The holiday season is the best time for sweets and treats. Unfortunately, this can be a little difficult for those of us who wear braces. At Travers Orthodontics, we want to make sure your orthodontic treatment plan continually works and straightens your teeth appropriately. To do so, we want to avoid any and all orthodontic emergencies, especially during the holidays. The last thing you want to do is come into the orthodontist’s office to fix a bracket or a wire on your braces. To avoid this, Dr. Travers and her staff have put together a list of rules to follow this holiday season. Follow our guidance and you will have a stress-free, fun-filled holiday season, free of orthodontic emergencies!

At Travers Orthodontics in Irving, TX and Coppell, TX, Dr. Kimberly H. Travers and our staff know just how important it is to properly teach your children about maintaining a properly clean mouth. Quality time spent on good dental hygiene is crucial to preventing cavities from forming, as well as avoiding a wide array of diseases that can be triggered by letting your children neglect their teeth and gums!

At Travers Orthodontics, we pride ourselves in offering the best orthodontic care and treatments to help you obtain the smile of your dreams. While braces fulfill this vision, they can also be difficult when it comes to eating. Certain foods will damage your braces, so you need to be more conscious of what you are eating and drinking during treatment. We’re here to help!
