Node one is a free consultation — and a short drive you'll make many times.
From central Port Moody, our clinic at 1158 The High Street is about ten minutes by car via St. Johns or Barnet, or a short Millennium Line trip from Inlet Centre to Lincoln Station, then a few minutes' walk. Underground parking is off Atlantic Avenue. We hold after-school slots and alternating Saturdays for school-age patients from Heritage Woods, Moody Middle and the surrounding elementaries.
What Port Moody families ask us
Mostly about logistics: whether a Grade 9 student can come alone by SkyTrain to adjustments (yes, and many do), whether Saturday appointments exist (alternating weeks — book ahead), and whether a seven-year-old's first look is worth the drive (it is; it's free and usually reassuring). Clinically, Port Moody's family-heavy demographic means much of what we see from the area is early orthodontics — the age-seven check, expansion, growth guidance — followed by the teenage main event a few years later.
What happens at the first visit
A free consultation with a certified specialist in orthodontics: photographs, a scan, usually a panoramic X-ray, an examination of the bite and the jaws, and a plain-language explanation of what we see. For children around seven, the most common outcome is "developing well — see you in a year," and monitoring visits are free. For teens and adults, you leave with every viable option — braces or Invisalign — priced side by side in writing, with retainers included. Book a free consultation or call (604) 949-0654.
Compare us fairly
There are other credible orthodontic practices in the Tri-Cities and we'd encourage a comparison. Take the same questions to both — who diagnoses, what the fee includes, whether retainers are inside it, whether the consultation started with records — and choose the reasoning you could explain to a friend. If a closer clinic meets the standard as well as we do, choose it. The FAQ and the cost guide give you the questions.
If it were our own family
We'd book the free consultation, bring the same questions we'd take to any clinic, and choose the reasoning we could explain — knowing the drive from Port Moody is one we'd make twenty times.
