A few helpful webisodes about orthodontics

Drs. James Tomassetti, Edward Lin, and our team at Apple Creek Orthodontics would like to point you to a few interesting webisodes about orthodontics, located on the YouTube page of the American Association of Orthodontists, or AAO.

There, they tend to post some very pertinent videos about orthodontic treatment, as well as state-of-the-art technology in orthodontia. These include "Orthodontic Treatment Basics," "Common Bite Problems Seen in Children" and "Does My Child Need Braces?"

We think you may find these webisodes interesting, as well as enlightening. If you have any questions about the videos, or your treatment here at Apple Creek Orthodontics, please give us a call.

Smile Week at Apple Creek Orthodontics

It’s National Smile Week, and a GREAT time to remind our patients at Apple Creek Orthodontics to practice good oral hygiene to keep those teeth shining during your orthodontic treatment!

Here are a few simple steps you can take to improve your oral health so that you may celebrate National Smile Week for many, many years to come:

* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth and braces.
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks during your orthodontic treatment
* Visit your dentist regularly (every 6 months or as recommended by your dentist)!

And remember to smile at people you come across throughout the week, whether you know them or not. Smiles are contagious, and are a good thing to give and to get. We hope you’re all having a relaxing summer!

The advantage of SureSmile® at Apple Creek Orthodontist

We hope you're having a relaxing weekend! Our creative staff at Apple Creek Orthodontics have yet to blog about the advantage of SureSmile treatment at our convenient Appleton office, so today we thought we'd share a video about the power of SureSmile treatment. Thanks to state-of-the-art technology, Drs. Tomassetti and Lin can now get a 3-D image inside your mouth that helps them decide exactly how they'd like to align your teeth.

Through the use of SureSmile technology, Drs. Lin and Tomassetti can offer you a "braces experience" that provides shorter treatment times, fewer office visit, less overall discomfort and high-quality results. In fact, your average treatment time with SureSmile is almost 40 percent faster than traditional braces.

Check out what patients are saying about SureSmile!

For more information on SureSmile, please visit our website or give us a call at 920-268-4331! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!!
