Ideally, before starting any orthodontic treatment you want to make sure that you have a clean bill of health so, it's really important that you get regular dental check-ups from your local dentist and make sure that you're disease free.

It's also important that you get as much out of your oral hygiene instructions as possible so, make sure your dentist has given you advice about your tooth brushing and your flossing so that your teeth are as clean as possible before we start orthodontic treatment.

The final thing I'd like from you is as much detail as possible about what you want us to do to get your teeth looking better.
