Keeping our patients safe, healthy and smiling has always been our top priority. While we’ve always maintained hospital grade sterilization, and use proper personal protective equipment with recent times, we’ve upped our game even more by adding air-scrubbers to our ventilation system, check-in screening stations for all patients, hand sanitizers at our entrances and exits, as well as reducing the number of patients inside our office at any given time. We take all of these extra precautions to maintain patient safety during these uncertain times. For more information about how we keep our patients and staff safe, visit us at fantasticsmiles.com

What Are Incognito Braces?

Dr. Mauro has a passion for aesthetic orthodontic treatment and has lectured to doctors across the country on the subject.

Incognito braces are braces that are hidden behind the teeth. ROG Orthodontics is the only Circle of Excellence Provider of Incognito Braces in the state of Pennsylvania. Which means we do more than anyone else. We can deliver you a fantastic smile utilizing braces that no-one can see and because incognito is fully customized to your teeth and your case, we can deliver you that fantastic smile in the same amount of time or less than regular braces.

Advanced computer software produces custom brackets and a series of wires to correct your bite more efficiently than traditional lingual (braces that are put on the inside of the teeth) options. These braces perform the same overall function as traditional braces, by applying slow, constant pressure over time, which causes the teeth to move into their desired position—only they can’t be seen. They are more effective than plastic aligners. These braces can correct complex problems such as rotations, bite discrepancies, as well as crowding and/or spacing.

Your complimentary initial consultation will give you the opportunity to meet our doctors and team, learn more about orthodontics, receive a complete initial exam, and find out which treatment options will best meet your needs.

Ever wonder when is the perfect time to take your child to see an orthodontist? Age 7. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends children see an orthodontist at age 7 when their adult teeth are starting to come in.

Patients call Dr. Natalie Parisi “Dr. Nat” because “Dr. Parisi” referred to her father and ROG co-founder, Dr. Vincent Parisi!

I’m often asked “When should my child see the orthodontist?” and ideally, that’s around age seven. The reason is that the six year old molars have erupted, the anterior teeth are in and we’re able to evaluate their bite and how their jaws are growing, weather or not the teeth have enough space and making sure that there aren’t any crossbites. Another reason that we want to see your child at age seven is because we can evaluate their airway. There’s growing studies in the orthodontic field about how a child’s airway can affect their growth and their development. At ROG 90% of these seven year old’s don’t need orthodontic treatment at this time but this visit to our office will give you the peace of mind that you are not missing something. Contact our office to schedule your complimentary visit today. We’re looking forward to meeting you.

Dr. Denny Mauro explains the difference between corporate-owned and doctor-owned practices, and how, unlike corporate-owned practices, our doctors will be there for every step of your fantastic smile journey. Unlike corporate-owned practices that only care about money, we’re a doctor-owned practice that prides itself on giving patients the best care from day one until the day your treatment is done. So, book your free orthodontic consultation today at fantasticsmiles.com.

One trend that’s happening in Orthodontics today is the formation of corporate owned practices. While we have multiple locations, ROG is a doctor owned practice and the owners of the practice work in the office every day. That can make a huge difference in the quality of your results. Corporate owned orthodontic offices, just like any other corporation, have to answer to a bottom line. What can also be seen in corporate settings is a revolving door of doctors. Here at ROG, your doctors own the practice, so we are going to be there every step of the way, from the start to the finish of your treatment. That way, we can ensure the results you expect in delivering your fantastic smile.

If you are wondering when should my child first see an orthodontist? When it comes to smiles, 7 is the lucky number. The American Association of Orthodontists recommends all kiddos see an orthodontist when they turn 7. While 95% of ROG’s patients do not need orthodontic treatment at that time, the idea is to begin orthodontic monitoring in the middle of childhood when jawbones are still at their most malleable. It can forestall serious problems in the future and make corrective treatment down the road simpler and quicker.

By seeing an orthodontist while their mouth is still growing, the doctor can more easily intercept potential problems such as narrow jaws, which can lead to crowding, overlapping and crooked teeth; and bad bites, medically known as malocclusions, and include underbites, overbites, open bites, and crossbites. Some of these problems can start being corrected with appliances early and others result from bad habits, including thumb-sucking and tongue pushing, that we can nip in the bud.

Like with every initial consultation at ROG, your child’s first visit is complimentary. All consultations include a digital x-ray along with an initial exam so the doctor can determine if there are any issues and if any orthodontic actions need to be taken at the time. While adults are increasingly seeking orthodontic treatment and can achieve great results, when a patient starts treatment at a very young age, orthodontics can often achieve results more efficiently and for less money. Contact the professionals at the ROG Orthodontics if your child is ready to see an orthodontist.

Ask ROG: Am I too old for braces? With Dr. Nat. Patients call Dr. Natalie Parisi “Dr. Nat” because “Dr. Parisi” referred to her father and ROG co-founder, Dr. Vincent Parisi!

A funny question we get all the time is “Am I too old for orthodontics?” and the answer is absolutely not. There’s a misconception that as we age our teeth don’t move as well, and that’s just not true. At ROG Orthodontics we treat patients from age 4 to age 86. I even treated my mother at age 80 with braces. Just remember that at ROG your initial evaluation which includes your x-rays and your photos is free of charge. In today’s world, there’s so many aesthetic orthodontic options available for adults. Come in, visit us and we will let you know what those options are for you.

True or False: Your teeth won’t move as well when you’re older.

Answer: False. At ROG, we see patients as young as 4 and as old as 86. Which, means you’re never too old to get a great smile. So, book your free orthodontic consultation today to get the smile you deserve. Your complimentary initial consultation will give you the opportunity to meet our doctors and team, learn more about orthodontics, receive a complete initial exam, and find out which treatment options will best meet your needs.
