A few helpful webisodes about orthodontics, from Dr. Jensen

Dr. Jensen and his team would like to point you to a few interesting webisodes about orthodontics, located on the YouTube page of the American Association of Orthodontists, or AAO.

There, they tend to post some very pertinent videos about orthodontic treatment, as well as state-of-the-art technology in orthodontia. These include "Orthodontic Treatment Basics" (included above) "Common Bite Problems Seen in Children" and "Does My Child Need Braces?"

We think you may find these webisodes interesting, as well as enlightening. If you have any questions about the videos, or your treatment here at please give us a call.

This April, play it safe with Dr. Jensen

April, also known as National Facial Protection Month, is upon us, and for Dr. Jensen and the team, that only means one thing: it’s once again time to remind our dear patients to protect their faces and mouths! Above is a helpful video from our friends at the AAO about staying safe on the ball field this spring.

According to the National Youth Sports Safety Foundation, children, high-school athletes and adults will have more than 5,000,000 teeth knocked out in sporting events this year. By simply wearing a properly fitted mouth guard or other form of protection, you can greatly reduce your chances of traumatic facial injuries. This is even more important while you are in orthodontic treatment, when patients risk damaging their appliances by not wearing the proper mouth protection.

We hope the above video helps; Protective gear is vital during these activities! If you have any further questions about any of the tips offered in the video, please contact us. And remember to have fun and stay safe!
