Whether you are finishing up your orthodontic journey with Braces or Invisalign, you will receive Vivera retainers to keep retention of your beautiful smile! Vivera retainers are clear and practically invisible when worn.
At Kennell Orthodontics once you come for your very last visit with us, you will receive a link to the Vivera Subscription Program! This link will allow you to order Vivera retainers and have them shipped right to your house whenever you are in need. From the link, it will bring you to log in or create an account on My.Invisalign.com. This will help YOU save time by not having to come to the office and worry about fitting it into your schedule. This will also save time and avoid any teeth shifting because they will come directly to you!
You get to choose how often you want new sets of retainers! You can choose to receive new retainers every 6 months to a year, or every couple of years! Regardless you will be getting a good deal by ordering on your own through the Invisalign app/website.
1 Set of Viveras - YOU SAVE $50
2 Sets of Viveras - YOU SAVE $125
3 Sets of Viveras - YOU SAVE $200
Ask about our Vivera Subscription today! As long as you have an I-tero scan through our office you will be able to order. Even if you are a new patient, or a previous patient who hasn't had a scan yet, we will help get you set up. We want to ensure you are getting the best quality retainers while saving time and money!
No this has nothing to do with Star Wars... LightForce is a new orthodontic treatment that Kennell Orthodontics is starting this May! Before trying our first few cases, we would like you to know what it is all about! This will hopefully interest you enough to try it yourself!
So let's start with that LightForce braces even are. Traditional braces are metal, but LightForce braces are 3D printed ceramic brackets. One of the biggest differences between the two are that metal braces are basically one size fits all, whereas the ceramic LightForce brackets are custom to each persons teeth being able to digitally plan treatment.
Some other benefits of the LightForce treatment is that just like the orthodontic assistants can place the attachments for Invisalign, they will also be able to solely put the LightForce braces on without Dr. Kennell! This will help with using our time efficiently in a days work. LightForce patients won't have to wait for Dr. Kennell to come over to place the brackets if he is caught up with another patient, he would actually be able to see more patients alongside a LightForce bonding appointment. He can also use this time to work on finishing other treatment plans for other patients. It truly is a win-win!
Since Dr. Kennell can digitally plan out the LightForce treatment he can visualize how the process will go. Movement is different in every person, but it will atleast give him a better overview because the brackets are customized!

LightForce is something we are trying out and hope to find that is an additional, efficient way of doing orthodontic treatment! There is nothing wrong with still getting Traditional braces, clear braces, or Invisalign too. Here at Kennell Ortho we want to make sure we are keeping up to date with what is new in the Ortho World! We will have more updates later this week, we are officially starting this Thursday! Hopefully over the next few moths we will be able to provide more educational and informative content about LightForce for you all!

Wear a mouthguard!! This is the best way to keep your orthodontic smile protected while playing sports!
We can provide you with a mouthguard in the office at any time! We also have an emergency supply box outside of each office in Laconia, Plymouth, and Littleton that you can help yourself to at anytime! If you purchase a mouthguard on your own just make sure it is one that is braces safe!
Here are some examples:
If you have braces DO NOT boil the retainers to fit to the teeth, instead they will just rest in the mouth. You are welcome to trim around the edges to make it more comfortable if needed. If you are in Invisalign you can either remold the mouthguard every time you switch your aligners, or you don't have to boil it and it will rest in your mouth.
Important Reminders:
Keep your mouth guard clean - rinse before and after each use
Store in a perforated container to let your mouth guard dry out
Avoid chewing on the mouth guard - this can cause broken brackets
There are weekly posts sharing our patients getting their braces on and braces off or starting/ending their Invisalign treatment! We also post the monthly activity so that our patients can keep up with their rewards points! We always make sure to share pictures from any trips Dr. Kennell takes his team on, any fun celebrations going on at the office, the desserts and fun treats that Dr. Kennell makes, and so much more - you'll have to check it out!
While you're at it, if you had a great experience at our office, make sure to leave us a Google or Facebook review at any point! This will also earn you 50 bonus points! We truly appreciate your feedback! Thank you - The Kennell Ortho Team.
