Kids laugh around 400 times a day. Grown-ups just 15 :-(


Maybe we can up that to 16 today with this:

You know you need to floss your teeth but it can be tricky with braces. When we place braces on our patient's teeth, we give them a package of Plackers Orthopicks. If you are having trouble finding them locally, you might give Walgreen's a try.

What a great season for Dr. Kevin's Pick the Winners. We had quite a few patients vying for the grand prize NFL jersey right up through Week 17. But Adam M. came up as our grand prize winner by a total of 1 point! Adam's #10 blue Andrew Luck jersey is a perfect fit for him! Thank you to everyone who played our Dr. Kevin's Pick the Winners this past year.  Now, all we have left of football for the 2012 season is to see which Harbaugh brother ends up with a Super Bowl ring!

Happy New Year!

Happy 2013, everyone!  As we start the New Year, we want to remind everyone that January 2 and January 3 are Pajama Days at Jarrell Orthodontics.  The members of Team Jarrell will be wearing their pjs to work and ask that all patients do the same.  Patients who wear their pajamas to their appointment on January 2 or January 3 will be entered to win a $10 itunes gift card!  Enjoy your New Year’s Day!

Jarrell Orthodontics Has Been Nominated for "Best Dentist" in Kokomo

Thank you, Kokomo!  We have just discovered that Jarrell Orthodontics has been nominated for best dentist in the 2012 Best of Kokomo. (why not best cookies or coffee bar? We don't know!) But regardless, we would LOVE to have your vote!

Mitten Tree Donations Due December 17

We are still collecting donations of mittens, gloves, hats, and scarves for our Mitten Tree. Several patients had asked about the deadline for donations to the Mitten Tree. As such, we wanted to let you know that our deadline is Monday, December 17. The items on the tree will be taken to the Salvation Army for distribution to those in need on Tuesday, December 18. If you have any questions about this project, please give Carrie Giannakos a call at 453-4261, ext. 18.  Thank you & Merry Christmas!

National Cookie Day!

December 4 is National Cookie Day. According to the theultimateholidaysite.com, cookies were something of a fluke: "It's crazy to think that the cookie was an accident, but back when ovens didn't have temperature gauges, bakers would dribble a little cake batter in the oven to be sure it was ready. Finally someone clued in to the fact that these little edibles were amazing and the cookie -- from the Dutch word keokje, meaning 'little cake' -- was born."
