Happy New Year from Weiss Orthodontics!

The year is almost over, and Dr. Weiss and staff would like to ask all our patients: what was memorable about 2009 for you, and what are you looking forward to in 2010? Do you have a New Year’s resolution, or any exciting plans for the coming year?

Dr. Weiss and his team would like to point you to a few interesting webisodes about orthodontics. The American Association of Orthodontics, or AAO, has a YouTube page we enjoy visiting regularly. There, they post some very pertinent videos about orthodontic treatment, and the new technology in orthodontia. These include "Orthodontic Treatment Basics," "Common Bite Problems Seen in Children" and "Does My Child Need Braces?"

We think you may find these webisodes interesting, as well as enlightening.

If you have any questions about the videos, or your treatment here at Weiss Orthodontics, please give us a call.

Happy holidays!

Patient reviews for Dr. Weiss

Weiss Orthodontics, serving Memphis, Millington and surrounding areas, has been receiving some great patient reviews lately! Check out what our current patients are saying about Dr. Weiss and his team!

"Dr. Weiss and his staff are very friendly!! I can't wait to see the finished product of my new smile. As soon as I walked out of the office, I believe Dr. Weiss sent my mom a gift for referring me. Awesome! I look forward to working with him and his staff!!!!" -- Erica G.

"Thus far, my Orthodontist and his staff have been incredibly courteous and knowledgeable. I'm looking forward to my treatment and experience over the next 20 months!" -- Tiffany M.

"Shows he is putting forth effort to keep up with technology. While some doctors may have the lazy and slacker dentist attitude: "We will do it the old way until we are forced to change" Dr W obviously does not settle for what will do the job, he continues to challenge himself to find ways to do it better and with concern for the patient's comfort and convenience." -- Jennifer H.
