How important is your smile? From Dr. Fleming

A beautiful, healthy smile is a wonderful asset for people of any age. At the office of Harold A. Fleming, we provide the highest quality of orthodontic care with personalized service and a comfortable atmosphere.

And speaking of smiling, in a new poll conducted by Glamour Magazine, people were asked, “If you had to pick between having perfect teeth, eyesight or hair, which would you choose?

Well, 44 percent of folks out there are choosing teeth! In addition, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, or AACD, conducted a study and found that 99.7 percent of those polled believed a smile is an important social asset. Respondents said straightness, whiteness, cleanliness, as well as the sincerity and sparkle of a person’s smile were all important factors not only socially, but career-wise as well.

Contact our office to schedule your complimentary orthodontic consultation. Our friendly staff looks forward to meeting you and starting your transformation to a beautiful smile that will last a lifetime.
