Ask The Orthodontist Parents are the Heroes in Orthodontics By far the individuals with the most unappreciated role in the orthodontic treatment of a child are the parents. It is the mom or dad that bears the responsibility for making the appointment, bringing the child to the appointment, coordinating schedules, and usually being unappreciated in the process. Look at usually any mother's (and many times father's) planners and it is amazing that an additional monthly commitment is even Nelson Hersh DDS, MS workable.

Who picks the child up from soccer or dance or whatever and rushes to get to the orthodontic appointment on time? Who gets the phone call at the most inopportune time and must change their schedule at the last minute to bring the child in for some unexpected emergency? Who hears the words, "I can't find my retainer?" Who worries about the child not brushing well enough, and who gets the complaining that something else is more important? The answer to all these questions is mom or dad. The parent is also the one who hears the gripes and woes of the patient. Parents are the "heroes" of the orthodontist. It is the parent that must put their child before all else, and make a financial commitment because they know whether their child wants braces or not, it is the "right" thing to do. That is one reason why we have an expansion of our office planned. We want to make things easier for mom or dad and have an environment that shows we care and appreciate the parent. The parent is the "unsung" hero of orthodontics and we tip our hats to the moms and dads who make our jobs easier. And lastly, here's something you rarely hear, THANK YOU!
