Virtual New Patient Consults

Learn if you’re a candidate for orthodontic treatment from your phone. We’ll review your smile and let you know if treatment is right for you.

How It Works

Step 1 

Take 5 photos of your teeth from different angles.  This video will show you how to do it: https://vimeo.com/342453720

 

Step 2

Take 3 face photos: relaxed, smiling, and profile (side).

 

Step 3

Email your pictures to us at tc@niajonesortho.com. Please also include a good phone number we can reach you at once Dr. Jones has reviewed your photos.

 

Step 4

You’re finished! Dr. Jones will assess your photos and will get back to you soon with your treatment plan options.

 

VERY IMPORTANT: When we send you an email, or you send us an email, the information sent is not encrypted. That means a third party may be able to access the information and read it since it is transmitted over the Internet. And, you receive an email, someone may be able to access your email account and read it.

  • HIPAA stands for the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
  • HIPAA was passed by the U.S. government in 1996 in order to establish privacy and security protections for health information
  • Information stored on our computers is encrypted.
  • Most popular email services (ex. Hotmail®, Gmail®, Yahoo®) do not utilize encrypted email.
  • Email is a very popular and convenient way to communicate for a lot of people, so in their latest modification to the HIPAA act, the federal government provided guidance on email and HIPAA.
  • The guidelines state that if a patient has been made aware of the risks of unencrypted email, and that same patient provides consent to receive health information via email, then a health entity may send that patient personal medical information via unencrypted email.
