Wilson Orthodontic TeamDr. Svetlana Lekht and Dr. Ron Wilson heads the team and they offer their services in many places including Gainesville, Hoschton, Oakwood, Cleveland GA, Dahlone, Flowery Branch GA and other nearby Hall County areas.

At the Gainesville practice, one can get different varieties of braces for kids and adults as well. Early orthodontic treatment and the right braces for kids can give them a healthy smile in the future.

Do You Qualify for Invisalign?

Many people, especially teens do not like braces to show up when they smile, so clear braces are the best option for them. This is why the expert team puts forward Invisalign, which provide straight teeth with removable and invisible aligners.

For teens, specialized Invisalign Teen at affordable rates are also available here. Invisalign Teen are clear braces that are almost invisible, and as they can be easily removed, create no problem with flossing or brushing.

The team says, “We are the only licensed Premier Preferred Provider of Invisalign in Gainesville, and we also offer the patients a complimentary consultation for determining whether this advanced treatment is the right choice for the patient, so that they can get the best orthodontics treatment.”

Being a member of American Association of Orthodontists, Dr. Wilson is also making an attempt to educate parents with encouraging their kids to wear mouth guards while playing sports and games.

“I want to ensure that my teammates and patients are protected properly,” adds the doctor, “and I want them to use protection gear like mouth guards to stay away from facial, mouth or teeth injuries.”

The doctor and his team also remind people, athletes, and coaches about the importance of mouth guards for children, as they can suffer facial injuries in sport activities. The majority of parents agree with the fact that their kids do not wear facial protection like a mouth guard while playing sports.

The Smile for a Lifetime Foundation (S4L), an international nonprofit organization that provides orthodontic care and free braces to underserved children with financial challenges and special orthodontic needs, announced today that it has partnered with Boys & Girls Club of America (BGCA) to help S4L chapters throughout North America find qualified applicants for their local orthodontic scholarship programs. Through S4L’s partnership with BGCA, young people who are served by some 4,000 community-based Clubs across the country will have the opportunity to learn about S4L and apply for its orthodontic treatment scholarships.

Boys & Girls Clubs of America is dedicated to introducing the young people we serve to life-enhancing programs to help them develop self-confidence and reach their full potential as productive, responsible citizens,” said Sharon Hemphill, senior director of health and life skills for BGCA. “The gift of a smile can transform a child’s life. By working with Smile for a Lifetime, we will be able to offer Club members the opportunity to receive free braces and most importantly, a beautiful, long-lasting smile.”

S4L was founded in 2008 by Dr. Benjamin Burris in an effort to link children and teens of low-income families with pro-bono orthodontic scholarships. Since its inception, the foundation has treated more than 800 children who could not afford braces and has grown to an international nonprofit organization that currently serves more than 108 chapters in 38 states and Canada. Local orthodontists form S4L chapters in the communities they serve and individually treat six or more young people annually. Local BGCA staff members are encouraged to nominate members ages 11-18 who would benefit from the S4L program by visiting www.s4l.org.

“Finances should never stop a child from achieving the dream of a straight smile and S4L is committed to touching the lives of our youth by awarding thousands of orthodontic scholarships to deserving kids,” said S4L National Board President Dr. Ronald Redmond. “Given our shared goal of fostering self-confidence among our nation’s youth, we believe our partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America is the perfect union for providing our nation’s young people with a brighter future.”

S4L scholarships are funded through local orthodontists like Dr. Wilson in Gainesville and primary sponsor Ormco Corporation—a leading manufacturer and provider of advanced orthodontic technology and services. Ormco provides the orthodontist with the braces used for treating each S4L scholarship recipient.

If you have any questions about S4L and orthodontic scholarships, please e-mail Trey Taylor, Executive Director at: trey@wilsonbraces.com - Wilson Orthodontics.

Damon System Helps Bethany Hamilton Smile Again

January 3rd, 2012

Inspirational Pro Surfer and Damon System patient Bethany Hamilton Encourages Others to Smile through Adversity

There are not many people who don't know about Bethany Hamilton and her incredible story of her shocking shark attack as a young teen in 2003.  Since then, Bethany has gone on to inspire millions due to her amazing determination and attitude. She shares her astonishing story in her bestselling autobiography Soul Surfer which in April 2011 was released as a major motion picture. Not only does Bethany continue to compete in the ASP World Professional Surfing Tour, but she tours the world to share her story of triumph and to prove that with faith and belief anything is possible.

“After being treated with Damon Braces I couldn't be happier. The results of having braces not only improved my smile, it boosted my confidence” – Bethany Hamilton

After the shark attack Bethany will tell you she struggled through many trials and tribulations, which took a toll on her confidence and self esteem. When asked, Bethany will tell you that "after being treated with Damon Braces I couldn't be happier. The results of having braces not only improved my smile, it boosted my confidence." Now, with help from Damon System braces, Bethany is able to smile through adversity.

Damon® System official endorser, Bethany Hamilton relied on the trans-formative Damon System to quickly and comfortably improve the health and beauty of her smile. Known for triumphantly overcoming a horrific shark attack, Hamilton now helps to promote the Damon System and encourage teens, children and adults of all ages to smile through adversity, regardless of the challenges life throws their way.

"Smiles are a blessing and an infectious tool for spreading happiness and bringing joy to others," said Bethany. "The Damon System transformed my smile, allowing me to confidently share my story of perseverance and encourage others undergoing adversity. I'm glad to be a part of the Damon System team and I look forward to sharing the positive changes and incredible results that I experienced with this unique orthodontic treatment."

Bethanys' Damon System Story

Bethany began orthodontic treatment at age 14 for a severe underbite with significant crowding and a narrow arch. She also had an open bite, which means there was open space between her upper and lower teeth when her jaw was closed. These types of cases are typically among the most difficult to treat and often require surgery. Bethany relied on the Damon System instead of traditional braces for her treatment.

The light pressure used in the Damon System stimulates broad, natural arch development and typically delivers results up to 25 percent faster than traditional braces, according to clinical studies. While traditional braces require elastic ties to hold wires in place, these ties can accumulate bacteria and often require "tightening" that can hinder tooth movement and prolong treatment.

In contrast, the Damon System combines "tieless" braces with high-tech memory-shaped wires that don't need to be "tightened." Damon System braces are easier to keep clean, which promotes better patient hygiene throughout treatment. Additionally, treatment with the Damon System rarely requires tooth extractions and frees patients from the use of headgear, rapid palatal expanders and other invasive appliances. The cost of orthodontic treatment with the Damon System is comparable to that of traditional braces.

Bethany is one of more than three million Damon System patients who have achieved incredible results over the last 10 years. From adults to teens, today's healthcare consumers want fast, comfortable and virtually invisible orthodontic care. With the Damon System, orthodontists can deliver on all three of these essential patient requests while also producing a remarkable smile. The Damon System continues to improve smiles and Bethany is an awesome brand ambassador. Her positive attitude, determination and character continue to inspire countless people.

Damon System Donate to the Smile for a Lifetime Foundation

In honor of National Orthodontic Health Month, Ormco, the makers of Damon System Braces donated one dollar to the Smile for a Lifetime Foundation for each new "like" of the Damon System Braces Facebook page this was limited to the first 5,000 people who participate through the month of October. The Smile for a Lifetime Foundation is a non-profit, charitable organization comprised of local chapters throughout the U.S. of which Wilson Orthodontics is one. Its mission is to create self-confidence and quality orthodontic treatment for patients who may not have the opportunity to achieve a beautiful, straight smile without financial assistance. Both Bethany Hamilton and the Damon System are making this joint Facebook charity event possible.

Invisalign Clear Braces

October 24th, 2011

Invisalign Clear Braces – See Real Results – Fast!

A beautiful smile is a major part of one’s personality and enhances self confidence. Beautiful, well balanced and straightened teeth guarantee a beautiful smile. Many people have some issues with their teeth shape and spacing and feel unhappy about this natural disorder. Many people feel bad about this and seek out an orthodontist for some treatment. The proper shape of teeth gives a boost to one’s confidence and today people are really concerned about their appearance. Aren’t you?

Braces are considered a revolutionary tool in the dentistry profession and people feel relieved when they come to know that their de-shaped or faulty teeth can now be fixed. This is not only for beauty and appearance purposes, many people face health problems because of issues with their teeth and gum alignment. They really NEED braces to avoid any further teeth problems.

Braces are wrapped around the teeth for a certain period of time and this keeps them in the desired position. Fixing the braces is done by the experienced professionals only and one should be careful while taking this treatment as having problematic teeth is still better than having none at all. It is not as costly as it can be for a person when the problem worsens leading to much more pain and higher cost of repair. This type of orthodontic treatment can be useful for people of all ages. Normally, adults seek this type of services and experience a radical change in their smile and appearance. However, this treatment is also valid for children who face some kind of teeth disorder and it can be fixed at a young age.

This orthodontic treatment works in an effective manner and is carried out with the help of metallic or ceramic bounds worn around the teeth. These can be permanent or temporary and there are many options now available in this treatment and all of them are here to facilitate the patient during his or her treatment. The duration of this treatment is dependent on the nature and severity of the problem. Dentists give a particular set of instructions along with the treatment and one need to be careful about these. There are different types of braces and this choice of which braces to wear is not yours. It is dependent on many factors and all of these finally determine the types of braces you will be wearing if you have some kind of dental disorder. It is largely dependent on the type of problem you are facing and the choice of your orthodontist specialist.

Metal braces are the most commonly used ones and are used by most orthodontists. But these metals braces are found to be problematic for many people and efforts have been made to find out alternate options with this regard. Ceramic and clear braces are the other types of braces that are in vogue these days. Clear braces are the most liked type of braces and they have many advantages. The most important benefit of clear braces is that they are transparent. People who undergo an orthodontic treatment have a bad feeling while wearing the ordinary metal or colored braces. These can looks odd whenever they open their mouth thus making them feel uncomfortable. This problem is eliminated by the use of clear braces as they are transparent and one cannot easily notice them.

Clear braces are different from the ordinary ones in every way. They are made up of metal plus plastic thus giving them a transparent look. One can wear them for longer times if required as it does not give a bad feeling to the person who wears them. Clear braces are especially liked by adults as they are more conscious about their appearance. Another benefit of these braces is that they can be taken off by the user at any point in time and they can them be put in again. This easy usage allows him to live in a more relaxed way and he or she does not have to visit the orthodontist again and again. This obviously saves money for him making it a really cool option for those who are planning to have such a treatment in near future.

Invisalign and Invisalign Teen

Invisalign and Invisalign Teen are the leading brand of braces that is more similar to clear braces and is categorized as one of its types. These braces include a group of mouth guards that are not supported by brackets. These are made up of ceramic and this makes them a bit more brittle when compared to the ordinary metal braces. An important factor that needs to be considered in this regard is the effectiveness of treatment. It is important that the selected braces give the desired results within time. Otherwise the purpose behind their use will not be served.

One should be very careful about the selection of the appropriate treatment for their teeth as these are the most important part of one’s personality. Getting orthodontist treatment should be well planned and carried out with great care so as to avoid any mishaps.  Clear braces are a good option or those who seek teeth alignment treatments. They can give good results if carried out by an experienced practitioner. Clear braces have a clear dominance over the traditional metallic braces and are favored by many people. Although the final choice of the type of braces suitable for you is dependent on many factors, you can still choose these clear braces for your teeth alignment treatment and enjoy the benefits of invisible and effective braces.

Clear braces are a good choice for those who are hesitant to go for an orthodontist treatment. There is nothing wrong with wearing braces but people sometimes make fun of those who wear them. This is particularly a common problem for kids and they feel shy about wearing braces. Clear braces for kids can solve this problem and they can go through an orthodontic treatment with full confidence.
