A Parent's Perspective (Part two of Austin's Story)

"Austin’s Insignia kit arrived the last week of April. I brought him to the office since it was an early release day so he could get his braces on. He was very excited. He ate a really good breakfast that morning since he wasn’t sure how he’d feel later on. I stayed in the office while Robin worked on him. I didn’t want to get in the way and I had lots of work to do to keep me busy. It went really smoothly and he was done in no time! All new patients get a care package with items to help them take care of their teeth. Dental hygiene is even more important when you have braces!  Robin gave him detailed instructions on how to brush and floss, what he can and can’t eat and what to expect these first few days. He promised to follow all the directions and I gave him some ibuprofen in case he got sore. "
