A few helpful videos about orthodontics, from Dr. Farina

Dr. Farina and his team at Farina Orthodontics would like to point you to a few interesting webisodes about orthodontics, located on the YouTube page of the American Association of Orthodontics, or AAO. There, they post some very pertinent videos about orthodontic treatment, and the new technology in orthodontia. These include "Orthodontic Treatment Basics," "Common Bite Problems Seen in Children" and "Does My Child Need Braces?"

We think you may find these webisodes interesting, as well as enlightening. If you have any questions about the videos, or your treatment here at Farina Orthodontics, please give us a call.

Happy New Year from the entire team at Farina Orthodontics!

Happy Holidays from Farina Orthodontics!

The holidays are here, and as Dr. Farina and his team reflect on the year that was, we’d like to ask you, our wonderful patients: What do you love about the holidays? Being with your loved ones? A clean slate for the new year? Opening presents by the fireplace? All the delicious food? Also, what gift are you most looking forward to getting this year?

We’d love if you shared with us all the things you love about the holidays. Stay warm, and don’t forget to stay away from those sweets!

New technology at Farina Orthodontics

Are you thinking about getting braces? If yes, you're in luck, because Farina Orthodontics will make your experience with braces as easy as possible. That's because Dr. Farina is a certified provider of In-Ovation braces, which make your treatment more comfortable and enjoyable than traditional braces.

With In-Ovation® and In-Ovation® C system braces, achieving an attractive, healthy smile has never been easier or more comfortable. Their unique, patient-friendly design means that you have less chair time, reduced discomfort and far fewer appointments than with older style braces.

In-Ovation® is gentle because it softly guides your teeth into alignment. It uses a free-sliding technology, which places little to no pressure on teeth. As a result, your treatment not only takes less time and requires fewer appointments, but also is far more comfortable than with traditional fixed-wire braces.

If you have any questions about In-Ovation® or your treatment at Farina Orthodontics, please give us a call!

Patient review for Dr. Farina

Dr. Farina and his team just love getting patient reviews. And lately, Farina Orthodontics, serving Tampa and its suburbs, has been getting some pretty great patient testimonials! We thought we'd share one with you today. Recently, we asked our patients how they were spending their Thanksgiving. One patient had this to say that made all of us proud:

"Spending a braces-free Thanksgiving in Boulder, Co with family that only knows me with crooked teeth. This is going to be a wonderful holiday!!! Thanks Dr. Farina and the Farina office :)"

It's testimonials like these that make us proud of the work we do. "When I see a shy child or adult smile with confidence, it’s a wonderful sight–and I want to make it happen as much as I can. I want to make it happen for you," Dr. Farina says.

Happy Tuesday!
