Dr. Meehan, reminding patients about our upcoming Halloween Costume Contest!

Trick-or-treat!

In the spirit of October’s sweet and spooky holiday, Halloween, Dr. Meehan and our team would like to invite all of our patients to participate in our Halloween Contest.

Now through Nov. 8th, we encourage our patients to post their Halloween photos on our Facebook page, email them, or bring the photos into our office. We will be giving away two $50.00 gift cards for the Best Costume and Most Creative Costume!


As always, we encourage patients to give us a call if you have any questions about the Halloween Contest, or if you would like to schedule your next appointment with Dr. Meehan.

Halloween Safety Tips, from Meehan Orthodontics

Trick-or-treat! In the spirit of October’s sweet and spooky holiday, Halloween, Dr. Meehan would like to remind all of our patients to be safe while celebrating with friends and family. The American Association of Orthodontists, or AAO, has provided trick-or-treaters with some tips for a ghoulishly good time.

A few Halloween safety guidelines:
• Young children should always be accompanied by an adult
• Carry a flashlight
• Wear a light-colored or reflective costume
• Choose face paint over masks for young ghosts and goblins
• Have an adult inspect all treats before the children dig in


Many treats can cause havoc for trick-or-treaters who are going through orthodontic treatment. If you happen to damage your braces, please give Meehan and our staff a call immediately. Typically, small problems can be solved over the phone.
