Show Off Your Smile

ClearCorrect is an alternative to metal braces offered at Beim Orthodontics. With similar benefits, this treatment option is more discrete; a perfect solution for patients looking for clear braces in Lake Mary. ClearCorrect straightens the teeth through a series of custom-made, clear, removable aligner braces that move the teeth throughout treatment. They correct the teeth to create a more revitalized, new look, without all the metal and discomfort that traditional braces bring. Patients must wear their ClearCorrect aligners for at least 22 hours per day only removing them to eat and brush and floss their teeth.

Who Can Benefit?


If you are interested in being treated with ClearCorrect, set up an initial consultation with Dr. Beim to determine if you are a good candidate for this treatment option. This treatment is available for teenagers and adults but is not ideal for children entering early treatment, or some senior citizens. Children may not have their molars yet, and seniors may have more complications with their oral health. Consulting with Dr. Beim to see what orthodontic treatment will suit your particular needs is the best thing to do.

ClearCorrect Can Treat:
  • Spacing between the teeth
  • Crowded teeth
  • Overbites and underbites
  • Crooked, rotated or turned teeth
If you do not currently have an orthodontist and live in the Lake Mary, Florida area, contact Beim Orthodontics to discuss ClearCorrect treatment.

Eating With A Damon Smile

Damon System braces are a unique type of self-ligating braces that allow you to eliminate the rubber bands that cause so much trouble for traditional braces wearers. These braces use a steady pattern of pressure to correct your teeth, and they can shift your teeth more rapidly than traditional braces can.

The unique design of Damon System braces helps to reduce the buildup of food particles and debris that can tend to get lodged in the brackets of traditional metal braces. Thus, eating with Damon System can actually be easier because your cleaning job is simpler.

There are several different foods that you might want to focus on during your early days with Damon System braces. The most important thing to remember is that you need to focus on soft foods and non-chewy foods immediately after you get your Damon System braces. Remember to chew carefully and evenly as you start to adjust to your new braces.

As you become comfortable with the braces, consider gradually re-introducing the crunchier and harder foods that you usually enjoy. Most Damon System braces patients are able to eat virtually anything that they usually can, as long as caution is used. However, particularly chewy foods, for example, taffy, are something that you might want to avoid in general.

Some Damon System braces patients tell us that they are successful in eating all the same foods they did prior to braces! Overall, you can expect a very smooth transition into wearing Damon System braces, and you will be able to enjoy remarkably fast smile correction at the same time.

If you are curious about Damon braces or if you have specific questions about how they can help you, please feel free to contact Beim Orthodontics anytime!

Calling All Pokemon Go Trainers!

If you’re one of the millions of Pokemon Go players out there then you’ve probably noticed this fun and extremely addicting game can drain your data plan. Pokemon Go averages from 2MB to 8+MB of data per hour, all depending on the game factor; battling, capturing, and walking. Unless you have unlimited data, the average user can expect to need a data upgrade if played for lengthy periods of time throughout the day. That being said, we decided to step in and assist our patients with this issue.

Beim Orthodontics is happy to announce to our patients, Pokemon Go players can USE OUR WIFI FOR FREE! Yes, that’s right! When you play Pokemon Go at Beim Orthodontics, or our surrounding areas, you can use our WIFI while playing.
