We can’t believe it’s almost time for school again! Our entire at Irvine Orthodontics hope you had a great summer, but now it’s time to begin the school year anew. We have a few tips to keep in mind this school year while wearing braces:
1.Leave your retainers in your locker at lunch.
2. Remember to wear your elastics, it can make a big difference in getting your braces off on time.
3. Don’t forget to brush and floss after lunch.
4. Stay away from hard candy and foods – emergency appointments are generally taken care of during school hours.
5. Sign up for Text Message appointment reminders on our website. How cool!
We hope everyone has a great year at school! Lastly, a special request to all parents of kids returning to school: Please encourage your child to say ‘hi’ or smile if they see another child struggling to make friends or being bullied because he/she doesn't have many friends or because they are shy or not as pretty or not dressed in the most stylish clothes. Please let your child know that we never know what that person may be facing outside of school. And, tell them their kindness might just make a BIG difference in someone's life!
