenge to make the monthly payments, so I explained my situation to the staff, and they were “Wonderful” about it and really accommodated my specific ability to pay. Each visit, the office staff was friendly, courteous, and exceptionally accommodating in everything. Several times I had to change appointment times and/or dates because of Dana’s school activities, and they never gave me a hard time about it. They go out of their way to accommodate personal schedules for families. Today…Dana got her braces off and she looks absolutely BEAUTIFUL!! Dr. Hendrix did such an outstanding job with her teeth, treating her like she was the only patient each time she came in. He really does treat his patients like they’re important, not just another number! I would (and already have!) recommend Hendrix Orthodontics to everyone and anyone who asks me about it! How often is it that you actually enjoy visiting a doctor’s office??!! This is one office that makes every visit pleasant and enjoyable because of the outstanding staff ‘and’ Dr. Hendrix! Thank you all for a wonderful experience!”
“If you are looking for an orthodontist in the Exton area, Dr. Leiss is the one for you! I cannot say enough about this office. The office is very clean and has sea life pictures on the wall, which has a very calming affect. In addition, because Dr. Leiss has a mild nature, he always makes my daughter feel very comfortable. From the beginning he not only explains his plan to provide the best outcome but also listens to his patients as well. He has the BEST staff! They are extremely welcoming, very professional and accomodating! What more could you ask for?” Thank you, Leiss Orthodontics!”
“We want to thank you for the amazing job you have done on both of our boys’ teeth. Nickolas & Alexander were seen by you guys years apart from each other, with Alex being your recent graduate. Based on technology changes and differences with their needs, the process was quite different for the two of them, but the end result was the same. They both have amazing teeth and you guys were kind along the way and never made us wait long for a single appointment. As we told you guys on our last day, we don’t have any more kids of our own to bring to you, but we will always refer anyone that does need an orthodontics practice to you guys, with high praise. Thank you!!!!”
“Cannot say enough words about how wonderful Dr. Leiss and his office staff have been since Megan got her braces first on. We sing their praises to everyone who ask for referrals. When Megan had difficulty with the Mara appliance, they opned after hours to talk to her (and me). They did that on their own time. Who does that? Today was her freedom day, and her smile is absolutely beautiful thanks to them!”
“Thank you for straightening my teeth. It has been so neat to watch them fall into place and that that the braces are coming off, it’s so amazing to have a smile that is straight. You have all been so welcoming and ready to help during the past two years, Thank you so much.”
