Our office is unique in that we utilize the Patient Manager System, which Dr. Bray first implemented and now presents to other orthodontists, helping them to use the system in their office. When you come to our office, you will be assigned to a patient manager. Your patient manager works with the doctor and will see you each time you come to the office for a visit. By having your own patient manager, you are able to form a relationship with the person who knows all about your treatment.

We are a strong team that works together to provide the best orthodontic treatment to our favorite member of our team: YOU! We hold many staff meetings and retreats to continue to communicate the need of our patients to each other and to consistently provide treatment in the best possible manner.

Its more important than ever to brush and floss regularly when you have braces, so the teeth and gums are healthy during orthodontic treatment. Patients who do not keep their teeth clean may require more frequent visits to the dentist for a professional cleaning. Adults who have a history of gum disease should also see a periodontist during orthodontic treatment. Watch the two videos below on the proper care of braces during orthodontic treatment.

What can you eat? Lets talk about what you shouldnt eat! For the first day or so, stick to soft foods. Avoid tough meats, hard breads, and raw vegetables. Before long, youll be able to bite a cucumber again. But youll need to protect your orthodontic appliances when you eat for as long as youre wearing braces.

When you get your braces on, you may feel general soreness in your mouth and teeth may be tender to biting pressures for 3 5 days. Take Tylenol or whatever you normally take for headache or discomfort. The lips, cheeks and tongue may also become irritated for one to two weeks as they toughen and become accustomed to the braces. We will supply wax to put on the braces in irritated areas to lessen discomfort.

To successfully complete orthodontic treatment, the patient must work together with the orthodontist. The teeth and jaws can only move toward their corrected positions if the patient consistently wears the rubber bands or other appliances as prescribed. Lack of cooperation following instructions and damaged appliances lengthen the treatment time so please follow instructions.
