Although a lot has changed in 25 years, one thing that has<br />
remained consistent is the outstanding reputation of Dr. Moroco<br />
and her team, which now includes Dr. David Simon.<br />
“I<br />
want to say a million great things about Moroco Orthodontics!<br />
I was immediately greeted by a very warm and friendly<br />
front desk. At 55 my teeth were shifting, so I decided to get<br />
Invisalign. I met with Dr. Moroco and I knew right away she was<br />
going to help me. She has a great reputation and is simply the VERY<br />
best out there,” said Sheri.<br />
“As a family, we are so honored to be a patient of Moroco Orthodontics.<br />
From the first call we were greeted with professionalism and a<br />
caring representative. When we arrived, they knew my son by name<br />
and welcomed us with open arms. Their technology is outstanding,<br />
and their professionalism is like none other. We are truly excited to<br />
get braces, and who says that? This was the best decision we’ve made<br />
for our family and the health of my son’s teeth,” said Randye.<br />
People not only rave about the doctors and the team but also<br />
about their consistent investment in new technology that makes<br />
the entire orthodontic experience more comfortable and efficient<br />
for patients of all ages and in all parts of the world.<br />
At Moroco Orthodontics, gone are the days of messy impressions,<br />
painful, lengthy and frequent appointments that can often be associated<br />
with past orthodontic treatments.<br />

New Patient Consultation<br />
“Believe me! I have been working with patients in this area for<br />
30 years and when my prior patients return for the orthodontic<br />
care of their children and/or retreatment for themselves they are<br />
amazed at the technology we have added to the practice to elevate<br />
the patient experience and quality of care!” said Dr. Moroco.<br />
Some of the most exciting and impactful technology investments<br />
have included:<br />
1) iTero scanners which eliminate the need for old-fashioned alginate<br />
impressions while providing 3D views of the teeth for diagnostic<br />
purposes.<br />
2) 3D Xray images that provide a more accurate view of tooth/<br />
jaw positions which leads to more accurate treatment plans and<br />
treatment timing.<br />
3) 3D Printers which provide detailed, accurate models of the patient’s<br />
teeth on which to design and fabricate appliances.<br />
4) Dental Monitoring TM, an AI-powered platform that allows<br />
patients to use their smartphones for weekly scans of the appliances,<br />
teeth and bite.<br />
The reports from these scans are uploaded for the doctors to<br />
review and can provide information that would not necessarily be<br />
detected by the human eye and/or by the patient.<br />
“The level of detail we read in these reports allows us to more<br />
accurately plan the patient’s next ‘in person’ appointment thereby<br />
eliminating the need for unnecessary visits to the office to check<br />
on treatment progress,” said Dr. Simon. “In a nutshell, we have a<br />
closer eye on treatment progress with less visits to the office. Also,<br />
