If you have crowded teeth, jaw or facial tension, worn or broken teeth, or receding gums, it can be hard to know where to start.

Do you see an orthodontist? A TMJ doctor? A gum specialist? Someone for a “smile makeover”?

Often, patients end up doing treatment in pieces—one tooth, one problem at a time—without a clear long-term plan.

At Oraderm, we believe complex mouths deserve more than a quick price quote. They deserve a plan.

That’s why we created the Smile & Oral Health Assessment – ₱15,000.

What Is the Smile & Oral Health Assessment?

The Smile & Oral Health Assessment is a comprehensive first-step evaluation for patients with more than one concern. It is designed for people who may need:

Orthodontic treatment ( traditional braces or aligners)
TMJ and bite/function care
Full-mouth rehabilitation (FMR)
Gum recession treatment, including Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST)
Or a combination of these

Instead of guessing, we look at your teeth, gums, function, jaw joints, and existing dental work — then build a long-term plan that makes sense for you..

What’s Included in the Assessment?

The Assessment brings together, in one visit:

Digital 3D intraoral scan (a precise 3D model of your teeth and bite)
Clinical photographs
Comprehensive evaluation of teeth and gums
Oral function assessment (how your teeth work together)
TMJ & bite/function analysis
Advanced digital bite analysis and focused X-rays, when clinically indicated
Personalized treatment planning & consultation with a written plan

Panoramic and cephalometric X-rays can be arranged separately through our partner diagnostic center or we can review recent, good-quality X-rays you already have.

If done separately, this level of diagnostics and planning typically reaches around ₱20,000+ (not counting treatment). We structured it into a ₱15,000 assessment so patients can make better decisions before investing in major treatment..

Who Is This Assessment For?

This is an ideal first step if you:

Have crowded or crooked teeth and are considering braces or aligners
Experience jaw or TMJ discomfort, clicking, clenching, or headaches
Have worn, broken, or heavily restored teeth and suspect you may need full-mouth rehabilitation
Notice receding gums or root exposure and want to know if you are a candidate for Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST)
Have had “a lot of dentistry” but your mouth still doesn’t feel stable or comfortable

If you feel overwhelmed and unsure where to begin, this Assessment is designed for you.

Who Is This Assessment For?

This is an ideal first step if you:

• Have crowded or crooked teeth and are considering braces or aligners

• Experience jaw or TMJ discomfort, grinding/clenching, or headaches

• Have worn, broken, or heavily restored teeth and think you might need full-mouth rehabilitation

• Notice receding gums or root exposure and want to know if you’re a candidate for Pinhole Surgical Technique (PST) or other gum treatments

• Have “a lot of dental history” and want one clear, coordinated plan

For patients who are likely to invest significantly in their mouth, the Assessment is a one-time, structured way to see the whole picture before committing.

2026 Smile Priority Plan (Rate-Lock at 2025 Rates)

Because Oraderm is adjusting clinic fees in 2026, we created the 2026 Smile Priority Plan for patients who want to plan ahead.

If you:

Complete your Smile & Oral Health Assessment on or before January 31, 2026, and
Pay your Reservation Fee on or before March 31, 2026 (as low as 5% of your treatment plan), and
Start your treatment on or before June 30, 2026(first braces/aligner appointment, TMJ appliance delivery, first FMR prep, or PST procedure),
then your personalized treatment fees for the planned procedures will be based on 2025 rates and protected from the 2026 increase.

The Reservation Fee is deductible from your total treatment cost once treatment begins.

Why Start With an Assessment Instead of Jumping Into Treatment?

When you have multiple issues at the same time—crowding, worn teeth, TMJ symptoms, receding gums—it’s risky to treat just one area without understanding the rest.

The Smile & Oral Health Assessment is designed to:

• Give you clarity on what is really happening

• Prioritize what needs to be addressed first

• Provide a clear, realistic plan for the months or years ahead
