WIN a Floss Like a Boss Kit from Dr. G!

When it comes to creating smiles that last for a lifetime, we know that orthodontics is one part of a overall dental health program. That’s why we refer our patients back to their primary dentist for cleanings at 3 month intervals instead of 6.

We are offering a Spring Cleaning Giveway of 10 “Floss like a Boss” kits to our active patients that participate in having a cleaning by May 27th 2021.

Here’s how the contest works:

Step 1: Book a Cleaning

Be sure to call your favorite dentist right away to get in the schedule since they often book up for hygiene cleanings pretty fast. Make sure it’s during the contest period that runs until May 27th, 2021.

Step 2: Have the Front Desk Verify Here

Step 3: Watch for Winners on Instagram!

Dr. G and the OrthoArts Smile Team will be announcing winners through May 28th on Instagram! Be sure to follow us @orthoarts

Step 4: Floss Like a Boss!

Keep your braces free and clear by utilitzing the best tools and techniques we show you in the office. Brush after meals and you will be ready for your next cleaning at your dentist in 3 months. 🙂
