Halloween is right around the corner! One of the common orthodontic myths throughout this fall season is that orthodontic treatment is purely cosmetic. That is farther from the truth. With the best innovative technology in our Syracuse community, we are passionate about making our patients love their smiles. Smiles are the most noticeable results when finishing treatment, however, there is much more that goes on below the surface of our teeth and gums. Our overall health is important before, during and after orthodontic treatment. When your teeth and jaws are aligned, your bite, the way you chew and speak all are made better through orthodontic treatment, leading to overall improved health. The beautiful smile from braces, Invisalign and other orthodontic treatment is an outward benefit. Orthodontists play a larger role in healthcare than is generally realized, and our teeth and jaws play a significant role, which is why it is important to keep them healthy and in tip-top shape. ...

If you’ve visited the pumpkin patch here in Syracuse or gone on the hayride, you know Halloween is right around the corner! October is a special month for all of us at Coleman Orthodontics because it is National Orthodontic Health Month ! We love seeing so many beautiful smiles transformed in our community. October is the perfect opportunity to mix in the fun of Halloween, costumes, and candies with education for Orthodontic Health Month. With so many Halloween treats, there are certain types of candies and treats that are more harmful than others. These candies can cause damage to braces causing an interruption in an orthodontic treatment plan. Here are the five worst Halloween treats you should avoid if you or your child has braces. 1. Hard Candy While soft candy, such as chocolate and cookies are okay for those wearing braces, hard candies are a big treat to avoid this month and during your orthodontic treatment. Hard candies can cause wires to come loose, brackets to break ...

What is the right age your child should be seen by an orthodontist? The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends that all children have a check-up with an orthodontist by the time they reach age seven, for early detection of any potential problems. We know seven sounds young and may even early to be thinking about braces. However, early diagnosis and treatment can help guide facial development and tooth eruption thereby preventing more serious problems from occurring later in your child's life. Treating children during these early growth stages allows results to be achieved that may not be possible once facial bones have fully developed. A check-up may reveal that your child’s bite is fine. Or it may determine that early treatment is indicated to prevent or intercept more serious problems from developing as our team can detect subtle problems with jaw growth and emerging teeth while some baby teeth are still present. While your child’s teeth may appear to be stra...

A new school year is just around the corner. This means new opportunities for growth in the school year ahead. A new school year is the perfect opportunity to restart or implement healthy habits when it comes to our smiles and teeth. At Coleman Orthodontics, the vision of our practice is to “Embrace the Experience!” We don’t just provide orthodontic treatment to patients, we provide patients with an entire experience that can truly be life changing. Here are 5 ways to restart or implement healthy habits. #1) Switch Toothbrush: The ADA recommends switching out your toothbrush every 3-4 months for health reasons and because the bristles can be too stiff or damaged. This simple step will keep your mouth and teeth feeling fresh and healthy. #2) Pledge to Floss More: Every patient that comes through our office, we ensure to remind them of a simple, yet effective oral health habit - flossing. It’s never too late to late to begin flossing. #3) Scheduling Visits: It is important to r...
