May is National Teen Self-Esteem Month! From Drs. Orchin & Bailey

May 1st, 2012

At Orchin Orthodontics, we know image is everything. Especially for today’s teenagers. At an age when image is so important, the thought of having braces may intensify the already-delicate confidence of today’s teens. Well, May is National Teen Self-Esteem Month, and during this time, parents are encouraged to act as positive role models, help stop negative self-images, and improve confidence and security among teenagers.

Dr. Orchin, Dr. Bailey and our team will tell you one of the great ways to improve your confidence is to improve your smile. And that begins with a consultation at our convenient Washington D.C. After all, what better time to avoid having crooked teeth in your adulthood than coming in for a consultation with Dr. Orchin and Dr. Bailey?

We proudly provide traditional braces, SPEED braces, SureSmile and Invisalign Teen for today’s image-conscious teens, and invite you to give us a call to schedule a consultation or ask us on Facebook!

What is SureSmile, and how is it different than regular braces?

April 28th, 2012

You’ve probably heard from friends or family that wearing braces is a long-term commitment, taking more than two years on average. With SureSmile orthodontic treatment, getting braces isn’t what it used to be. In fact, we have our SureSmile numbers! We all have heard the saying that “seeing is believing” and now here are our practice numbers:

We have realized better results than the national average in less than 1 year! Orchin Orthodontics’ patients are saving time in treatment, visits to our office and wire changes (which means less discomfort) just as we promised when we launched SureSmile. Our entire team and patients are thrilled with these findings.

With less overall treatment and fewer visits to our office compared with the national average, SureSmile has all of us smiling more! We welcome you to come for a consultation to find out why we are so excited to share this fantastic technology and orthodontic experience with you. Please give us a call at 202-686-5100.

See you soon!

“When should my child visit Orchin Orthodontics for a consultation?”

April 16th, 2012


At Orchin Orthodontics, knowing when to treat patients is just as important as knowing how to treat patients.

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that all children see an orthodontist by age seven. This allows Drs. Orchin and Bailey to make an early assessment for possible skeletal problems such as a severe cross-bite (narrow jaw), overjet (protrusive upper teeth), underbite (upper front teeth are behind the lower front teeth), or any other problem that is best treated while the patient is growing. Drs. Orchin and Bailey use appliances that are designed to capture growth and correct the malocclusion. Dr. Orchin and Dr. Bailey have the experience to know when it is best to start treatment and when to step back and allow Mother Nature to do her work.

If you or a family member is already in treatment with Drs. Orchin and Bailey, we are able to schedule a no charge look-see appointment for a younger sibling. This is our way of introducing Dr. Orchin and Dr. Bailey to the patient while he gets a baseline reading on the patient. Please call us at 202-684-9227 for an appointment!
