On-the-Mirror Guides

Flossing and Brushing with Braces

Reinforce each patient's homecare every day for a penny a week. That's what it costs for Flossing and Brushing with Braces -- about a penny a week. And, if that's not a good enough bargain for you, we'll show your patients how to handle minor orthodontic emergencies on Friday nights and Sunday mornings - all for the same penny a week.

One-shot homecare instructions rarely get the job done, no matter how well you explain things. Let's face it, changing human behavior isn't usually quick and easy. It takes time and lots of reinforcement. That's why we designed a homecare guide for the bathroom mirror - at eye level for your patients. If it gets wet, who cares? The laminated guide will stand up in the steamiest bathroom for as long as your treatment lasts -- guaranteed. And, it's space-efficient so it won't take up too much mirror space, especially when it's placed at the outer edge of the mirror.

Preventing Problems with Braces

Reduce problems with broken appliances, missed appointments,  swollen gingiva, decalcification and compliance issues in general. Preventing Problems with Braces is designed to graphically illustrate the consequences of harmful behaviors while in braces such as chewing ice, pens, and pencils and the growing link between sodas and decalcification. The appliance diagram also helps patients and parents tell you exactly what's wrong if something is loose or broken. Also, your name and phone number can be provided on clear labels at no additional cost. 

This is the perfect complement to the detailed instructions on Flossing and Brushing with Braces.

Chances are, the longer you've been in practice the more time out of each day is spent dealing with production-draining retention problems. With the Retainer Guide, you can rid yourself of some of those problems, and increase your word-of-mouth referrals in the process.
 
The Retainer Guides:

- Provide an excellent retention conference checklist.
- Reinforce patient responsibilities for retention.
- Explain care and cautions for fixed and removable retainers.
- Demonstrate retention failures with vivid photographs.
- Clearly state: There's a charge for repair, replacement and retreatment.
- Lower "retention drag" on your productivity and patient relationships.
- Encourage word-of-mouth referrals from patients and parents.
