What comes to mind when you think about October? If you are like most people, then you probably think about pulling out your winter jackets and packing up your summer clothes. You may also be enjoying the changing weather and making plans to celebrate the upcoming holidays.

October is also National Orthodontic Health Month. Orthodontists and other healthcare professionals started this campaign to promote their profession as well as general dental health. During this month, your San Antonio Orthodontist, Dr. Keith Blalock will be raising awareness about the importance of orthodontic work. Orthodontic clinics all over the country work together to promote their services.

You may not know what to expect if you have never been to an orthodontist before. If you or your child feel that you may need to get evaluated by an Orthodontist, give our office a call or submit an appointment request online.  Dr. Blalock is a San Antonio Orthodontic specialist helping kids and adults benefit from having straight and beautiful smiles.  Our staff works hard to make everyone feel at home and best of all, your initial exam is always complimentary.  During your initial visit, Dr. Blalock will perform an evaluation as well as x-ray. After the evaluation is complete, he will be able to provide you with a custom orthodontic treatment plan.

So go ahead and take advantage or the Orthodontics Health Month and start your journey to a beautiful new smile!
