<div style="text-align: center;">
Dr. Joe Lenz, Dr. Mike Lenz, Dr. Mary Lenz, Dr. Mark Lenz, Therese Lenz and Dr. Kristin Lenz Galbreath represent the second and third generations of dentists in their family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Liam Galbreath is only six months old, but the odds are pretty good that he’ll become a fourth generation dentist in his family.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Both of his great-grandfathers were dentists, his grandfather and uncle are orthodontists, his mother, uncle and aunt are all dentists. And his grandmother is a dental hygienist.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If he doesn’t become a dentist, he’ll always be assured of excellent dental care and straight teeth.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After Dr. Mark [second generation] completed his orthodontic residency at Marquette in 1984, he opened his private orthodontic practice in Racine, was appointed to the faculty of the orthodontic department at Marquette University as an assistant clinical professor, and became board certified by the American Board of Orthodontics in 1991. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lenz Orthodontics opened a second location in Waterford in 2008.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Therese has worked alongside her husband in the orthodontic practice since the beginning and the couple raised their three children, all of whom attended Marquette University and became dentists. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Son Dr. Mike Lenz [third generation] finished his Master’s Degree and a Certificate of Specialty in Orthodontics in 2018 from Marquette and joined his father’s practice in August. He and his wife Dr Mary Lenz met as undergraduates at Marquette. Dr. Mary practices general dentistry in Twin Lakes, Wis.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Dr. Mike described his work as 1/3 scientist, 1/3 engineer and 1/3 artist, while his dad enjoys the transformation in confidence and self esteem, in both children and adults, “as we create beautiful healthy smiles!”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“People always remember two dates,” Dr. Mark said. “When they got married and when they got their braces off.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With new technology utilized by the practice, the orthodontists explained they no longer use headgear, extractions of teeth are rarely needed, the braces are smaller and more comfortable and the forces applied to straighten the teeth are 500 times gentler.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
“And with our new intra-oral scanner we no longer take ‘goopy’ impressions!” Dr. Mark said. “It’s definitely not your parents’ experience with braces.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He noted that about 30 percent of their practice is treating adults, including an 82 year old.”</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

“It all started with our fathers and the value they placed on family and service to others.” Dr. Mark and Therese agreed. “And perhaps their legacy will extend to a fourth generation.”</div>

At our orthodontic practice, offering clear aligners is an important treatment option for both adults and teenagers. When utilized properly by a trained orthodontic specialist, <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/invisalign.php"><span class="s1">Invisalign</span></a>, the leading clear aligner brand, can provide both teens and adults with the beautiful straight teeth they’ve always wanted -- without braces.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
A consultation with a trained orthodontist is the only way to know for sure whether it’s the appropriate treatment option, but understanding the benefits of Invisalign can help you make a decision as to whether it could be the right fit for your teen or yourself:</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<ol class="ol1">
<li class="li1"><b>They’re Completely Clear: </b>Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible. No closed-lipped selfies here! If you or your teen are self-conscious about appearing in photos, Invisalign could be the right choice.<br /></li>
<li class="li1"><b>They’re a Confidence Booster: </b>A recent study found that teens wearing Invisalign are twice as likely to experience a boost in self-esteem while in treatment than teens treated with metal braces. Based on what we’ve seen with our patients, the same holds true for adults!<br /></li>
<li class="li1"><b>They’re Removable:</b> Invisalign aligners are removable, allowing our patients to eat and drink whatever they'd like while in treatment and play certain sports more easily.<br /></li>
<li class="li1"><b>No Goopy Impressions:</b> We utilize the<a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/itero-scanner.php"><span class="s1"> iTero digital scanner</span></a>, which means no more mouthfuls of the old goopy impressions! So your treatment will be smooth and comfortable from start to finish.<br />
</li>
</ol>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>And here’s a benefit for adults (whether the patient or parent!): </b>With Invisalign there won’t be any brackets to become loose or broken, so there are potentially fewer emergency visits to the orthodontist, and fewer interruptions to your busy schedule!</div>
<div class="p2">

These days you can do almost anything with the click of a button. Order school supplies. Get a ride across town. Watch your favorite movie. Order food delivery. It seems like every day there’s a newer and easier way to do almost everything. We’ve been programmed to accept that anything can be ordered online and delivered right to your front door. However, at Lenz Orthodontics, there is one thing that we believe has no easy replacement: orthodontic treatment. There is no match for trained, experienced professionals when it comes to your dental health.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The <a href="https://www.aaoinfo.org/"><span class="s1">American Association of Orthodontists</span></a> (AAO) agrees. They recently issued a <a href="https://www.aaoinfo.org/1/online-orthodontic-companies"><span class="s1">Consumer Alert</span></a> listing key questions to ask about direct-to-consumer orthodontic companies. <a href="http://res.cloudinary.com/dorhu9mrb/image/upload/v1525201184/AAO_Consumer_Alert_DIY_2018_flier-hl.pdf"><span class="s1">You can download a print-friendly version here.</span></a></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The issue is that many direct-to-consumer orthodontic companies do not involve the in-person evaluation and/or in-person supervision of your treatment we provide at Lenz Orthodontics. This type of supervision is important because there is more to creating a healthy, beautiful smile than moving the visible portions of your teeth. If not done correctly any dental work can lead to potentially irreversible and expensive damage such as tooth and gum loss, changes to your facial profile, and other issues. An orthodontist like Dr. Mark & Dr. Mike have many tools in his or her arsenal to help create your beautiful smile - Invisalign, for example, is just one of them. It’s important to have a fully qualified and certified orthodontist involved when making any changes to your teeth.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>The Top 10 Questions To Ask</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
The AAO advises that when researching orthodontic treatment (including treatment models from direct-to-consumer companies like SmileDirectClub, Candid Co., Smilelove, SnapCorrect, Orthly, etc), you should consider many key questions, some of which include:</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<ol class="ol1">
<li class="li3">As part of your treatment, are comprehensive diagnostic records like x-rays taken before your treatment?<br />
</li>
<li class="li3">As part of your treatment fee, do you receive any in-person visits to a dentist’s or orthodontist’s office during your treatment?<br />
</li>
<li class="li3">Is only one treatment type offered (such as invisible aligners or a certain appliance)?<br />
</li>
<li class="li3">What are the possible risks (financial, health, etc.) associated with your orthodontic treatment?<br />
</li>
<li class="li3">Who is responsible for detecting any issues that may occur during your orthodontic treatment? Is it you? If it is a doctor not associated with your treatment, who pays for those check-ups?<br />
</li>
<li class="li3">If an emergency arises, does the company have a dentist or orthodontist in your area that you can see in-person? If not, who would cover the costs associated with seeing a dentist or orthodontist in your area?<br />
</li>
<li class="li3">If you are injured or have another dispute involving your orthodontic treatment, how is it handled (litigation, arbitration, etc.) and what rights do you have? <br />
</li>
<li class="li3">Does the treatment model comply with the dental laws in your state? To check your state’s dental laws, click <a href="https://www.aaoinfo.org/state-laws-and-regulations"><span class="s1">https://www.aaoinfo.org/state-laws-and-regulations</span></a>. Information for your state dental board can be found at <a href="https://www.aaoinfo.org/aao/state-dental-board-info"><span class="s1">https://www.aaoinfo.org/aao/state-dental-board-info</span></a>.<br />
</li>
</ol>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>Where You Receive Your Health Care Is A Very Important Personal Decision</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<br />
Remember that orthodontic treatment is not a product or device – it is a professional, medical service. Dr. Mark & Dr. Mike earned their dental degrees (DDS) at Marquette University and each went on to fulfil post-graduate residencies in Orthodontics. They have a commitment to regular continuing education and have years of experience providing high quality orthodontic treatment to their patients.<br />
<br />
Before making any decision about orthodontic treatment, consider doing some research and having a complimentary in-person consultation at Lenz Orthodontics.<b> </b><i>Our friendly team is waiting to answer any of your questions and start you or your child on a path to a gorgeous smile.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></i></div>

One of the things I love most about my profession is the positive effect it has on our patients’ lives. Each day I am able to work together with our patients toward creating beautiful, healthy smiles. Most importantly, however, I thoroughly enjoy getting to know all of our patients and watching them grow throughout treatment!</span></div>

I wanted to be just like him, and still do! Like my dad, I was also very interested in art and science and learned that orthodontics is truly a way to combine both disciplines. The passion my dad has for the art in each smile he creates is truly what sets him apart, and I am excited to share in that enthusiasm.</span></div>

My son, Dr. Michael Lenz, will begin seeing patients this summer at our practice. He continues the tradition of oral care in the Lenz family that started with my father, who was a dentist in the community, and extends to Michael’s wife and siblings, all of whom are dentists. You can imagine that I’m a very proud dad! And don’t you worry, I’m not going anywhere.</span></div>

It’s truly a wonderful feeling to have worked hard for 36 years and to know that my dedication to the community will continue on through my son’s work. At the same time I look forward to partnering with my son to offer patients the same caring service and state-of-the-art treatment that they have come to know from Lenz Orthodontics, all while taking the practice to the next level. </span></div>

We all know the saying, “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover”, but the reality is: we all <span style="font-style: italic; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">do</span><span style="font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. First impressions are really important and your smile says a lot about you. That’s why at Lenz Orthodontics, we care about not only helping our teens, but about helping adults as well. A straight smile is crucial to making that first impression count...and metal braces as an adult isn’t necessarily the most desired look. Because of this we offer Invisalign Adult! The clear alternative to metal braces. </span></span><br />

<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.6560000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Every parent wants their child to be able to smile with confidence but for many that's not the only reason to investigate orthodontics at an early age. While the average age for orthodontic treatment is around 12 years old, we at Lenz Orthodontics have a mission to focus on children 7 and up in order keep with the American Association of Orthodontics guidelines. Why 7 and up, you ask?<br /><br />Early Orthodontic treatment has many benefits. An orthodontic consult at a young age can catch future issues and adjust for them before they become problems. Some of these issues include:</span><ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Airway Obstruction: well developed airways allow normal breathing through the nose when the mouth is closed. While this may sound trivial, nasal breathing is important because it’s now known to be vital to good health. Airway obstruction has been linked to developmental delays, sleep disorders, behavioral disturbances, and later can lead to hypertension, stroke, heart disease and even premature death. These sound scary but the treatment is easy if we are able to catch it early on! Plus we all can relate to our little ones that struggle with allergies! </span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Crossbites: by age 7 most children’s permanent molars and incisors have come in. A trained eye, like Dr. Lenz’s, can see early on if crowding or crossbites will be an issue as the rest of your child’s permanent teeth come in. The earlier treatment begins, the easier it will be. This is because your child’s jaw is less developed at this early age and can be guided along the right path rather than working to reverse issues at a later age. <br /></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Overcrowding: Traditionally, orthodontists would say wait until age 11 or 12 to treat a crowding problem, but the problem won’t get any better by waiting. Early treatment has been proven to correct narrow arch and create space for adult teeth as well as for the tongue so it may function correctly when swallowing. Plus, early treatment can avoid the need for future tooth extraction or jaw surgery. BIG PLUS!</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>The benefits to Early Orthodontic treatment are clear:</b></span><ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Early treatment can also regulate the width of the upper and lower dental arches, gain space for permanent teeth, avoid the need for permanent tooth extractions, reduce likelihood of impacted permanent teeth, correct any habits that can cause bad bite later on, and eliminate abnormal swallowing or speech problems. In other words, early treatment can simplify later treatment. Speaking of…</span></li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Two Phase Treatment. Phase 1 works with your young child to make space for their permanent teeth. Phase 2 begins once they’ve arrived. Often children who undergo Phase 1 treatment have a much shorter Phase 2. This makes life easier for both them and you as their schedules get busier and busier.</span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">Not every 7 year old will need Phase One treatment, but if they do, and if it is caught early by a trained orthodontist, it could make a big difference in the outcome of treatment later. That’s because Dr. Lenz can take advantage of growth and possibly avoid extractions when working with a younger child. <br /><br />Knowing the importance of early orthodontics is only part of the battle. Dr. Mark Lenz has 35 years of experience in orthodontic practice and thousands of beautiful smiles credited to his name. We call it the Lenz Smile!</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span>

These periodic stops can happen as many as 20-30 times in an hour and cause a lack of oxygen to the brain, waking up your child so that they restart proper breathing. All that waking up can leave one pretty sleepy the next day - even if they don’t remember waking up! </span></div>

Looking for these symptoms also falls neatly in line with the Phase 1 treatment philosophy of promoting proper jaw development for young kids so that braces, when they’ve hit their pre-teen years, are a simpler process. As both an Orthodontist and parent, Dr. Lenz makes a point of asking all parents if they’ve noticed any of these symptoms when he first consults with new patients. </span></div>

But I’m often asked for more information about Invisalign® Teen.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>

Your teen simply wears these aligners over their teeth and changes them out for a new set of aligners periodically—most often every two weeks. Little by little, your teen’s teeth gradually shift into place.</span></div>

I hope you find it helpful!</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">1. INVISALIGN TEEN CAN BE AS EFFECTIVE AS TRADITIONAL BRACES.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">When worn according to the customized plan I set in place, Invisalign Teen can be as effective as traditional braces. In fact, the chances are very high your teen will be a candidate for Invisalign as it can treat many of the common issues we see. Call us at 262.634.6900 (Racine) or 262.534.3010 (Waterford) to set up an appointment to find out for sure.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">2. THERE ARE PRACTICAL ADVANTAGES OF INVISALIGN TEEN OVER TRADITIONAL BRACES.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">With Invisalign, the aligners are removable, so your teen can play sports, musical instruments and eat their favorite foods without the worry that braces will get in the way. Plus, it’s much easier to brush and floss normally to maintain proper oral hygiene.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">3. AN INVISIBLE SOLUTION CAN BOOST CONFIDENCE.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Research shows that parents underestimate the extent to which teens feel self-conscious about their smile—and their appearance in general. Wearing braces can often make this lack of confidence even worse. Invisalign Teen removes a potential source of anxiety, giving them more confidence during what can be a challenging time in their lives.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">4. YOUR TEEN HAS TO WEAR THE ALIGNERS MOST OF THE DAY.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Invisalign Teen is most effective when worn 20 to 22 hours per day and changed approximately every two weeks. In fact, Invisalign Teen aligners have blue indicators that fade over time when used as directed so I can track compliance.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 700; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">5. YOU’LL SPEND LESS TIME AT MY OFFICE THAN WITH TRADITIONAL BRACES.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.3800000000000001; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt;">
<span style="background-color: transparent; color: black; font-family: "century gothic"; font-size: 12pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Invisalign Teen often requires less time with your orthodontist than traditional braces do. There are no adjustments to make, no brackets to re-glue and no broken wires to fix. After the initial appointment, follow-up appointments are usually scheduled every four to six weeks.</span></div>

<br />
Having a good bite not only makes it easier to eat and speak but will enhance your dental and overall health as well. Straight teeth aren’t just pretty, they’re healthy too. Teeth that are properly aligned are easier to clean reducing the risk of gingivitis and periodontal disease. <br />

<a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Invisalign </a>straightens your teeth without wires and brackets, using a series of clear, customized, removable appliances called aligners. It's virtually undetectable, which means hardly anyone will know that you're <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">straightening</a> your <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">teeth</a>. To ensure the best possible results we decided to compile a list of a few tips for our patients currently using Invisalign.<br /><ul>
<li>Wear your aligners for a minimum of 2 weeks, before moving into the next aligner. </li>
<li>Sharp or rough edges can be smoothed with an emery board. </li>
<li>Change into your next aligner before going to bed so they settle in overnight. </li>
<li>Keep your aligners in their case while eating to avoid losing them. Keep the out of reach of any household pets, especially dogs! </li>
<li>If you need to, you can soak your Invisalign aligners in a mix of 50/50 white vinegar and cold water to brighten them. </li>
<li>Wear your aligners for at least 20 hours a day. </li>
<li>Always carry a toothbrush. </li>
<li>Only drink water when you're wearing your aligners. </li>
<li>Don't put your aligners in hot water. </li>
<li>Don't use toothpaste to clean your aligners. </li>
</ul>

Taking a selfie is an art form in itself. A great selfie is more than just a quick camera click, it actually takes a level of skill to capture and edit the perfect one. After some practice and a few hundred captured pictures (we're only joking) these simple techniques we just know will make you a selfie master in no time at all.<br /><br />· <b>Capture Your Best Angle. </b>Instead of taking the picture head-on, turn your head a little to the right or left, or maybe hold your camera a little higher. Try different angles to show off your best features.<br /><br />· <b>Show Off Something New.</b> If you decide to take a selfie to show off something new, like…oh we don’t know, maybe your <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">braces</a>, make sure that you frame the photo in a way that highlights the new accessory that has you so excited.<br /><br />· <b>Have Expression.</b> You can never go wrong with smiling! Play around with different smiles and expressions and have fun! No matter what, a smile is the best expression you can wear.<br /><br />· <b>Focus on Lighting. </b>A great light source is an essential part of taking any photograph. Natural light is best, so start taking those selfies near a window or outdoors.<br /><br />· <b>Don't Use a Mirror.</b> Just stretch your arm out, point the camera toward your face and click.You can use your face forward camera to make it easier!<br /><br />#Selfies have been popular for a few years now, and now with our help, you can take the perfect one. Upload those selfies to all of your feeds…Instagram, Facebook, anywhere and everywhere. Are you a patient of <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Lenz Orthodontics</a>? Then tag us in your selfies, we'd love to see your smiling faces!<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;">

Lenz Orthodontics and the American Association of Orthodontists have a prompt announcement for consumers about “DIY” orthodontic treatment. It is with great urgency that we emphasize to you all to be cautious about the trending “DIY” <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">orthodontic treatment</a> because straightening your teeth on your own can lead to lifelong dental problems. <br /><br />Do-It-Yourself videos and websites are popular among today’s culture, and while so many great ideas come from several of these outlets, there are some things that you just shouldn’t do yourself! Straightening your teeth or attempting to move your teeth as a “DIY” project is definitely one of the things you should not be doing. Moving and straightening teeth is a medical procedure that needs to be supervised by an orthodontist. It’s important for you all to be wary of any videos or websites that advise you to use objects such as rubber bands, dental floss, or anything else in order to get straight teeth. According to the American Association of Orthodontists, “Moving teeth without a thorough examination of the overall health of the teeth and gums could result in the permanent loss of teeth, which may result in expensive and lifelong dental problems.”<br /><br />If you have any further questions regarding “DIY” orthodontics or are curious about straightening your teeth, please contact <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Lenz Orthodontics</a> at our <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Racine</a> or <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Waterford</a> location.mlenzortho1558@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15176809176484592785noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347021367213147583.post-42555968008221868152017-04-18T16:21:00.003-07:002017-04-18T16:21:46.341-07:00Raspberry Sunrise Smoothie Recipe<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

As the flower buds are peeking out and birds are starting to chirp, it's time to leave those thoughts of snowstorms behind. Spring can be a wonderful time to explore the outdoors or go for a walk around town. Get your family moving together and establish some healthy habits, away from the electronics indoors. We have 5 fun ideas to get you in the mood for the loveliest season of the year. <br /><br />1. Dust off the sports gear. Find a kick a ball, throw a Frisbee, shoot hoops, whatever sports activity that you and your family enjoy doing. <br /><br />2. Get dirty in the yard. Mow the grass. Pull weeds. Till flower beds. Replant. Cut back. Find the fun in getting sweaty, and teach your kids how to manage the landscaping while you do it.<br /><br />3. Explore the outdoors. Hike a trail and check out the plants budding out of the ground.<br /><br />4. Go to a baseball game. The beginning baseball season is one of the annual markers that warm weather is just around the corner. If you don't have it in your budget for pricey pro tickets, look into local league games, college, or even high school games to watch.<br /><br />5. Make Something. Whether you're experimenting with a new recipe or creating a new craft, making something new will give your kids a sense of satisfaction.<br /><br />After being cooped up all winter, everyone's ready for some fresh Spring air. We hope you will step into the warm weather with suggestions of fun activities for the entire family. mlenzortho1558@gmail.comhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15176809176484592785noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7347021367213147583.post-4931626361434535142017-04-07T09:44:00.005-07:002017-04-07T09:44:55.601-07:00More On Mouthguards<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

A mouthguard is an essential piece of athletic gear that should be part of your standard equipment from an early age when it comes to protecting your mouth<br /> <br />Contact and collision sports such as boxing and martial arts are higher-risk sports for the mouth. Any athlete can experience a dental injury in non-contact activities too, such as gymnastics and skating.<br /><br /><b>Types of Mouthguards</b><br />Mouthguards can be custom made for your mouth by your dentist or orthodontist. However, if you can’t afford a custom-made mouthguard, you should still wear a stock mouthguard or a boil-and-bite mouthguard from the drugstore.<br /> <br /><b>Protecting Your <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Braces</a></b><br />A properly fitted mouthguard may be especially important for people who wear braces. A blow to the face could damage the brackets or other fixed <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">orthodontic</a> appliances. A mouthguard also provides a barrier between the braces and your cheek or lips, which will help you avoid injuries to your gums and cheeks. <br /> <br />If you're an athlete and a patient at <a href="http://www.mlenzortho.com/">Lenz Orthodontics</a>, talk to Dr. Lenz about selecting a mouthguard that will provide the right protection for you. Although some mouthguards only cover the upper teeth, Dr. Lenz may suggest that you use a mouthguard on the lower teeth if you have braces on these teeth. <br /> <br />Also, be sure to remember if you have a retainer or other removable appliance, do not wear it during any contact sports.
