Atmosphere

Our office is decorated in an Alaskan theme because we love living in the Great Land! We celebrate with photos, artwork, and profuse silk foliage. The caribou and moose antlers in our office were harvested or found by Dr. Sparaga and his family.

Check-in

A member of our administrative staff will greet you, give you a tour of the office, and introduce you to the staff during your Initial Examination. She will also schedule your appointments and handle payments and billing questions.

Reception Room

Our reception room offers a variety of the latest magazines in the event that you arrive early to an appointment. We are generally very timely and are unable to accept walk-ins. We understand unexpected needs arise on occasion, but we must maintain a fixed schedule to prevent running over on appointments and delaying other patients. If you have an orthodontic emergency or need to reschedule, please call us and we will work you in as soon as possible. In most cases, a technician will greet you and get your appointment started before you get a chance to even open a magazine in the reception room!

Toothbrush Station

Our technician always appreciates a fresh mouth and clean smile to work on! If you just came from lunch or haven’t brushed in the last couple hours, please use a complimentary toothbrush, some toothpaste, and freshen up for us before your appointment! It makes adjustments easier and evaluating the fit of aligners smoother when teeth are clean.

Kid Zone

If you bring children with you to your appointment, they are always welcome as long as they are old enough to quietly entertain themselves for the duration of your appointment. We do not allow children in the examination area because we generally have other patients in there and we must provide a semi-private and uninterrupted environment to evaluate our patients. We have children’s books, coloring books, crayons, a couch, two televisions, movies, and a PlayStation in our Kid Zone for your children to enjoy while you are in your appointment.
