✨Mellion Smile Monday! ✨⁠
⁠
At the new patient exam, the patient presented with:⁠
🌀 Excessive overjet⁠
🌀 Crowding⁠
🌀 Overbite⁠
⁠
The patient and family had been part of our practice for a number of years with this patient’s siblings completing treatment prior to him. The goal for this patient was to reduce the overjet (how far forward the upper teeth were in relationship to the lower teeth) as well as the overbite (how far down the upper teeth cover the lower teeth). ⁠
⁠
Dr. Zach and Dr. Alex prescribed braces with removal of maxillary first premolars within a few weeks of having braces placed to reduce crowding and bring teeth into alignment. The patient was also prescribed elastics to correct his bite.⁠
⁠
The patient did well with his elastics and finished his treatment ⁠with a great smile! ⁠
⁠
The patient continues to wear retainers to keep his smile straight! ⁠What do you think of this Mellion Smile?⁠

😶 Which one speaks to you?

10 Reasons Why You Wouldn’t Want to Be Our Patient 😏

☕️ 1. We always have fresh { f r e e } coffee from so you won’t be spending your money at your regular coffee shop.

🧑‍💻  2. You prefer dental records be kept on paper and not easy for your provider to locate if you call with questions.

🙃 3. There’s nothing you want to change about your teeth or your smile. In fact, you prefer not to smile. Ever.

🎁 4. You don’t like the swag bags, shirts, or water tumblers with personality. No Bad Smiles - No Bad Swag.

🙊 5. You don’t like speaking to your orthodontist at every appointment.

🤙 6. You think it’s weird that our board-certified orthodontists take the time to send you a personalized welcome video and are always smiling.

👯‍♂️ 7. Our team members have an average tenure of more than 6 years each. So you’ll probably see the same faces at each appointment.

😃 8. You don’t like cheery clinical or front office staff who greet you with a smile and answer your questions.

🪄 9.  You enjoy the taste of goopy molds rather than super fast 3D imaging. You’d also like us to develop film for your radiographs and intraoral photographs.

🔹 10. You don’t want to go to the most experienced Invisalign® provider in Northeast Ohio where the doctors have treated over FOUR THOUSAND patients using .

🤪 Ya know, we joke.

We hope these are all reasons you would LOVE to be our patient and we would LOVE to make you smile. We are always accepting new patients to the practice and would love to meet you during a complimentary consultation! Call us to schedule your initial visit today or request your appointment online!

✨Mellion Smile Monday! ✨⁠
⁠
At the new patient exam, this adult patient presented with:⁠
🌀 Open bite⁠
🌀 Misalignment⁠
🌀 TMJ concerns ⁠
⁠
While this adult patient preferred not to show her full face, ⁠
she wanted to share her smile transformation! ⁠
Our goal and hers was to correct her open bite and achieve a great smile:⁠
⁠
Dr. Zach and Dr. Alex prescribed Invisalign®, using their personal protocol for treating patients presenting with an open bite. For this patient to improve her arch coordination and help her chew and smile normally she was given three options for her personalized treatment plan: ⁠
1) Invisalign®,
2) braces or Invisalign® with TADs (mini implant to support tooth movement),
or 3) jaw surgery.⁠
⁠
The patient selected Mellion Orthodontics directed Invisalign® treatment. The patient took advantage of our DentalMonitoring remote scanning to reduce office visits and increase treatment efficiency to get her to her dream smile as fast as possible! She wore her aligners well and scanned consistently and was able to achieve a great smile!⁠
⁠
And, YES, this was done using ONLY Invisalign - no TADs, no surgery. Did you know if you have an open bite, surgery may not be your only option - it’s all personalized to your goal and your individual case!⁠
