Adult Orthodontic Treatment in Sandy & Gresham, OR

After treating thousands of orthodontic patients, it still amazes me when I hear adults say “there is nothing you could do for my teeth” as they subconsciously hide their smile. For all those adults that have thought this at one time or another, I say let the facts speak for themselves.

Across America, adults make up 25% or more of the patients having orthodontic treatment. What’s even more amazing is that this number is climbing. Realizing this, many of the orthodontic technology advancements that have arrived in the last 10 years specifically target adult orthodontic problems.

Suresmile: braces combined with computer aided design allow for average adult treatment times to be reduced by as much as 40%. Braces for 12 to 18 months sounds a whole lot better than braces for 3 years.

Clear Aligner Therapy: mild orthodontic problems can now be treated with a series of very thin clear trays that fit over the teeth. These trays are nearly invisible, and unless someone looks real close at your teeth, they will think that your smile is somehow “magically” getting better over time.

Damon Braces: their have been great advancements in the actual types of braces we use for treatment. Damon Braces have been designed to be very specific in treating many of the crowding and dental bite problems that adults feel are untreatable. I personally have treated several adults with Damon Braces that thought they would need teeth pulled or jaw surgery to be able to get orthodontic treatment, and they couldn’t have been more far off from the truth.

Hey! June is national smile month, isn’t it time to take the leap!?

Smile--June is National Smile Month!

We hope you enjoyed the long holiday weekend! Now that we’re in June, it’s once again time to remind our patients to smile wide! After all, June is National Smile Month, and a great time to promote good dental habits such as brushing, flossing and visiting the dentist, in addition to taking care of your braces!

We would like to hear about things that make you smile. As an example, going to the beach over Memorial Day Weekend with my family and catching razor clams sure makes me smile. In fact, any time I get to spend with my wife and children gets me grinning from ear to ear!




I also find myself turning my frown upside-down when I have a drink from the “lemon” water that Nan makes for our patients all summer long (occasionally you will find limes, or cucumbers, but it all tastes great).



FACEBOOK CONTEST: When you get a chance, we are asking our patients and their families to please post a picture or write a small entry on our Facebook page, letting us know what makes you smile. We will give the winning entry an Oral-B electric toothbrush valued at over $100, to be awarded the first week of July. Good Luck and Spread the Word!!!
