Your outcome is decided before we ever begin.
The Signature Consultation isn't an appointment before treatment — it's the first clinical step of it. Ninety minutes with one purpose: to understand your case so completely that nothing about your result is left to chance. The $300 fee includes 3D CBCT imaging, smile design, and a written treatment plan with Dr. Gjelaj, credited in full toward treatment begun within 30 days; a free virtual consult is also available.
We see what X-rays can't
Your visit begins with a 3D CBCT scan: a complete map of your jaw — bone volume, bone density, nerve pathways, sinus anatomy. The details an ordinary X-ray misses are exactly the details that determine how your case should be done. Here, they're never a surprise.
The doctor examines you herself
Dr. Gjelaj personally evaluates every tooth, your gums, your bite, and your facial structure. The doctor who plans your case is the one who performs it — so nothing is delegated, and nothing gets lost between an exam room and an operating chair.
Then, we sit down and talk
With your scan on the screen, Dr. Gjelaj walks you through what she sees — what's happening, why it's happening, and what's possible for you. Plain English. Every question answered. You'll understand your own mouth better than you ever have.
You leave with your roadmap
Not a brochure — a plan built from your anatomy: the approach designed for your case, the sequence of care, and what your journey looks like from first step to final smile. Before anything begins, everything is already decided.
By the time you walk out, you'll know:
Whether you're a candidate
Answered definitively from your own anatomy — not a guess from a quick look.
What's really going on
The full picture of your oral health, explained so it actually makes sense.
Every option that fits your case
And the honest trade-offs between them — including doing nothing.
Exactly what happens next
Your sequence of care, mapped from the first appointment to the final result.
Precision isn't a step in our process. It's the reason the process works. When every millimeter is measured and every decision is made in advance, the result stops being a hope — and becomes a plan.

Transparent cost & financing.
Don't let cost stand between you and the smile you deserve. We pair honest, published pricing with flexible financing — so the right care is never decided by what insurance will cover.
Insurance Billing
We don't participate with insurance plans — but we file claims on your behalf to maximize your benefits.
HSA / FSA Funds
Implants are an eligible HSA and FSA expense — use pre-tax dollars toward treatment.
Our commitment to your care, not your insurance.
Our office does not participate with any insurance plan. We've made the choice to not be restricted by insurance companies seeking to deny benefits to their clients — so our commitment remains to you, the patient. Even though your dental plan may not cover all necessary treatment, we will always present the best options for your health. We file claims to your benefit plan on your behalf, but the full cost of treatment is your responsibility.

Why isn't the consultation free?
The honest answer.
A no-charge consultation is, in most offices, a sales conversation — a brief look and a recommendation. The Signature Consultation here is a 90-minute clinical visit: a CBCT 3D scan, full X-rays, an intraoral scan, and a written treatment plan with exact pricing from Dr. Gjelaj. The $300 fee is credited in full toward your treatment within 30 days, so patients who move forward effectively pay nothing extra for their diagnostics. If you prefer to talk through options before any office visit, the virtual consult remains free — you can start there and decide whether an in-person exam is worth it.
Your questions, answered.
Everything you need to know about the Signature Consultation, implants, cost, and what to expect.
The Signature Consultation is a comprehensive, in-office diagnostic appointment with Dr. Gjelaj herself. It includes a full clinical exam, 3D CBCT imaging (cone-beam computed tomography), a review of your dental and medical history, and a personalized treatment plan with exact pricing. Unlike a quick "free consult" that simply quotes a fee, this is a real clinical workup — the same imaging and planning that guides your actual surgery.
