Monday, June 14th, 2010Does the thought of having braces for two whole years bring you down? Our team at Montano Orthodontics understands that one of the biggest concerns for orthodontic patients with braces is the length of their treatment. But you’re in luck, because Dr. Montano specializes in SureSmile, robotic braces that have revolutionized the industry. SureSmile, which combines digital 3-D imaging, has computer-aided treatment planning and customized archwires to straighten teeth almost 40 percent faster than traditional braces.
That means less time in braces, fewer office visits, less discomfort and ultimately greater results for you, the patient – all thanks to SureSmile’s stunning technology.
Last Month, CNN’s very own Dr. Sanjay Gupta filed a short report on SureSmile, which is becoming quite popular with our patients. We encourage you to check out the video and let us know what you think! Give us a call to learn more about SureSmile or to find out if you might be a candidate.
Montano Orthodontics Wants You To Smile!

It’s June already! Where does the time go?
Dr. Montano and team are excited to tell you June marks National Smile Month, a great time to remind our patients to brush, floss, practice good nutrition at home (and over the summer) while in orthodontic treatment to avoid cavities and gum disease, among other dental health issues.
After all, there’s more and more evidence that suggests folks with gum disease are more at risk for serious health conditions such as heart disease, diabetes and strokes.
Here are a few easy steps that can improve your oral health at home:
* Brush at least twice a day with fluoride toothpaste.
* Floss everyday to clean between your teeth and braces
* Reduce your intake of sugary foods and drinks during orthodontic treatment.
* Visit your general dentist regularly (usually every six months).
If you have questions about any of the tips here, we encourage you to give us a call at 661-665-7600! Also, don’t forget about our Share A Smile contest to win an iPad. You can see all the details by clicking here!
