A few helpful webisodes about orthodontics, from Dr. Hilliard

Dr. Hilliard and his team at Hilliard Orthodontics would like to point you to a few interesting webisodes about orthodontics, located on the YouTube page of the American Association of Orthodontics, or AAO.

There, they tend to post some very pertinent videos about orthodontic treatment, as well as state-of-the-art technology in orthodontia. These include "Orthodontic Treatment Basics," "Common Bite Problems Seen in Children" and "Does My Child Need Braces?"

We think you may find these webisodes interesting, as well as enlightening. If you have any questions about the videos, or your treatment here at Hilliard Orthodontics, please give us a call.

Happy New Year from the entire team at Hilliard Orthodontics!

Happy Holidays from Dr. Hilliard and team!

The holidays are here, and as Dr. Hilliard and his team reflect back on 2009, we’d like to ask you, our wonderful patients: What do you love about the holidays? Being with your loved ones? A clean slate for the new year? Opening presents by the fireplace? All the delicious food? Also, what gift are you most looking forward to getting this year?

We’d love if you shared with us all the things you love about the holidays. Stay warm, and don’t forget to stay away from those sweets!

Reading is Essential, says Dr. Hilliard!

Dr. Hilliard and his team know a lot of kids are home for the holidays. Some are hanging out, some are playing sports, while others are reading. Dr. Hilliard and staff encourage kids to read, and that's why we'd like to point them to a great web site that combines education and fun: "Time for Kids," Time Magazine's news magazine that covers a wide range of real-world topics kids love to learn about - and motivates kids to read!

On the site, you can find games, quizzes, cool pictures and more interesting things that will keep your mind healthy and balanced - and ready for school!

Happy reading!

I was always impressed that every time I went he knew exactly what had changed with my teeth from the last visit. I also appreciate the professionalism of all his staff.
