Start Your Smile Journey from the Comfort of Home
In today’s fast-paced world, convenience matters. Whether you’re balancing work, school, or family schedules, finding time to visit the orthodontist can be a challenge. That’s why more patients than ever are choosing to begin their orthodontic journey with a virtual consultation.
At Hansen Orthodontics, we’re proud to offer teleorthodontic consultations for families in Wichita, Hutchinson, Goddard, and surrounding areas. With virtual assessments, Dr. Hansen can evaluate your smile, answer your questions, and help you take the first step toward treatment—all without leaving your home.
What Is a Virtual Orthodontic Consultation?
A virtual consultation is a secure, online appointment where you connect with our team remotely. Using photos or video, Dr. Hansen can assess your teeth, bite, and alignment to determine if orthodontic treatment is needed—and which options may be right for you.
It’s the perfect way to:
- Get expert insight before committing to in-person care
- Save time on travel and scheduling
- Start your smile journey from anywhere
Whether you’re considering braces, Invisalign, or early orthodontic care for your child, a virtual consultation makes it easier than ever to get the answers you need.
How Virtual Consultations Work

We’ll guide you through taking and uploading a few simple photos of your teeth and smile from different angles—using your phone or camera.
Step 2: Dr. Hansen Reviews Your Case
Dr. Hansen will evaluate the images and provide a professional opinion on whether treatment is recommended, what type may be best, and what next steps to expect.
Step 3: Receive a Personalized Plan
You’ll receive follow-up communication with:
- Treatment recommendations
- A general timeline
- Cost estimates and financing options
- Instructions for scheduling your in-person appointment (if needed)
Benefits of Teleorthodontics
Convenience
No need to rearrange your day or drive across town. Virtual consults can be done from home, school, or work—whenever it fits your schedule.
Early Answers
Get clarity about whether treatment is needed, what it might involve, and what to expect, before stepping foot in the office.
Family-Friendly
Virtual consults are ideal for busy families with children who may be candidates for early orthodontic treatment. You can get an expert opinion without the hassle of coordinating multiple appointments.
Safe and Accessible
Virtual assessments are a great solution for patients who want to minimize time in-office, especially during cold and flu season or for those with transportation challenges.
What Can We Evaluate Virtually?
A virtual consultation is great for initial assessments such as:
- Crowded or spaced teeth
- Overbites, underbites, or open bites
- Shifting or relapsed teeth
- Invisalign candidacy
- Monitoring growth and development in young children
While some complex issues may still require an in-person exam, a virtual consult is an excellent first step toward understanding your orthodontic needs.
