Ladd Dental Group

 At LADD Dental Group , we are always striving to stay at the forefront of dental innovation and provide the highest quality care for our patients. Recently, our team had the incredible opportunity to tour the A-dec Equipment and Education Center in Nashville, a facility dedicated to excellence in dental equipment and education. This experience was both educational and inspiring. The A-dec center showcased cutting-edge dental technologies, including ergonomic operatory designs and equipment solutions that enhance both patient comfort and clinical efficiency. By engaging with A-dec’s experts and seeing their equipment in action, we gained invaluable insights into how thoughtful design can elevate the standard of care in our practice. We are especially grateful to our Patterson representative, Ryan, for organizing this event. His dedication to supporting our team and ensuring we have access to the best resources in the industry does not go unnoticed. Ryan’s efforts made this visit sea

 If you’re using clear aligners , you know that each set of trays is a step closer to a straighter, healthier smile. But as you "level up" to your next set, it can sometimes bring a bit of discomfort or adjustment. Here’s a guide to help you make the transition to new trays as smooth as possible. 1. Wear Each Tray for the Recommended Time Clear aligners work gradually, which is why wearing each set for the recommended duration (typically one to two weeks) is essential. This timing allows your teeth to move at a pace that minimizes discomfort and ensures stability. Moving to the next tray too soon can strain your teeth and gums, which can lead to soreness or, even worse, setbacks in your treatment plan. 2. Use "Chewies" for Better Fit "Chewies" are small, spongy rolls designed to help your aligners fit more snugly against your teeth. By biting down on a Chewie for a few minutes each day, you can ensure your aligners are properly seated, which helps distrib

 In a world where marketing budgets are often large and dynamic, LADD Dental Group is taking a fresh, cost-effective approach to reach our patients and communities. In light of shifting cost structures and an evolving healthcare market, we have significantly streamlined our marketing budget. Our renewed focus on organic marketing and word-of-mouth referrals is not only more economical but also more genuine and effective in building trust and connection with our patients. Why Shift to Organic Marketing? As operating costs continue to rise across healthcare, it’s more important than ever for dental practices to use resources wisely. Instead of relying heavily on traditional, high-cost advertising channels, LADD Dental Group is prioritizing strategies that resonate with patients on a personal level. Organic marketing allows us to engage with patients authentically, build relationships, and foster a supportive community around our services—without the expense of paid advertising. The Po

 It’s been just one week since I started my SureSmile Clear Aligner journey, and I already feel positive about my decision. As a dental professional, I’ve seen firsthand how transformative dental care can be for patients, but there’s nothing like experiencing it myself! Here’s a look at my first impressions and why I’m already satisfied with SureSmile. Getting Started with SureSmile Clear Aligners The process began with a simple, straightforward scan at LADD Dental Group , where we used the same advanced dental technology we offer to our patients. After seeing my initial aligners and understanding the treatment plan, I was excited to get started. From day one, I appreciated how comfortable and discreet the SureSmile aligners felt. Comfort and Convenience One of the things that worried me going into the treatment was whether aligners would be uncomfortable. But, I was pleasantly surprised by how seamlessly they fit. SureSmile’s precision in custom-fitting aligners really shows—the
