What to Expect at Our Laredo Office
CHIP ortho benefit check before the quote
Front desk pulls your CHIP orthodontic scope on the same visit and hands you a written monthly number that reflects covered vs non-covered work — no callback with a revised estimate later.
Zapata-to-Del Mar adjustment transfer
Dr. Alvarado's treatment plan is shared across our Laredo Zapata and Laredo Del Mar offices, so you can schedule adjustments at whichever location fits a given week without re-opening the chart.
Bilingual teen-and-parent split consult
The clinical and cost conversation runs with the parent in Spanish while the teen picks bracket type and aligner color ties in English, so both decision-makers leave with the answer they came for.

Why Clear Aligners Is Worth It — Laredo
Straight teeth aren't just cosmetic — they're healthier teeth.
Unresolved crowding and crossbite in the teen years lock in harder once growth plates close, turning a bracket-phase correction into a surgical conversation later.
A loose or poking wire between adjustments can ulcerate cheek tissue within days if it isn't trimmed or tucked, so the longer a broken appliance waits, the more soft-tissue repair rides along with the ortho visit.
Delaying the CHIP ortho start past eligibility windows can forfeit covered months the family can't get back — the benefit is time-bound, not balance-bound.

What's Included in Your Clear Aligners — Laredo
Here's what to expect when you visit Rodeo Dental in Laredo, TX for clear aligners:
Panoramic plus cephalometric imaging
Full-arch panoramic radiograph and lateral cephalometric film at the consult to map eruption, root angulation, and skeletal relationship before any bracket or aligner plan is drawn up.
Digital intraoral scan for aligner workup
Chairside intraoral scan captures the full upper and lower arches without impression trays, producing the digital model used for clear aligner staging or indirect bonding setups.
Direct bonding with light-cured adhesive
Brackets are positioned on etched enamel and set with light-cured adhesive, then the initial archwire is seated and secured with elastomeric ligatures sized to the bracket slot.
NiTi archwire progression at 6–8 week visits
Adjustment visits step through nickel-titanium archwires of increasing stiffness roughly every six to eight weeks, with elastomeric or steel ligature changes at each appointment.
Fixed lingual retainer bond-up at debond
At debond, a stainless lingual wire is bonded behind the lower anteriors with flowable composite and a clear Essix-style upper retainer is delivered from the same-visit scan.
