Orthodontic Consultation

An initial orthodontic consultation with MDDr. Zuzana Hanuliaková, Ph.D. at the Olomouc clinic covers a full clinical assessment of the teeth, jaw, and bite, review of relevant X-rays and photographs, and a detailed discussion of suitable treatment options — including Invisalign clear aligners, fixed appliances, and removable appliances. Patients receive a personalised treatment plan outline with an indicative timeline and cost estimate.

The consultation is the essential first step for any orthodontic treatment. MDDr. Hanuliaková conducts a thorough clinical examination covering the occlusion (bite relationship), degree of crowding or spacing, jaw alignment, tooth symmetry, and soft tissue profile. Where existing X-rays are not available or are outdated, an orthopantomogram (panoramic X-ray) and cephalometric lateral skull X-ray are taken to provide the diagnostic data needed to plan treatment accurately. During the consultation, the doctor explains the findings, discusses suitable treatment approaches, and gives an honest assessment of expected outcomes and limitations. For patients interested in Invisalign, a ClinCheck 3D simulation may be initiated at this stage or at a subsequent records appointment. The consultation provides patients with enough information to make an informed decision about proceeding with treatment and which appliance type best fits their lifestyle and clinical needs. Appointments are by referral or self-referral — no GP referral is required for an orthodontic consultation. The Olomouc clinic sees patients of all ages, including children from approximately age 7 for early interceptive assessments.
