Last week we let you know about our Football Helmet Knowledge contest that is currently going on in the office, but we have a few other upcoming events to share with you too!

October is next month, and that means Halloween is just around the corner. October also marks the National Orthodontic Health Month, and to celebrate will be holding our 5th annual Candy Buy Back Event. Just like last year, Everyone will receive $1.00 for every pound of candy surrendered!

Hope everyone's school year is going great so far!

Congratulations Traveling T-Shirt Contest Winners!

All summer long we ran our Traveling T-Shirt Contest, which asked patients to snap a photo of themselves in their Weaver Orthodontics t-shirt for a chance to win $50.00! Some patients took their contest photos while right here in the Brunswick and Jesup areas, while others sent in photos on vacation in far away places!

The winners for Furthest Distance were the Watkins Family, who traveled all the way to Turkey this summer. The winner for Highest Point was Caroline B, who traveled to 35,000 ft in an airplane on the way to Seattle, WA. Jamie R. won for having the most people in a picture- 50,000 fans at an Atlanta Braves game! Madison and Morgan B. won for submitting a photo with a celebrity...Mickey Mouse!

For most "unique photo", we had two winners. Tanner D, for being photographed sitting behind the US President's desk, and Kim T, who took a cool picture of Chicago with the Skyline in the reflection.

Be sure to head over to our Facebook page where we've shared a few photos of the winners. Congratulations to all our winners, and thank you to everyone who participated!

Finally, stay tuned for our Fall contest, "Test Your Football Helmet Knowledge.” Question sheets can be picked up at the office and the winner will receive a “Football package” which consist of a pizza party for the whole family and movie tickets! The contest will run throughout the season!

Regular checkups are essential in maintaining good oral health

Are you brushing and flossing daily properly during your orthodontic treatment? If yes, that’s great! But, don’t forget that it’s also important for you to visit your general dentist every 3-to-6 months in addition to brushing your teeth and flossing (and visiting our office, of course). Regular dental checkups are important for maintaining good oral health, especially during orthodontic treatment.

Your general dentist can check for problems that might not be seen or felt, detect cavities and early signs of decay, treat oral health problems early and show you how to properly brush and floss your teeth.

During an oral exam your dentist can check the health of your mouth, teeth, gums, cheeks and tongue. Checkups will also include a thorough teeth cleaning and polishing. If you have not been to the dentist in the last six months, let us know during your next visit and we will provide a few great references in the greater Brunswick and Jesup, NJ areas!
