Another smile in the making! 💫
This rockstar recently got a palatal expander in our office as well as a few brackets. At her next appointment, we will add a wire to her braces and get this smile champ moving along with her initial phase of treatment! 🦷😁

Happy Easter 🐣🐰💐🥚🌷
Remember to enjoy Easter treats but also to brush your teeth after! 🦷🙌🏻 Anything sticky, crunchy, or chewy can break brackets so eat your treats with your braces in mind! 😁

Dr. Larkin was recently featured as a “Face of Advocacy” in the @aao.info Orthodontic Advocate! 🦷📰
AAO’s graphic designer is actually one of our patients moms and designed the cover of the issue Dr. Larkin was featured in! Yesterday, she brought Dr. Larkin a copy to her son’s appointment.
Thank you to our patients for always thinking of us and thank you to Dr. Larkin- your dedication and impactful contributions to the field are valued and appreciated! 🙌🏻

Transformation Thursday 🦷✨
This patient presented with an underbite! He had previously been told he was not a candidate for @Invisalign. When he came to our office, our doctors disagreed! We were able to correct his bite using only Invisalign aligners and rubber band wear! Dr. Roland did an amazing job with this one 🙌🏻🙌🏻
