Decision points
Useful next steps
Visit frequency
Ask how often the proposed treatment normally requires monitoring and what factors could create extra appointments.
Remote troubleshooting
Before treatment starts, understand how the office wants patients to handle loose wires, broken appliances or aligners that stop fitting.
Long-term retention
Retention continues after active treatment, so future retainer checks or replacements should be considered part of the overall care plan.
