Practice Events
It's important that you choose an orthodontic office that cares about the quality of service that is provided and about the experience of its patients. We care about your orthodontic experience, and we go to great lengths to make sure you have a great time while you're improving your smile.
We take our work seriously, and we take your fun seriously. We want to make sure that you look forward to coming to our office and that you have a great time when you're here. We're always available to answer your questions and keep you updated on the progress of your treatment.
Here are just a few of the ways we provide fun for you and your child ...

Hygiene Incentive Program
Regular dental care is very important during orthodontic treatment. Your orthodontic appointments are not a substitute for regular dental check-ups and cleanings.
Dr. Ingraham encourages you to visit your dentist a minimum every 4-6 months.
Have your dentist or hygienist sign your "Orthodontic Hygiene Incentive Program" card on the date of your cleaning and return the card to us.
Your name will be entered in our monthly drawing for fun prizes as a reward for great oral hygiene!
Share-A-Smile Contest
We want to share a healthy, beautiful smile with everyone. We'll give you cards to hand out to family, friends and acquaintances who want to improve their smiles. When the person with whom you shared our card comes in, your name and your friend's name will be entered in our monthly contest to win a $100 gift certificate to Padre Staples Mall. The more friends you refer to our office, the more chances you have to win!
Super Patient Contest
Win Hooks baseball tickets for compliance and oral hygiene. When you follow our instructions, keep your teeth squeaky clean, take care of your appliances and are on time for appointment, you get an A+ and a chance to win baseball tickets.
