NEW PATIENTS
Thank you for your interest in joining our family at Hillside View Orthodontics! Prior to your initial visit, our Treatment Coordinator will email you the confidential new patient forms. In order for us to better assist you, please complete and submit the forms ahead of time. If you prefer to print out the forms, please access them below and bring them with you to your appointment. We look forward to welcoming you to our office!
YOUR FIRST VISIT
Your first visit to meet with us can be an exciting time. Just thinking about a new smile can boost your self-esteem! During your first visit, you will have the opportunity to become familiar with our office while learning more about the many treatment options and services we provide for our patients. Dr. Ikeda will perform a thorough examination to determine whether treatment is necessary, which treatment best fits your needs, and when treatment should start. We treat our patients as our own family, and you will have comfort in knowing that we will never recommend treatments that are not necessary.
Every member of the Hillside View Orthodontics team is committed to making your experience with us positive and fulfilling. We believe that your comfort is vital to the success of your treatment. Once you schedule your new patient examination, you’ll receive an introductory letter from our Treatment Coordinator, along with a confirmation of your appointment. Please complete the new patient forms prior to the appointment so we may better assist you.
During your first visit at Hillside View Orthodontics:
- You will meet our friendly Treatment Coordinator, who will take time to get to know you.
- We will take digital photographs of your face and your teeth so Dr. Ikeda can easily show and explain the findings to you later.
- Dr. Ikeda will perform a thorough clinical examination to evaluate various aspects of your mouth, facial balance/growth, jaw joint health, and breathing problems.
- There will be ample time to ask questions and address any orthodontic concerns you may have.
- Together, we will review the preliminary findings from the clinical examination using the photographs as visual aid.
- You will find out if you are a good candidate for orthodontic treatment and whether it’s the right time to start.
- If you are ready for treatment, we will give you an idea of what the treatment may involve, roughly how long it may take, as well as an approximate cost for the treatment.
- The final treatment plan will be solidified after obtaining additional diagnostic records (such as digital radiographs and 3D models) so that Dr. Ikeda and her team can carefully craft an individualized treatment plan that will meet your unique orthodontic needs.

“Our family loves this office! My son feels that they are ‘careful, gentle, speedy and kind.’ I appreciate how organized and friendly their staff is. From our first visit, they have put my children at ease. I especially appreciate that they take the time to explain each step of the process to both me and my children. Their rewards cards are an extra bonus and motivator for my kids.”
“This office is one of the best I have experienced. I am truly amazed at the innovative ways they’ve come up with to incentivize the kids to be responsible in their oral hygiene. If you are anywhere close to the Bay Area, I would highly recommend this office (definitely worth a drive!).”
“What I observed and appreciated was that Dr. Ikeda and her staff took the time to analyze each of my sons’ jaws and teeth, kept them very comfortable and happy as they did, and they warmly explained TO THEM what they were seeing in a way that was easy for them to understand… After our initial meetings with Dr. Ikeda, I knew that we were in skilled and caring hands.”
“From my child: ‘I think this is a really good place because I like all the people who work there. When I ask questions they actually explain to me what is going on. I enjoy being there and I think it’s the best orthodontist for me!’ Great staff, very clean facilities. Everyone is helpful and answers all questions, which is very comforting for parents like me who are new to orthodontics. Highly recommend!”
“There is an art to creating the ‘perfect smile’ that is different for each patient. What works on one patient does not work on all, and they approach each patient as a unique individual and thoughtfully craft a treatment program designed to minimize discomfort. They do amazing work.”
