INVISALIGN DAY!!!

Hello fabulous fans!

I have been out most of this week on babysitting duties for my little nieces. I got a crash course in what it would be like to have 3 girls! So far I realized it's a lot of playing mediator in little arguments and listening to who can out-talk the other! In other words, DRAMA! But even though it has been challenging at times, it is so nice that my daughter and her cousins are like sisters, fights and all.:)

I wanted to talk about the upcoming Invisalign Day in our office, on Monday, April 26. We are so excited about this day! Why is it different from any other day? Well, for one, it's all about Invisalign! What could be more exciting than that? We have seen so many smiles transformed with this product. And without pain and suffering! Patients who come for Invisalign are usually there because they can't wait to get their next set of aligners. They can't wait to see their updated photos and see the changes in their mouth. It is so fun for me (and the patient) to look at these photos. Not only do the teeth change, but usually you see big changes in the gums, especially if there was a lot of crowding. The gums begin to be less puffy and red, and the patient can clean and floss more easily, and then the teeth somehow appear whiter. As an Invisalign patient gets further into treatment, he or she starts to pay closer attention to their smile and take better care of it. It's amazing! These are patients who actually want to be there, are excited to be there, instead of most people who dread their dental visits. It is very rewarding to be able to provide this service to our patients.

So for Invisalign Day, we try to get as many candidates ready before the actual day. If anyone is interested, we make an appointment for the consult before the Invisalign day, and take any records that may be needed.  If the patient has treatment to be completed, we will get everything finished before starting Invisalign.  Then, on Invisalign Day, we can take impressions for these patients and they are on their way to getting their aligners!  Of course we will also see any interested patients for consults on that day as well. For patients who get started during the month of April or on Invisalign Day, we are rewarding them with a $500 match and complimentary teeth whitening. For any patients who take their impressions on Invisalign Day, we are also offering a 5% discount!  We will have some raffles, goody bags, refreshments, and fun! It's a day to celebrate these patients!

We have done Invisalign Days in the past and they are usually quite successful. They are very motivating for our staff and are a great team-builder! We at Esthetic Dentistry, have seen the power that these little plastic trays hold!

Hope to see you on Invisalign Day!

Invisalign runs in the family

I saw this great gal, Emily today. She is vibrant and full of life and couldn't wait to get started on her Invisalign treatment. She came to us looking for Invisalign because her younger sister (by one year) had just started treatment herself! I wish I could say Emily's sister was my patient, but her sister lives in Colorado! But I thank her sister for getting Emily motivated! Emily had never had impressions  or "molds" taken of her teeth before.  So with those patients I am always a little worried that they might gag or be uncomfortable with the process. But Emily was so positive and ready to go. We took those impressions and got them both on the first try! She was thrilled and actually uttered the words, "That wasn't bad at all. That was actually FUN!" Now I can't say I hear those words too often from my patients. So it was a nice change! Emily also mentioned that her sister's treatment time was supposed to be longer than hers. I think she was excited about that. Competition between sisters? Nah! Never happens! :)
