What is your New Year's Resolution?

The year is almost over, and our team at Village ORTHO thought we’d ask: what was memorable about 2010 for you, and what are you most looking forward to in 2011? Do you have a new year's resolution, or any exciting plans for the coming year?

Have a safe and happy New Year, to all our patients, friends, family, and all our dental and medical colleagues.

See you in 2011 everyone!

Straight talk with Village ORTHO

Some people wonder why the doctors at Village ORTHOdontics work so hard to give our patients straight teeth. Of course it’s nice to have a smile full of evenly aligned teeth, but did you know that straightening your teeth can keep them healthier? Straight teeth lead to better oral hygiene, increasing your chances of keeping your own natural teeth for a lifetime.

Straight teeth are less prone to decay, because they collect less plaque – the sticky colorless substance that forms on our teeth and leads to tooth decay; and they are easier to keep clean!

If you’re wondering whether your teeth might cause problems because they are out of alignment, give us a call to set up a consultation. The doctors at Village Orthodontics can help you decide whether or not you will benefit from orthodontic treatment. At Village Orthodontics, we believe that orthodontic care is more than just placing braces and straightening teeth; orthodontics is about connecting with our patients on a personal level to create a unique, and positive orthodontic experience!

Learn more by giving us a call or asking us on Facebook!

Lastly, congratulations to our wonderful patient Philip!!! Philip contributed to our Food Drive and, in return, has won 4 tickets to see "How the Grinch Stole Christmas - THE MUSICAL"!! Thank you to all who donated - your efforts are appreciated times a million!

Happy Holidays!

In this season given to tidings of comfort and joy, and as our team at Village ORTHO reflect on the year that was, we’d like to ask you, our wonderful patients and readers ...

What do you love about the holidays this year? Being with your loved ones? A clean slate for 2011? Opening presents by the fireplace? All the delicious food? Also, what gift are you most looking forward to getting this year?

We’d love if you shared with us here, or on our Facebook page, all the things you love about the holidays. Stay warm, and don’t forget to stay away from those sweets! Lastly, we're only 40 cans away from seeing the Grinch's heart grow one more size! Please help by bringing your non-perishable food items into the office by Saturday =)

Happy Holidays!
