Transformation Tuesday! ✨🦷🙌🏻
This smile makeover is more than just cosmetic- it’s functional too! Our patient came to us with multiple bite issues and TMJ discomfort. Using a combination of Invisalign aligners and rubber bands, Dr. Otto crafted a smile that not only looks amazing but feels great, too. 💫
Just 18 months later... total transformation! Now that’s ortho magic. 🪄✨

Happy @aao.info #SmilesAt7 Day! 🦷7️⃣🎉
Did you know that age 7 is the perfect time for an initial visit to the orthodontist? 👧🏼
Today is all about raising awareness of how important it is to see an orthodontist early. This doesn’t always mean your child will begin treatment at age 7 but it gives us the opportunity to diagnose any issues early on and intervene if necessary. Early intervention can save you a lot of time and money but can also save your child a lot of discomfort in the long run.
