Just started your smile journey? It’s completely normal to feel some tenderness for 3–5 days after an adjustment, or to feel like your lips and cheeks are "learning" where the new brackets are.

How to get comfortable:
• Stick to soft foods until the initial tenderness fades.
• Manage pain safely: Stick to Tylenol (Acetaminophen) for discomfort. Other pain relievers like Ibuprofen or Aspirin can actually slow down the tooth movement we are working so hard to achieve!
• Soothe irritation: A warm salt-water rinse works wonders for sore spots.

If you ever experience sharp pain or a broken appliance that wax can’t fix, we are here for you. Just give us a call, and we’ll get you in to resolve it. We’re in this together!

Is your child ready for their first ortho visit? Early assessment is about more than just straight teeth—it's about healthy jaw development.

The Benefits of Early Intervention:
1️⃣ Intercepts problems before they become permanent.
2️⃣ Creates room for permanent teeth to grow in properly.
3️⃣ Guards against trauma to protruding teeth.
4️⃣ Can shorten the time spent in braces during the teenage years.

Don't wait for all the permanent teeth to arrive—let’s check in on how that beautiful smile is developing today.

Brains, Braces and Butterbeer!
✨This past weekend we had an amazing time at the AAO conference in Orlando! 🦷 We learned some new skills by day and tested our courage on roller coasters by night 🎢. Grateful for a team that works hard and invests in education to give our patients the best care possible- with a side of Butterbeer of course! 💪🏻We look forward to implementing lessons we learned and continuing to be the best orthodontic practice around! 🤩

Thinking about straightening your teeth? Many people assume orthodontics is just about aesthetics, but it’s actually a key component of your long-term oral health!

How do you know if it’s the right time to start your journey? Consider these factors:

• Bite Alignment: Do you have an overbite, underbite, or crossbite that causes jaw pain or difficulty chewing?

• Ease of Cleaning: Crowded or overlapping teeth are harder to floss and brush, which can lead to decay over time.

• Confidence Boost: Sometimes the best reason is simply wanting to feel more comfortable and confident when you smile.

• Age: It’s never too late! We treat patients of all ages, from teens to adults in their 50s and beyond.

The only way to know for sure is a personalized assessment. Let’s take a look at your smile and discuss your goals; book an appointment with us at https://app.nexhealth.com/appts/atlantic-orthodontics/appt-slot!
