Ashley's Orthodontic Trivia Board for December

This month's trivia board discusses the following--View the trivia board at your next visit to learn more!

The origin of braces: Reports of simple 'orthodontic' appliances are traced back to several hundred years BC; however some feel that they were "invented" in France in the 1800s. Most people recognize Edward H. Angle as the "father of modern orthodontics" as we know it today, as he helped to design the types of orthodontic braces that led to what we use today.

The importance of flossing: Ashley's trivia question of the month asked "what percentage of the teeth's surfaces are missed (not cleaned) when you don't floss?" Correct guesses earn 2 Greenies!

Look for more fun orthodontic and dental facts next month!
