Starting Your Smile
At Murray & Olson Orthodontics in Visalia, we believe that your first orthodontic visit is the most important one. Our greatest goal is to give you the healthy, straight, beautiful smile that you've always wanted.
Easy & Painless
At Murray & Olson Orthodontics, 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 team will work with you every step of the way to make sure that your orthodontic care is as rewarding as possible. Our practice utilizes the latest technology, offering a variety of safe and gentle treatment options to give you the customized, individual care you deserve.
During your first free consultation, we will:
- Review your dental and medical history forms
- Provide a complete oral exam, with X-rays, to determine whether treatment is necessary
- Help you create a customized treatment plan
- Discuss all financial information, insurance options, and payment plans

Your Custom Treatment Plan
After reviewing your records, Dr. Murray or Dr. Olson will join you in a private consultation room to discuss your individualized and unique treatment plan.
Your doctor will point out specific areas of concern and show you what kind of corrections you can expect by showing photos and videos of similar cases.
We will take as much time as you need to answer your questions and decide what kind of treatment is best for you. Dr. Murray or Dr. Olson will then walk you through the process.
They’ll explain everything—from scheduling and expected discomfort levels to finances and payment options.
Taking the Next Step
The orthodontic treatment process involves a series of orthodontic visits to Murray & Olson Orthodontics. If you have any more questions about your first orthodontic visit, please call us at 559-732-4146.
