Our Appointment Options
At NQ Ortho we recognise that not every patient needs the same type of appointment, so we offer several different assessment pathways depending on your concerns and the level of support you may need.
Orthodontic Discovery Appointment
For patients wanting general information about braces or aligners, we offer a shorter Orthodontic Discovery Appointment with our Treatment Coordinator.
Orthodontic Initial Appointment
Our traditional Orthodontic Initial Appointment is the most common option and includes a comprehensive assessment with the orthodontist and Treatment Coordinator.
Sensory Sensitive Appointment
We also offer longer appointments for patients who may benefit from a quieter, lower-stimulation environment with additional time and fewer interruptions.
Myofunctional Appointment
For patients with concerns involving tongue posture, speech, oral function or facial development, we offer combined Myofunctional Appointments with orthodontics and speech pathology.
Face Forward FNQ Collaborative Clinic
For more complex airway, TMJ, breathing, feeding or multidisciplinary concerns, Dr Rhonda also runs the Face Forward FNQ Collaborative Clinic with her sisters at Upward Life Family Practice.
More Than Straight Teeth
NQ Ortho offers a range of services beyond traditional orthodontics, tailored to each patient's unique needs.
Sensory-Aware Care

Myofunctional Assessments
Combined orthodontic and speech pathology appointments addressing tongue posture, oral habits and facial development.
