Dr. Bruntz attends SureSmile Conference....

Recently Dr. Bruntz was in Florida attending the annual SureSmile conference. SureSmile is the advanced technology we have at Orthodontic Partners that uses 3-D imaging to create custom made archwires which provide the best results and reduces treatment time by about 40%. Orthodontic Partners is the worlds most experienced provider of SureSmile. Fortunately, Dr. Bruntz was able to spend some time with his family at Disney World while he was there. This was Carrigan's first visit and was quite excited to meet Micky Mouse. Landon is more adventuresome and loves both Space Mountain and Splash Mountain.

Introducing Wes Michael....

Orthodontic Partners would like to introduce you to the newest member of our family, Wes Michael. Wes is the grandson of Katherine, our 3-D Imaging Technician. Wes was born 3/22/11 at 8:21am weighing 6lbs. 5 oz. and is 17 1/2 inches tall. This is Katherine's 1st grandchild and she is loving every moment. Please join us in congratulating Katherine.

St. Patrick's Day Contest Winner

Congratulations to Madelyn Klupfell, the winner of Orthodontic Partners' St. Patrick's Day Trivia Contest. Madelyn was the 1st person we drew who had all the correct answers. She is thinking about using her prize money to purchase accessories for her American Girl dolls.

This contest was pretty tricky so in case you need to brush up on your St. Patrick's Day Trivia here are the answers:

1. St Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland.
2. St. Patrick died in 461 AD
3. This is one a lot of people got wrong... St Patrick did not drive the snakes out of Ireland. That's just a well known myth.
4. We wear green in memory of Ireland and so we don't get pinched.
5. A Leprechaun is a make believe Irish Fairy who makes shoes... not a little man with a red pointy hat as many people thought.
6. It is said there is a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.
7. There are four leaves on a lucky clover.

We hope you enjoyed our contest and had a wonderful St Patrick's day. May the luck of the Irish be with you.

Guess Who's Expecting

Orthodontic Partners is very pleased to announce that we are going to be having three new additions to our Orthodontic Partners' family. Two of our assistants, Nicole and Ciera, are soon to be Mom's and Katherine, our 3-D Imaging Technician, is soon to be a Grandma.

Ciera just found out she's expecting so it's too soon to know if it's a boy or a girl but we're hoping for one of each. Ciera's little bundle of joy is due October 30th.

Nichole is a little farther along and is going to be having a little girl. She and her husband want to wait to see their daughter's beautiful face before deciding on a name. Nicole's little girl is expected to make her debut on May 29th.

Katherine's daughter, Michele, is expecting a little boy on the 27th of March. His name will be Wes Michael. We have no doubt that Katherine is going to make sure her grandson is thoroughly spoiled.

With these new additions, the children and grandchildren of the Drs and Staff of Orthodontic Partners' will increase to 30 children and 3 grandchildren. What a great reason to SMILE!
