It's not going to be easy at first and in the beginning, foods you can eat will be limited. You'll want to stick to foods that are soft, fluffy and easily mashed up. Pancakes, oatmeal, bananas, soups, cooked vegetables, applesauce, mashed potatoes, mac & cheese, and soft ice cream - just to suggest a few.
Using a soft-bristled toothbrush, begin by brushing the outside of your teeth and braces, holding the brush tilted at a 45 degree angle towards the gum line. Brush along the top and bottom of the braces using light pressure, making sure you cover every surface very carefully. Don't forget to brush the teeth all the way in the back and behind your back molars.
The Damon System bracket is self-ligating, so it eliminates the need for elastic ties to keep the wire in. Without a tie, the braces stay clean and friction is reduced, allowing your treatment to progress more efficiently and with less discomfort along the way. Damon System braces are available with both a metal and a clear option.
We use a Herbst in more severe overbite cases as an alternative to jaw surgery. This appliance can even be used on adults and is believed to stimulate lower jaw growth, which delivers stability after your braces come off. Any device that is used in your mouth to change the shape of your jaw or move your teeth is referred to as an appliance.

I did some research about Invisalign and Mashpee Orthodontics. I was able to be seen very quickly after. I always wanted to improve the alignment of my teeth and I finally felt I found the perfect clinic for it after my first visit. They are equipped with the most recent high technology to serve clients. The staff is amazing and meeting Dr. Nick was a pleasure.

I am a dental hygienist & have referred patients to Dr. Nick for 26+ years. The results he achieves with the patients are great. When I decided to get Invisalign myself, there was only one orthodontist I would trust with my care and that is Dr. Nick. His staff have always been helpful & knowledgable. Thanks Dr. Nick!

Staff is friendly and always helpful when scheduling or rescheduling. Answers questions. Would be better if they had later appointments available where I don't have to pull them from school, but hey what can ya do. 2 kids in braces (regular wire and invisiline) with Dr Nick and so far so good. Had a few brackets break and wire stick out and was fixed ASAP.

Doctor seems to have no clue what he's doing with my braces as I went to get two brackets put back on after they fell off and the exact same brackets came off within hours of getting them on. I didn't even eat anything before they fell off and I've been back 3 times for those exact same brackets. Doctor keeps blaming me for eating foods I'm not supposed to even though I haven't eaten any crunchy or chewy foods and at over $6k this is just absolutely unacceptable. Would be 0 stars if it weren't for his assistants being friendly.

My daughter was doing treatment with Nicholas Zafiropoulos and she had the brace for 2 years this is her last week of treatment and unfortunately she had a seizure and two brackets fell off. Than I brought her for appt today and she went by herself inside and come outside crying saying he was rude and rough putting them back on and told her that he didn't believe she has seizures or had a seizure.
The minute we pay off for the braces that's the service he will provide for you. They also don't let parents go inside with kids saying that is not enough space to mistreat kids the way he wants. Keep your kids away from this bad Doctor

We have had such a wonderful experience with all 3 of our children at Mashpee Orthodontics. The fact that the kids actually look forward to their appointments is pretty remarkable. They adore Dr. Nick. They are always telling me how funny he is. The office staff are organized and competent as well as friendly. I personally love being entertained by the beautiful fish tank while I'm waiting.
More importantly, in terms of care. I have really appreciated the patient approach Dr. Nick has. He is willing to wait and see how the children's mouths change over time. There is never any push for radical or immediate procedures. My daughter has completed her orthodontia and has a beautiful and confident smile.

I went to Dr. Nick for Invisaligns. I am an adult female, and wanted the Invisaligns because I conduct seminars. The initial meeting with Dr. Nick was very friendly; however, it immediately went downhill from there. I asked him if he worked with the Invisalign product, and he assured me that he did. I felt as if I was his first patient because his staff had to consult with the Invisalign sales person, and they were not sure what they were doing. Dr. Nick was not very patient with his staff and let them figure out how to get my teeth ready for the Invisaligns.
During my visits he didn't have a professional manner, and always seemed rushed. I had to get an entire new set of Invisaligns after a year, because my teeth didn't align properly. He wanted to blame me for not wearing them all the time, even though I did. I had to go through the entire procedure again. I had about 2 months left to the end of my 'second' set, and I didn't see much improvement.
When I asked him, what was going on, and what would the next steps be, he was very dismissive and said we'll see in 2 months. I think he thought I was one of his 6 or 7 year old patients. I stopped because of his lack of knowledge, and I was getting sore throats. He never called personally to find out why I stopped. I guess he felt he got his money, and that's all he was concerned about. Find another Orthodontist. Don't make the same mistake that I did.

We didn't have any problems with Dr. Nick while he was treating my son, but I have never in my life (and I grew up with physicians) had a dentist treat us so poorly while he treated my daughter. He displayed a gross lack of professionalism, leaving her and my husband in the consult room for 45 minutes, after he was rude to my 15 daughter and made her cry.
My husband waited and waited and he cowardly left the building. He never returned our phone calls, and just as bad is his office manager who shares the same lack of professionalism. We moved to a new orthodontist who indicated that he has seen quite a lot of Dr. Nick's patients who left his practice for various reasons.
