Start Orthodontics During Summer While Your Child Is Out Of School! [BLOG]

Summer is an ideal time to start your child’s orthodontic treatment!

Your schedule a bit more flexible when they’re off from school, which means there’s more room for those longer initial appointments to get started, and you and your child will both have time to adjust to life with braces, no matter what kind, before they begin a hectic new school year!

But those aren’t the only advantages of visiting Smiles by Dr. W & Dr. R this summer to give your child a straight, healthy smile!

2 Ways We Make Orthodontics Easier For Your Child!

Here are two ways we can make your child’s orthodontic experience easier in Boca Raton:

*Invisalign & Lingual Braces Give Them More Confidence*

Not every child needs to go through the traditional orthodontic journey with metal brackets and wires to achieve their smile goals.

We offer options that are just as effective in straightening crooked teeth and correcting bite alignment problems in ways that are much less conspicuous.

The first is Invisalign, which uses customized, clear aligners that fit over their upper and lower teeth. You can barely see them, which helps young patients feel more confident when they’re at school among friends and classmates. There’s the added advantage of being able to take their Invisalign trays out during lunch so they don’t have to rush off to the restroom afterwards to pick food out of their braces!

Another great option is lingual braces, which still use brackets and wires, only they’re bonded to the back of each tooth so you can’t see anything at all!

During a consultation, Dr. Rothstein or Dr. Wohlgemuth can determine which of our orthodontic methods will be better suited to your child’s bite and teeth position, but it’s nice to know that there are options that will help them feel more confident throughout their treatment.

*See Faster Results With Technology Like suresmile®*

One of the innovations we’re most proud of in Boca Raton is suresmile® software.

We’re able to rely on the experience and skill of our expert orthodontists, but combining that with suresmile technology takes your child’s orthodontic experience to the next level.

It’s a 3-D software that helps us plan and carry out their treatment with more precision and accuracy, which could result in as much as 33% faster results than conventional methods.

To be clear, we provide all the latest tools and techniques in modern orthodontics to make sure your child’s treatment is as comfortable and pleasant as possible, but we all know that kids are in a big hurry to finish up and start showing off their straight, beautiful teeth as soon as possible.

We don’t blame them, which is why we’ve invested in suresmile technology, and several other innovations, to help them see results as quickly as possible.

Set Your Child’s Smile Up For Success [BLOG]

As a parent, you do all you can to keep your kids safe and healthy.

As orthodontists, it’s our job to be your support in that effort by making sure their teeth are well-aligned through various orthodontic interventions and treatments.

At Smiles by Dr. W & Dr. R, we want to help you set your child’s smile up for success, so today, we’re offering some tips on how to make that happen!

*Keep Up With Those Important Dental Check-Ups*

Along with instilling good oral hygiene habits in your kids at home, it’s important to take them to the dentist every six months for cleanings and exams.

This will help keep their teeth and gums safe from harmful plaque and tartar buildup, as well as detect cavities and other problems early enough to treat them before they do serious damage to their smiles.

You should ask your dentist about preventive treatments like fluoride varnishes and dental sealants to prevent tooth decay.

*Get Them A Properly-Fitted Athletic Mouthguard*

If your child stays active in sports, it’s important to protect their jaw, teeth, and gums from injury.

The best way to do that is with an athletic mouthguard, but not the kind you find in sporting goods stores.

You need to give them one that’s custom-made, like you’ll find at Smiles by Dr. W & Dr. R. It’s the only way to get a precise, comfortable fit and better protection against harm.

That way the effects of any forceful, direct contact to the mouth will be minimized, and their oral health preserved. A custom mouthguard also allows your child to breathe more easily than if they wore a guard that was too big and constantly shifted around in their mouth.

*Seek Orthodontic Guidance When They’re Young*

The earlier you begin seeking the guidance of a highly-skilled orthodontist, the better off your child’s eventual treatment process and experience will be.

That’s because our professionals have the training and technology to closely monitor your child’s development and determine what sort of orthodontic interventions might better set them up for a healthy, straight smile.

We can also explore surgical orthodontics if that’s the best way to prevent or correct complicated problems in the future.

When the time is right, we’ll begin the proper method to give them the smile you both want, one that looks and feels great and boosts their confidence well into adulthood.

Schedule A Complimentary Consultation

Being a parent is tough, especially when they’re young.  It takes a strong support system to get them through these important years with a healthy, strong smile they can feel proud of.

That’s where we can help you!

We’ll monitor your child’s dental development and make sure we’re taking the right steps to set them up for smile success!
