Summer is just around the corner!

Now that summer is just around the corner, we know you all are starting to make big plans for vacations and trips! The summer months can be a busy time for a lot of our patients, and we know how hectic your lives can be! Just be sure to remember keep up with your dental health care and your appointments with our practice!

During the summer, there are also a lot of foods and beverages that we all love to enjoy, but often these treats can damage our teeth. Sugary foods and drinks can be harmful to your dental health, so stay diligent by brushing at least three times a day and flossing at least once!

We look forward to hearing all about your plans for the summer, and be sure to take lots of pictures that you can share with us on Facebook! Stay safe, have fun, and brush and floss your teeth!

Wishing you a safe and relaxing Memorial Day weekend!

Memorial Day weekend, a time to remember and honor the men and women lost while serving for our country. Memorial Day is also the unofficial start of summer, and for many folks getting out of town for three days after being cooped up in the classroom or the office spells sweet, sweet relief.

What about you? What are you up to this Memorial Day weekend? Whether you are headed to a barbecue, a camping trip, or just hitting the great American open roads, we’d like to hear all about it!

Our entire team wishes you a happy, safe and relaxing Memorial Day weekend!

“Am I Too Old for Braces?”

Absolutely not! Orthodontic treatment for adults is becoming more and more common. In fact, the number of adults getting braces has actually climbed 24 percent since 1996! More adults than ever are realizing that orthodontic treatment is not just for kids, and can help improve the aesthetics and health of a smile of any age! In a society where appearance matters and can help make the difference between getting a job or a promotion, adults are choosing wisely to invest in orthodontic treatment.

Some of the most common reasons our adult patients come to us considering orthodontic treatment include:

• Teeth that are crowded or spaced apart, sometimes as a result of tooth decay or gum disease
• Pain or pressure from crooked teeth or a misaligned jaw
• A bad bite or malocclusion, causing teeth to fit together incorrectly

Most of all though, adult patients come to our office seeking a healthier mouth and a more confident smile! Orthodontic treatment at our office can be successful at any age, and adults especially can appreciate the benefits of a beautiful smile. As an adult patient, we recognize that you have different needs than our younger patients, and we will work with you to ensure you receive the most appropriate treatment and that your needs are met with understanding and respect from us. If you’ve been thinking about getting that perfect smile, we would love to have you visit for a consultation. We understand you have a busy schedule, and will work with you to find a time that is convenient for you. Please visit our website or give our office a call to schedule your appointment today!

All About Your Initial Consultation!

At Sylvania, Lambertville, & Maumee Orthodontics, Drs. Simon, Haerian, and Ludwig's main goal is to provide patients with the highest quality care in a friendly and efficient atmosphere. We want you to enjoy coming to see us and to feel comfortable with the treatment you receive. With patient relationships being a top priority, we are dedicated to creating beautiful, healthy smiles that will last a lifetime.

During your initial complimentary consultation, you’ll receive a comprehensive clinical evaluation, and we will determine if it is the right time to begin treatment or if further growth and development are needed. If treatment is indicated, we will provide you with the complete information about the nature of the orthodontic concern and the approximate length of treatment time and the fee.

You will also have an opportunity to tour our office. Both of our locations in Sylvania and Lambertville feature reception rooms that are furnished with televisions and an “on deck” area with video games! Further, each treatment area offers privacy walls and a television to help pass the time and take your mind off of your treatment during your appointment!

We are excited to help you achieve a lifetime of healthy and beautiful smiles, and we look forward to being by your side each step of the way! Don’t hesitate to contact our office if you have any questions about orthodontic treatment, and be sure to connect with us on Facebook!

One of the great ways to improve your confidence is to improve your smile. And that begins with a consultation at our office. After all, what better time to avoid having crooked teeth in your adulthood than coming in for a consultation?
