Patients who pick the colors of the month this month will receive an extra Century coin.

So if you have an appointment the month of October you have a great chance of getting lots of extra coins.

Patients can receive extra coins for wearing a Halloween costume, picking the monthly colors and for bringing in Pictures of your decorated pumpkins or holiday decor.

Patients that had homecoming are welcome to bring in photos for extra coins.  Please remind our staff to give you some extra coins.

This month marks the end of the toothbrush charity.  If you need a new toothbrush please donate a $1 to our charity to help Epilepsy research and awareness.  If you don't need a toothbrush but would like to participate you can donate a dollar and put your name on a butterfly.  The butterfly is the mascot of the Epilepsy research program.

This month is National Orthodontic Health Month!  If you know someone who needs braces, invisalign or any type of orthodontic care please refer them to Century Orthodontics.  Do you need a custom mouth guard for the sport you are playing?  We make them in office. 

October 2012 Pumpkin Contest

October's contest is pick your "Team Pumpkin".  We divided our staff into 3 groups and each group had to decorate a fun-kin pumpkin anyway that they liked.  The contest is very simple just vote on the pumpkin that you like best. Any patient or family member of a patient can participate.  At the end of them month we will tally up the votes and pick a winner from each category.  We ask that our patients submit their name phone and address and their vote if this information is not filled out that patient will be disqualified.  

Here are the three pumpkins:

Pumpkin #1

 Here is Pumpkin # 2

 Here is # 3


Here are all three that are placed in our Manchester, Wiedman Rd location.

The girls worked really hard on these.  Patients should stop by the office in Manchester to see them in person if they would like.  Remember that the month of October wear your Halloween costume for extra coins.  Share your support in Breast Cancer Research by getting Pink O-rings.

Patients wanting to help with the toothbrush charity can donate a dollar or more to Epilepsy Research and Awareness and put their name on a Butterfly to Decorate our 3 offices.

Toothbrush Charity

In our office we offer all the supplies our patients need.  We ask if you take a new toothbrush or supplies that that patient make a donation to our toothbrush charity.  Every 6 months we choose a new charity that has hit home with our patients, staff or our local area. If you have a charity that you would like us to donate we just need the information of where to mail the donations to and a little about the charity.

In the past we have donated to Smiles Change Lives, Autism Speaks and Dent County Animal Rescue.  This time we are donating to Epilepsy Awareness.  This charity is close to one of our girls, Angi, her friends little girl has this condition. Angi thought what a great way to help find a cure for this horrible problem that efflices children and adults.

When you get supplies or a toothbrush at any of our offices please donate $1 or more to help others.
