“What if today we were just grateful for everything?” Charlie Brown
How nice it is that we have a time each year to reflect on all the things we are thankful for and to express our gratitude to others.
Loved Ones
On a personal basis, we give thanks for our families, our friends, for our health, and for our general well-being.
Good Food
Thinking about what you are going to have for your Thanksgiving feast? The good news is that traditional turkey feasts are loaded with foods you can eat while you have braces. So, you can still load up on traditional turkey or ham, salad, mashed potatoes and gravy, biscuits, and desserts. There are a few foods to avoid: avoid raw vegetables (carrots, broccoli, cauliflower) nuts, corn on the cobb (cut corn is ok), and pecan pie.
Modern Advances in Technology
As orthodontists, we could make a long list of things we are grateful for. We could start with the advances made in technology that makes our jobs easier and help our patients have their best smiles. And, there are so many choices today for the type of braces that work best for the individual patient’s needs.

Dr. David McDonough
