Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all Moms out there!!! We hope you are able to take time this Mother's Day weekend to enjoy the company of your family. We bow our heads and send our sincere appreciation especially to those dedicated Mothers who drive their children to our office on a routine basis for braces and Invisalign adjustments.

Here are some of our favorite quotes about Mothers:

1. "The moment a child is born, the mother is also born. She never existed before. The woman existed, but the mother, never.  A mother is something absolutely new."  Rajneesh
2. "God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers."  Jewish Proverb
3. “Most of all the other beautiful things in life come by twos and threes by dozens and hundreds. Plenty of roses, stars, sunsets, rainbows, brothers, and sisters, aunts and cousins, but only one mother in the whole world.” Kate Douglas Wiggin
4. “There is no way to be a perfect mother, and a million ways to be a good one”  Jill Churchill
5. "Mother's love is peace. It need not be acquired, it need not be deserved." Erich Fromm
6. “A mother understands what a child does not say.” -Jewish proverb
7. “A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.” Washington Irving
8. “When you were small and just a touch away, I covered you with blankets against the cold night air. But now that you are tall and out of reach, I fold my hands and cover you with prayer." Dona Maddux Cooper
9. "The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness."  Honore de Balzac
10. "A mighty power and stronger Man from his throne has hurled, For the hand that rocks the cradle Is the hand that rules the world." William Ross Wallace
    
    
    
    
    

We can predict your child’s face by the age of 7

As parents, you look at your children from the day they were born and wonder what will become of them? What will they be when they grown up? What will they look like as they get older?

Of course, as with physical appearance, everyone knows that your genes will dictate your children’s facial features. It’s a given that they will look a bit like you and your partner. It has to be…and definitely not look like the neighbor’s face… or there will be issues...!

What if you wish you could change some facial features to make it better for your children? You may have strong upper jaw and an overbite...or you may have a strong lower jaw and a little of an under-bite and you want not want them for your children.

At age 7, the American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) recommends you schedule an orthodontic examination for your child. By the age of 7, the growth pattern in your child’s face continues on the path that the genetic make-up has defined.

At Care Orthodontics, our orthodontist can do an examination and predict your child’s facial growth. We can let you know if there are any dental or cosmetic needs, and let you know if and when any treatment may be indicated. We can provide you a personalized payment plan and help you with obtaining insurance benefits if treatment needed. The best part is:

• Your child’s examination is complimentary
• If no treatment is needed, we will do a follow up exam at 6-12 months at no additional cost
• Your child can join our Kid’s Club and collect Smile tokens for prizes at no charge
• You do not need a referral from your dentist to see us
• Above all, you do not feel pressured into orthodontic treatment until you are ready

At Care Orthodontics, we want to be the orthodontist and expert that you come to love and trust. Above all, we are in existence because we care and we want to make a difference in your smile. We want to give you a best smile possible.

Welcome

Hi. welcome to Care Orthodontic’s blog.  

We have been in practice for nearly a decade and we constantly find ways to communicate our messages, educate our patients, and participate on various activities in the community. 

Dr. Nancy Phan was inspired to become an orthodontist to change people’s perception of self-image and self-confidence through enhancing facial features and brightening smiles. She also wanted to develop personal connection with many of her patients.  After finishing Orthodontic Residency at Saint Barnabas Hospital/Cornell University-affiliated program in New York, she returned to San Jose to start working. Having worked previously at many offices in the Central Valley and in the Greater Bay Area, Dr. Phan was able to gathered her many experiences which have helped her redefined the criteria of which she wanted for her patients in her current practice.
